## Review summary

Reviewers widely praise SamSho IV ACA NEOGEO as a faithful, well-ported arcade experience on iOS, with strong controller support and enjoyable gameplay when it loads. The touch of nostalgia and port quality are recurring positives. However, reliability issues are a major concern: multiple users report black screens, failure to load, or the game getting stuck, making the app unusable in some cases. A common request is the addition of a training/practice mode. Overall, the experience is favorable when it runs but hampered by stability problems.

### Pros

- Full Bluetooth/MFI controller support with good mapping
- Nostalgic, well-made iOS port faithful to the arcade version
- Solid gameplay and strong performance when the game runs

### Cons

- Notable stability issues: multiple reports of black screen or the app failing to load
- Missing training/practice mode as a frequent request
