    Somehow, we've managed to go ten months without a new video from vintage game hardware photographer Aaron Nanto. The drought ends today with a tribute video that will make you fall in love with the Neo Geo. Nanto caresses immaculate Neo Geo, Neo Geo CD, and even MVS arcade hardware with his HD camera, and follows with shots of boxes and gameplay for some of the system's best-known series, like Samurai Shodown and Fatal Fury. Join us after the break in wondering how he gets these old systems so clean.

    You might think gadget unboxing videos are unnecessary. A quick look after the break is all you need to realize that you are wrong. Aaron Nanto of pcenginefx.com has filmed a beautiful unboxing video notable not only for its subject (an NEC TurboExpress, the handheld version of the Turbografx-16 console) but for its beautiful cinematography. For us, this video lies somewhere between "love story" and "pornography," though we wouldn't dare suggest it's indecent to watch. We've never been so thrilled to see five seconds of Keith Courage in Alpha Zones.
