it's still stupid and pointless, overpriced and offers nothing new. not to mention licensed products are crap.

If this thing actually sold a decent amount Apple would sue them. But I do not anticipate it having much of an impact.

If they want to succeed, they really need to put in a slot to play actual Neo Geo games. Obviously a handheld playing the AES cartridges is just gonna be an awkward, oversized mess. But they could design it to play Neo Geo CD and/or Neo-Geo Pocket Color games, in addition to the built-in games. I know those of you who are more technically inclined can probably mod it using the SD Card slot and ROMs, but for those of us that aren't and prefer the actual games, it would be fantastic.

And I just bought Analogue Interactive's CMVS slim!

LOL - I would love to see somebody mod a Neo Geo Portable to play AES / MVS carts.. man that would be a sight. But yeah.. I gotta disagree with you.. you don't want this thing playing CD games either, it would be just as huge and stupid. NGP though isn't a horrible idea, if it could play those carts as well as Neo Geo AES roms.

I sold me AES and Garou to raise the money for mine, had to make the sacrifice for the better choice in the longrun
