@@onetwo6039didn’t 8bitdo say that for their neogeo controller, it took them like 3 years to figure it out? The statement isn’t wrong. THEY ARE hard to make. It’s just that this company doesn’t wanna do the hard work. 8BitDo did them but it took them a while.
The neo geo pocket color had so much potential. I miss it. I'd love a neo geo pocket color themed emulator handheld. We recently got a game gear themed one. Only a matter of time.
I think this is real. Like the concept for the official version. I've seen company use fanart for placeholders as such. So them using an ambernic style handheld as inspiration makes total sense. They get green lit, remove extra buttons and right analog, and add premium neogeo buttons and tadaa. A sexy neogeo handheld. That is buy and immediately regret😂 😂😂
I unfortunately dont see this doing well especially if they will be competing against those Handheld Emulation systems. Because you get EVERY SINGLE NeoGeo games unlike this which only gets a few and then some. I mean you get CPS1-3 so every capcom arcade and fighting games, Every Mame arcade games, N64, Snes, nes, genesis etc. I mean heck you get NeoGeo pocket and Dreamcast. And if you dont have the games. You can always get the rom and add it to the SD card. If SNK wants this to do well. They should make more than just a retro system. SNK should make this so it will have brand new exclusive games for this. Because again, for the same price of those Handheld Emulation systems. You get more compared to this SNK handheld unfortunately.
I don’t mind another one of these cheap consoles from SNK. I bought their original mini and the arcade pro stick. What does bother me, is the repetitive line up of games. It’s always the same old, same old. I get it. Neogeo is so easy to emulate. But you can’t keep selling all these fancy toys, if the content is the same. They don’t even bother to license other Neogeo games they don’t own like Waku Waku 7 or Breakers. Heck, they don’t even wanna try to emulate their pocket color games. Or include something spicier like their Atomiswave lineup. It’s the saaaaaame games. And you can only depend on KOF 98 and Metal Slug for so long. I’ll probably buy this when it’s discounted on Amazon for 30 bucks or something. But im kinda tired of snk and único always making these toys and not spicing up the game line up.
Maybe they're adding in the extra stick/buttons because they know people prefer more, than less. As you said, you can customize to your liking. And let's be honest, people are gonna hack this thing and add more emulators to it.
It could similar Playstation Portable for Neo-Geo handheld horizonal has the 2 analog sticks. PSP square, triangle, circle, and x, and also A,B,C, and D buttons are different situations.
They always gave us 40 but never 80. C'mon SNK we need a plug and play whether consoles or handhelds that includes more games. Also how bout instead of just only NeoGeo games, include some of your older and newer SNK games that are not NeoGeo, games like Aero Fighter 1, Ikari Warriors, and Psycho Soldiers or games like Metal Slug 6, Samurai Shodown VI, The King of Fighters XI, KOF NeoWave, and NeoGeo Battle Coliseum. SNK is like Sega, while Sega can't let go of the Sega Genesis library, SNK can't let go of the NeoGeo library, at this point it's getting old. We need more variety than just those same library.
Fully agree this needs micro switches, lose the 2nd analogue stick and slap on some artwork or theming to make it look like a neo geo. As it is I think its a complete flop. Thanks for the video as alwy
They need to make a true neo geo aes mini, I would actually buy that. I have 0 interest in a low budget handheld. It has all of the extra buttons because this device is made to run emulators that need those buttons. This handheld is not made specifically for neo geo games or those buttons wouldn't be there.
@@AndrewJoachim88 What is this? Are you talking about the Unico? All Unico products they made for the Neogeo/SNK are garbage. If not can you give more detail?
@@khamla616 no, the best is always made by the community for the community. I replied to your comment but it was deleted by TH-cam. Can't attach the link to help you easily find it. But Google search for MGS NEOGEO AES mini, and you will find Robert Dunnart who makes mini consoles for people. He does great for collectors. Cheers.
The word that comes to my mind seeing this is GENERIC af. I love SNK but I don't need another console to emulate games tbh. Second stick makes no sense because 1gb ram ain't give you a lot of options to run games. If this is real and actually looks like a neo geo pocket probably I'll buy one just for collection but right now I'm far from being excited about this "new" console
always support licensed Neo Geo Product but game selection is too small, no video out and Bluetooth supported. my wish list is replicated AES mini and analogue AES system
They should put the discontinued snk mobile games on this. I would buy it if a offline version of kof all stars gets released. That game was a lot of fun. Never paid anything always felt like winning ;)
8 gigabyte storage seems a little overkill for just the games intended to be on the handheld? To me it seems that snk just wants to jump on the portable console market, but 1 question here: WHY no Neo Geo Pocket 2 with new games?! The way it seems right now this is an easy Cash grab. Too bad
Naw, this one is uninteresting and unimpressed. The one created by the passionate NEOGEO community is way much better. Would really recommend this one from the community: th-cam.com/video/0EBYynVS9Y0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=UAUQAZMveYDYxTWW. His craft plays all titles and other consoles as well, with the arcade joystick to feel the good ol’ times. There’s only one game that won’t run: KOF 2001 bootleg but otherwise, an enjoyable and treasured piece. Due to popular demand, the guy builds it for others willing to pay for his time and parts. I bought one, been playing since September 2024 and enjoying it to this present day.
This thing is so wrong in so many ways! It could be amazing if they just tried a bit harder with those controls, colors and more licensed games to download.
Bring back the neo geo x gold. But make it better than it was. This is basic and AliExpress has wayy better handhelds for the price. This is a cash grab
this portable makes no sense or just a low effort cash grab if its real. Its not even themed as a neogeo device then why not get any other china emulator machine that can play more games? This mock literally looks like another ambernic device.
Okay, this might rock. A NEO GEO pocket hold will rock, kinda reminds me of a PSP. You know what? This would rock if it wrre to released internationally
No thanks Neogeo got no third party games a console that doesn’t have third party games sucks should go put their games on PlayStation Xbox Nintendo PC Steam it’s better that way
It needs to have a clicky joystick
Clicky sticks are hard to make. 🥸

