: The other "recent" 2d system I can think of (recent being 1997 ish) was the super hyper neogeo 64 - im not kidding, thats what they called it.

Nope. The NG64 was designed as a 3D system and all the games for it (FF:WA, SS etc.) were polygonal. Like most 3D systems id *could* have done 2D but that's not why SNK made it. Sadly it wasn't up to standards and the games never really became popular so it died.

And yes, coin-op stands for coin-operated. :)

-P-

: There was a Fighting model, a driving model and another one that I can't remember. I never saw any of the three to be honest but I'm pretty sure the fighting model was 2d only.
