Makes you wonder why these companies fail so spectacularly hard when it comes to these devices.

Such a strange design choice. I find it bizarre that companies go all the way through brain storming, r&d, demo and then retail with crap like this like there was no one around to say “this is a bit crap”.
Either keep it all the way real and make an Uber expensive bar top with all the right hardware and sell a few hundred thousand niche units or make a mini style cheapie and sell a few units more because there is but limited appeal. Instead we get this guff. For the second time.
“I told you a long time ago you little monkey not to fck me” - me to SNK. A long time ago when they were outside of my pocket money bracket. And it still stands today. Cheeky little monkeys!

All they had to do was make a mini AES with full size sticks. It would have sold in thousands. Let the hackers mess with it, and it would have been perfect. The ONLY thing they had to do was get the sticks right. Same feel as 1990 with expensive Seimitsu parts, and it’d have been a dream (match). The old guard alone would have broke it even.Kept you waiting, huh?

I have one of those - and while I like it, I wouldn't want to play Neo Geo games on such a tiny screen.
At least all this talk of 'tabletops' has made me feel like getting all my machines out of storage.

That's what I expected, seeing that mini consoles are all the rage at the moment.
But instead, people have been left feeling...
