Oh come on, NeoGeo is a bad example. It's a system where you actually can pick an emulator because the additional latency inherent in emulation is noticeable in the twitchy fighting games. There's always going to be a frame of video lag and at least a little audio latency, and the NeoGeo just happens to have lots of games that make that obvious.
