neo geo pocket color

[Anonymous No.5058942]

was thinking of getting one of these worth it?

[Anonymous No.5059014]

it's pretty nice, has some pretty good game on it. i love samurai showdown 2, the king of fighters and the capcom vs snk.

>that button placement

Why? This is how you do it. Even better though is the left button being higher than right one.

They're close enough you can press both at once with just the tip of your thumb

It is too low and makes me think it might be one of many reasons the Neo Geo Pocket failed.

SNK just completely collapsed for many reasons of which the buttons on the NGPC being "too low" was definitely near the bottom of the list. It actually feels great.

it looks kind of shitty
thx

it feels pretty damn good to play, if you can find one for pretty cheap get it for the metal slug games on it if anything

Yes but you'll have to wait about a year to get a retrohq flash cart for it. Get on the mailing list today.

Absolutely, just repaired mine last week and there are fantastic games for it, Sonic Pocket Adventure is a lot of fun and I really like Biomotor Unitron
In fact I don't think there's a single bad game for the system, plus the clicky stick is ideal for fighters like KoF R2

>tfw was at the front of the queue but couldn't buy it at the time
Sucks man

I'm only getting one to investigate why the fuck you could connect your NeoGeo to your Dreamcast.

>if you can find one for pretty cheap
I've found one with 4 games unboxed
Biomotor, Samurai Shodown 2, King of Fighters and Metal Slug

what would you consider a fair price?

Anyone, please tell me what you think on price

To link up King of Fighters '99 Dream Match and King of Fighters R2, or course!

Shit did they ever release that white NGPC in the west? Looks amazing

Sonic Pocket Adventure is essential if you liked the Genesis games. Metal Slug is good too.

Neo geo, dreamcast, colecovision, turbografx I reckon it's all the same bunch of contrarians who don't even care about games, they only enjoy the feeling of being elite.

NGPC has a thicker shell than the GBA and it has recesses on the back for gripping, your thumbs align fairly well with the button/stick placement

I miss when consoles and handhelds connect with each other.

[Anonymous No.5061751]

how expensive is a flash cart for this?

[Anonymous No.5061773]

>>5058942
No. It was not worth thinking of getting one

Do you REALLY like arcade games? Do you want arcade-style games on a portable? Are you willing to spend a little extra to get your system customized to add backlighting to it?

If you answered "YES" to all of those questions, then yes it's worth buying (assuming you can get it for a reasonably low price).

This, and besides that style of button layout was standard for decades with little complaint. Furthermore any complaint one could render over the buttons was powerlesd compared to the love for that clicky joystick.

[Anonymous No.5064384]

Only problem with the buttons is that there's only 2 which makes it hell for fighting games since they're press duration sensitive. You get light attacks by tapping the button but you'll still get heavy attacks most the time.

Iirc it's actually about how long you hold the press. I remember being able to do combos decently in cvs.