Same here man. I was hoping for a neo geo pocket mini with the micro switches. But either way I am interested in it. We will see how this turns out
What news. I just ordered a neogeo pocket color and 5 games a few days ago.

not only that every phone can basically do this with a controller phone adapter.
I really wish they would just make a master collection. Every neogeo game ever on a super premium handheld. Id pay over a grand for that
SNK doesn't own all of the neogeo games

🙋🏻♀️ We need KOF 94 - 96 - 2003 - XI - XII - XIII - XIV - XV - MAXIMUM IMPACT 1 - 2 - R-A the NEO GEO POCKET COLOR games and many more 💫
YES!! Maximum impacts were great!!

They included extra analogs for modding potential?
i hope they make neogeo pocket style that plays pocket and aes

It doesn't matter if it doesn't have online play
No Turfmasters or Baseball Stars 2 sadly
I second the clicky dpad
9:06 what if they a preparing to create new exclusive games for there too? a dual stick shooter would work, like ikari warriors...
Fully agree this needs micro switches, lose the 2nd analogue stick and slap on some artwork or theming to make it look like a neo geo. As it is I think its a complete flop. Thanks for the video as alwy

What are u talking about dude 🤔 I got the Neo Geo X, which has extra button too 😂🤣
Unico can’t do it someone else needs too, they botch every neo geo project
I have the NEOGEO AES mini. AES, not the mini that was released by SNK.

no hurry, wait & see.
don't forget that "HYPE" is a bad word & never preorder ;)
cheers
I prefer neo geo mini2 more with bigger rotate screen (Re:just like Taito mini)
Hoping they can put in Superside Kicks 2,3, or 4 And more games than the 40
They must have the extra buttons for people who mod this thing with other games.
Sadly original of Fatal Fury, Samurai Shodown, Art of Fighting 2, and Samurai Shodown 3, and what's next upcoming for NeoGeonow?
So was the arcade stick neo geo 2 and was the bar top neo geo 3? Or what’s the deal with all that
Maybe Blaze can get the license so they can put their games on the Evercade.
Where's Ninja Masters?
The word that comes to my mind seeing this is GENERIC af. I love SNK but I don't need another console to emulate games tbh.

So How much Neo-Geo handheld cost?
Mate...read. It's written in the first picture the guy shows.
“An old arcade you really can play on the go”?
I would like a new FPGA based AES/MVS system. That is compatible with both AES and MVS cartridges.
I think we all wait for that device from analog or snk
10000000000000% Instabuy!!!
This thing is so wrong in so many ways! It could be amazing if they just tried a bit harder with those controls, colors and more licensed games to download.
Metal Slug Tactics is now, eh, Nabil?
Instead of the ng pocket they should have made a portable aes.
th-cam.com/video/0EBYynVS9Y0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=UAUQAZMveYDYxTWW
I am all SNK classic worn out
I don't understand why we ain't getting the next gen NAOMI games, they should own them & todays roasters can run them
I have a superior lineup of games for my AES already. I’m good.
Bring back the neo geo x gold. But make it better than it was. This is basic and AliExpress has wayy better handhelds for the price. This is a cash grab
I'd rather buy a powkiddy or anbernic for that price.
Just buy the Neo geo pocket!
Serioulsy, you want to play 3 Count Bout ?
Looks like a average anbernic for $50.
Don't do that.... Don't give me hope.
I like it, but it looks like every other generic Chinese handheld.
No OLED screen and no VRR support (so the games can run smooth on their proper speed) in 2024 = what a pathetic joke.
I seriously don't get why all NeoGeo's handheld have this awkward buttons placement... I don't want my usual punch and kick buttons to be swapped.
Unnecessary since everything can run neogeo
this portable makes no sense or just a low effort cash grab if its real. Its not even themed as a neogeo device then why not get any other china emulator machine that can play more games? This mock literally looks like another ambernic device.
I’d buy one if the design isn’t so generic and boring. They should have copied the design of the neo geo pocket…
Okay, this might rock. A NEO GEO pocket hold will rock, kinda reminds me of a PSP. You know what? This would rock if it wrre to released internationally
yeah the extra buttons and analog sticks just gross this thing up.
Total nonsense .. it's just a cheap emulator handheld ... Just with snk licences .
This thing is trash.
1) wrong button layout
2) no clicking dpad
3) wrong color schemes
this is worst than the old Neo Geo X handheld
At least the neogeo x was actually a great concept just badly executed.
Agreed!
Nope..lazy just lazy!
No metalslug?
Has almost every Metal Slug
No thanks Neogeo got no third party games a console that doesn’t have third party games sucks should go put their games on PlayStation Xbox Nintendo PC Steam it’s better that way
You don't know they have no 3rd party devs. Do you work for SNK and are telling us or just pulling shit out of your ass?
