Neo Geo Battle Coliseum background

I'm playing a bit of NGBC at the moment (decent game btw, although the load times on PS2 suck), and one of the backgrounds in the game depicts a museum with the vehicles from Last Resort and Armored Scrum Object II on display. I can't find a screenshot, but it's pretty nifty. I thought it was a nice homage to some shmups gone by. It also has some vehicle from Top Hunter in the scene.

I was hoping someone would find a piccie of that background. That's well smart.

Heh interesting, that must be the BG layer only, as in game there are various people standing around as well.

Is there a higher-res image than that anywhere? It would make a very cool desktop wallpaper.

Well, that's also the night version of the background, which doesn't have any people on the sideline IIRC.

Man that's amazing, they even got the Top Hunter mech in there.
At first I was surprised the almighty Metal Slug Super Vehicle wasn't included, then I realized it had to be a hall of vehicles for lesser-known Neo games.

Good stuff though, thanks for the shot.

Yeah, plus I don't think the Slug would really fit in -- it just wouldn't look right all shiny and whatnot.

The Metal Slug is in the game though. Marco is one of the playable characters and uses it in some of his attacks.
