Golden Axe: Beast Rider was released in October Unlike most of the other games in the series, it is an adventure game very similar to The Legend of Zelda. The story line continued the theme of the original Golden Axe games. The game's unit of currency is horns, and it is to be imagined that the hero cut these off of the enemies he killed much like Conan in the film Conan the Destroyer. Released for the Sega Game Gear in , this adventure title follows the legend of the character Ax Battler.
The player moves around a top-view overworld and enemies randomly attacked. However the player can not see them like in Zelda II. When a battle begins, the game zooms down to a platform-style fighting environment. After killing the foe or the foe wounding them the hero returns to the overworld. Unlike previous Golden Axe games, the player can learn new attacks and moves at the training dojos in each town.
The currency in this game is pots, the traditional Golden Axe magic-usage item. Pots double as both currency and as an offensive attack. Released in in the arcades and in for the Sega Saturn. Unlike the games before it, Golden Axe: The Duel is a one-on-one fighting game featuring characters who appear to be descendants of some of the characters in the original game.
It had a poor reception in both markets; Golden Axe fans shirked from its Street Fighter-like combo moves, but fans of the more popular fighters did not think it had enough combos. Sega Wiki Explore.

For those interested primarily in lower prices on rare home games, MVS carts, particularly loose carts or incomplete kits, can offer a cost effective alternative.
Most MVS cartridges cost substantially less than their home counterparts. This lower price can be associated with their lack of decoration as most were designed to be installed inside arcade cabinets and lack cartridge artwork or box artwork, the high set-up cost of purchasing the MVS system, and the prevalence of bootleg cartridges.
However, in recent years a growing market has emerged for complete MVS arcade kits. Because many of the items in an MVS kit were designed to be discarded by arcade operators, finding complete arcade kits can be difficult and thus the prices for some complete MVS kits can be quite high.
Because of the conflicting requirements and desires of the two MVS sub-groups, they rarely compete with each other for games. Counterfeit or bootleg software is regarded in the collectors community as having zero value or very low value. Such software has a reputation for audio and video flaws, and is generally disparaged by fans of the Neo Geo systems. The Neo Geo was particularly notable for its ability to bring arcade-quality graphics directly into the home. As time went on, programmers were able to further tune the games to produce higher quality graphics than previous years and eventually beyond what was initially thought possible for the system.
One of the pack-in games with the original Japanese release was NAM, a side-scrolling shooting game that featured multi-layer scrolling backgrounds. By , games like King of the Monsters demonstrated the Neo Geo's ability to produce graphic detail that matched or surpassed contemporary arcade games from the period. This landmark game brought visual graphic damage to the characters' faces when hit, as well as large character sprites in combination with zoom effects to intensify the action.
This zoom feature was also used in the following year's Samurai Shodown , whose even more elaborate graphics and gameplay won it Electronic Gaming Monthly's award as the Game of the Year and launched a successful franchise. The Neo Geo also became known for its shooters, with the first successful title coming with 's Aero Fighters 2.
The following year's Pulstar managed to up the ante on both graphics and gameplay. When the new 3-D system failed to take off, however, SNK found itself still developing games for its old 2-D engine.
This led programmers to come up with ways to increase the limits of what was initially thought possible for the system. Six years after the Neo Geo's initial launch, Nazca surprised the video game industry with Metal Slug. A take from the Contra series, Metal Slug is a run-and-gun game that featured cartoonish, hyper-active graphics and gameplay that had also launched a very successful franchise.
Since the Neo Geo was unable to produce the 3-D games that began dominating arcades in the s, SNK focused on mastering the realm of 2-D.
