Classy looking device. I like it.

Won't buy it though.

That is rad.

Despite me wanting this to be real, The Menu and Select button are inconsistent with the screens, widescreen, and its pretty much the same shape and form factor of an iPhone 4... Keep the dream alive though!

Looks like a Photoshopped iPhone.

SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!

Forget about the 3DS and Vita! This is the future of handheld gaming!

Well, probably not.

I NEED THIS IN MY LIFE !!!

I actually own & still enjoy playing my neo geo pocket color.

Wait what?

Disappointing on two levels. One, not an actual NGPC with Card Fighters Clash, Match of the Millennium, Last Blade, or Biomotor Unitron. Two, those are all like the oldest Neo-Geo games out there. Couldn't they get any of the titles released later in the system's lifetime? Sigh.

@Alex: oh. whoops. my bad. So this is good news! Yay!

Me want!

What? I want this, I want it bad.

Might be worth a pretty penny. The logo must be gold-plated xd

In other news, Gizmondo is coming back, better than ever.

I love my Neo Geo Pocket, but the screen was absolutely horrible, to the point where it was near impossible to play.

If this a decent price, I'll totally get one.

Why in the world is the L1 mirrored with the R2 and vice-versa?

Day 1 purchase

Day 2 "put on a shelf next to my wonderswan"

I would buy that.

I don't think that's an analog nub, pretty sure it's microswitch based if it's anything like the old Neo-Geo stuff.

The close-up pictures makes it look kind of cheaply made, I hope that isn't representative of the final product.

I want it!

Y'know I don't mind a handheld used for playing old games, it's basically what I've been using my 3DS for these last couple of months.

Pretty much this! Can't help but think this is just a photo shop of a iphone4 The button placement on this thing is all wrong.

looks like a cheap iPhone knockoff.

Bingo. Re-purposed iPhone.

Yess..

Back when I worked at Toys R Us I found a box that had 2 blue camo neo geo pocket color units with a couple of games. This was way after they were off shelves so they weren't even in the system anymore so my manager junk sku'ed them at 50 bucks. In retrospect kinda wish I picked one up just for the novelty factor :/

Oh man, an NGP!

i'm so-so on the launch lineup, but i really really dig the form factor that snk has laid out here. looks like a solid portable gaming device.

There are a lot of chinese portables that run mame, snes9x and a number of other emulators. This portable will live or die depending on the support SNK gives it.

I know its too early to know that, but the list of games doesn't necessarily fill me with hope.

It looks like an iPhone 4 and a Vita had a baby...actually really nice design aesthetic!

Hooray! But no Neo-Geo Cup? :(

This seems like a dumb idea. There's nothing about that device that seem to set it apart from newer phones or the handhelds that are already established besides the number of built in games.

GUYS IT HAS AN SD SLOT

...I want this. I have zero understanding as to why.

I shouldn't... but... I... I want one.

How the fuck am I going to press 3 buttons at the same time with the buttons laid out in an + pattern?

@MrCHUP0N said:

My thoughts exactly.

Looks purdy.

Looks fake, what's with the select button changing to menu in different pictures?

I've got one of these. It's called a Caanoo.

How many times does it have to be said? I've heard Jeff echo it a thousand times. King of Fighters 98', if you have to have one KOF, is the one you need. Now I know 98UM hit XBL and PSN, but can I get my classic port?

@Det1:

That's what the shoulder buttons are for. There are eight buttons and Neo-Geo games only use four, also Neo-Geo cabs had two different layouts, one being similar to this pads layout but rotated and the four straight. A lot of Neo-Geo games don't even require multiple button presses above two anyway.

It's right? In Neo Geo Pogket form, am I rite?

This isn't worth it if it's only those games. If you can get new ones, then I would buy it, just to have something no one at school would know what it was.

Metal Slug is the only Neo-Geo IP that I care anything about. However, this is pretty awesome.

If it's more than $99 I'm not going to get it.

The only thing I don't understand is--why does this thing have analog controls?

I will buy this. Oh yes, I certainly will. I still have my original Neo Geo Pocket Color. Love that system to death.

I was just playing the XBLA version of Fatal Fury Special when this story appeared.
