Shaq Fu has a reputation that tends to arrive before the game does. It's often brought up as a punchline, a cautionary tale, or a strange footnote from an era when licensed games could be wildly unpredictable.

If Aero Fighters 1 laid the foundation and Aero Fighters 2 perfected the formula, then Aero Fighters 3 (Neo Geo) is where the series truly went all-in.

Bigger stages, crazier bosses, stranger pilots — Aero Fighters 3 is the series at its most unrestrained and unforgettable.
When the Neo Geo launched in 1990, it delivered a lineup of explosive arcade titles—but one game stood out as the system's flagship sports experience: Baseball Stars Professional.
