If you love 90s arcade perfection but hate selling a kidney for a console, you’ve probably looked into the Neo Geo AES (home cart) and quickly closed your browser.

The power supply is not universal. Using the wrong voltage will instantly kill your CDZ. Always use a 5V/3A supply with center negative. Have a CDZ story or a repair tip? Drop it in the comments below! 👇
