Pre-loaded games? So this means there won't be any new games or physical carts? le sigh....

I really don't know how to feel about this yet.

I will.

This is widescreen. The Neo Geo is not widescreen. Stretched images = no thanks.

Also, this thing has more buttons than it needs. Why are there shoulder buttons? Those are pretty clumsy looking shoulder buttons, to boot.

Lastly, this thing needs to play real Neo Geo AES carts. Only then will the Neo Geo be truly portable. Sure, real Neo Geo carts aren't *quite* as small as an SD card and you'd need to hire an assistant or two just to lug around your games and help hold the thing up as you play, but it'd be worth it.

More information is slowly trickling out. It looks to be an SNK licensed handheld in the vein of Hyperkin's Gen Mobile.

It looks pretty freaking awesome. I'm never gonna pay hundreds of dollars for a real Neo-Geo, so my SNK Arcade Classics Collection and this handheld will be a nice supplement!

But I could have swore someone here posted a link about SNK going under.

If SNK isn't gone, then let's see Crystalis 2 already!!!
