Same here. Never could afford one.
I recall playing a side-scrolling arcade RPG put out by Neo-Geo sometime in the late '80s/early '90s. From what I remember there was leveling and different classes of characters ( fighter, mage, etc ). It was something like Golden Axe, but a lot more detailed. Tried to find it later but never had any luck.
Possibly Crossed Swords: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H485or8VOC8
Or Sengoku: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZqBgAQak64
Or also possibly Dungeons and Dragons: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8alVk4Zi5A0
D&D was by Capcom on the CPS2, a competitor to the Neo Geo.

Another Capcom game that fits the general description is The King of Dragons (1991, CPS1 hardware).
"As a general rule, the most important thing to remember is to give a good play value without resorting to shock tactics. Comedy in good taste is a very good method to add gaming value to any game. If the whole family can laugh together at a game with a sense of humor, it provided a more enjoyable experience without being offensive. " page. 106 (guidelines).
I was too poor for having Neo Geo at home but I played it on arcades.
