I remember Sears and Fred meyer stocking Neo Geo and TG16. There were Atari stores still though and iirc lynx and maybe jag was sold at Radio Shack

Where in PNW are you? I only vaguely recall Neo Geo at freddys. On a very high shelf.

For rentals, there was a place 12 miles away that had all the early Neo Geo games.
For purchases, Die Hard Gamefan.

Eh, hey hooked me up with free shit alot and sent me the superior Jap version of Last Resort. Come to think of it, their Neo Geo stuff was never shrink wrapped. Welp.

toys r us

I remember the horror days of BUYRITE GAMES in the late 90's/early 2000's

They would sell Neo stuff and throw all their stickers and bullshit on them. They were awful.

Also didn't charge extra for the Import copy of Last Resort (the U.S. copy apparently suffered from slowdown even with the extra memory).
