neo geo pocket game system review.

the reason why i bought the neo geo pocket color game system is because it is by far better to see, and play the games with, than the watara game system, wich is of very poor quality.

one of the best portable systems I ever played

I had basically almost all the classic portable systems that were once popular, like game gear, nomad, and gameboy. I decided to finally get a neo geo, I was amazed by the graphics and gameplay on this little device. The neo geo is way better than the...

A Finished Masterpiece of Design and Quality

I just purchased this system (current date: July '08) and have been using it for over a month. I believe that this portable system is perfect. The time that has passed between now and its active production only sharpen my feeling that the NeoGeo Pocket...

The little console that couldn't sell anymore! What a SHAME

Click for the in-depth review! I know, this came out and tried to battle against the Nintendo Advance. Well I suppose the rest is history and it wasn't pretty for the Neo Geo pocket, I suppose you could say. But, I believe it was for all the wrong...

Questions from an interested buyer

The Neogeo Pocket Color in Ocean Blue looks like a great hand-held system. I always thought about getting one, but never got around to do it. Does this Neogeo Pocket Color console in Ocean Blue really comes with six games? If so, which ones are...

One of the best handhelds EVER, especially for Fighters!

Since I'm reviewing the system as a whole, I'll try not to go into detail about individual games too much, but rather give you reasons to buy this system and which games you should look into. I got my NGPC a little late in the game (about 3 years...

Product Specifications

Enjoy portable gaming with more magnificent and vivid images. NEOGEO Pocket Color is equipped with SNK's custom-made reflecting TFT-format LCD. It's bigger and easier to see, and displays up to 4,096 colors with a simultaneous display of 146 colors! Continuous play about 40 hours long is made possible with two AA batteries and a lithium battery.Enjoy cartridges for the NEOGEO Pocket in simulated color. Software for the color model can also be used for the NEOGEO Pocket (images will be displayed in black and white). The popular Revolving Joystick is a must for maneuverability in action games and the like. It also comes with "Calendar", "International Clock", "Alarm Function" and "Horoscope" functions, which can be used with the main unit only. A "Pocket Menu" is built-in too! Because the battery back-up function and clock function are built into the main unit, enjoy simulation games, which use the passage of time. Accessories can be used for both the monochrome model and the NEOGEO Pocket Color.
