I think I can recall some sort of N64 memory card thing on the Blitz cabs too... They had them at Walmart stores along with one of the popular racing games on N64 (Rush, Crus'n USA/World/Exotica... one of those)
My best friend and I wished they'd done it with Gauntlet too, but oh well.  Managed to find this old thread which shows a photo of the side of the machine and the N64 card reader that they'd have attached.  Apparently it was Blitz '99 and not "NFL Blitz" that utilized them.

The idea with neo geo was you have an AES at home, you can take your memory card to the arcade and continue in your metal slug run or vice versa

GEG is too young to have porn, send it to bounce, he's clearly interested   It could be the non-adult Bishojo game, as the wikipedia info states that there are adult "versions".

But... I mean... there's only one way to find out. lol
