Sounds pretty interesting to me, hopefully it won't cost too much.

That looks quite nice :D And some of the best games of ole' were from the Neo Geo (and they're hard as hell to emulate...) so it's nice to see them revived like this! Let's just hope the price is reasonable.

This is really the hottest shit i've seen in ages now.

I'm very curious about the price, too. I think it's something between 200-600 Euros. This is for weird collectors and rich assholes lice this Leica stuff. Oh, I love this.  chill

Judging by its iPhone 4 inspired design I think it's going to be sold to more than just collector or "rich assholes" :P .
My bet is that it will be 150 euros tops. Can't cost more than a 3DS.

TinyCartridge pointed out the pics aren't actually consistent; take a look at the Select button in the first pic, it becomes a Menu button in the next pic. Odd. Perhaps it's an elaborate hoax.

Oh shit. Nathan, you're right. I didn't think about it. Yes, it's a hoax of course. It's just an iPhone. Arrrggghhh...

@wiimancj: Oh no. This is something different than a 3DS, trust me. They can ask 1'000 Euros for that and would sell some thousand of this. This is really another target group than a 3DS.  grin

Damn it if it's a hoax cry

And yeah, the 3DS and the Neo-Geo have completely different target groups. The 3DS has pretty much the same target group as the NDS (non-gamers, mostly, and a small offer for people with heavy gaming experience. All the Nintendogz and Imagine: Baby bunny hairdresser iceskating pony teacherz shows that). The Neo-Geo, on the other hand, has a vast amount of beat'm ups and the likes. If you're the type that'll enjoy Imagine: fashion designing dolphin babysitterz, you most likely won't enjoy Metal Slug or King of Fighters.
