SNK Neo-Geo X

[speedlolita]

Why would ANYONE buy that?

[CMcK]

I have the Analogue Interactive CMVS with a few carts including a multicart and it is awesome. You can hook it up to your CRT via scart or to your HDTV via component. MVS is the only way to go for Neo Geo games.

No, There's a tiny Mouse inside the handheld that eats the fullsize AES cartidges and refits them to fit in the SD card slot.

Anyone want to give me a proper answer?

Yeah, i'd say its probably emulation. The bigger games are harder more complex to emulate accurately/take up more memory, so i'm guessing thats why they arent included

[speedlolita]

It's certainly emulation.

The memory cards will be nothing more than an SD card with a ROM on it. Rubbish.

Apparently it's running FinalBurn Alpha I read today..

[speedlolita]

Hacked to run Third Strike maybe.. That'd be neat.

My appologies, I was incorrect.

It's a Gerbil not a Mouse.

Re: SNK Neo-Geo X

I just don't get how they value this as the price they are selling it. With things coming to light now even more so.

Slap the neo geo logo on a bar of chocolate, and the fans would go into hysteria for it.

Hmmm, tastes like garou...

Because the money you save on AES carts means that the machine pays for itself. I'd rather have that than an MVS system with an exposed board too, as I won't have the room for a cab anytime soon.

[speedlolita]

Well, I guess. MVS board, JROK encoder and the wiring would be just short of $250 though.

Not that you need the JROK.

But obviously it's a premium product.

Ok, a member on neogeo forums has, managed to get Andro Dunos running on the NGX (not one of the included games) apparently the NGX has an internal SD card where teh roms are held, uploading the Andros Dunos rom to the SD card and renaming the file as metalslug1 enabled the NGX to recognise and run the file. Won't be long now until it's hacked wide open.
