It now looks as if that rumor was true. Blaze, who specialize in video games accessories, has signed a deal with SNK Playmore and distributor Tommo to launch the NeoGeo X. The only problem is, the price we can expect to pay renders this device dead on arrival.
The leaked specs for the NeoGeo X were slightly off. Instead of a 4.3-inch display it will only have a 3.5-inch LCD. There’s A/V output though, as well as an SD card slot. Other details about the hardware have not been confirmed, but the original leak stated there would be 2GB of on-board storage, a 2200mAh battery, and an ARM chip as the central processor.
As for the games included with the unit, they have been confirmed as:
- The Art of Fighting
- Baseball Stars Professional
- Cyber-Lip
- Fatal Fury
- Fatal Fury Special
- Football Frenzy
- King of Monsters
- Last Resort
- League Bowling
- Magical Lord
- Metal Slug
- Mutation Nation
- Nam-1975
- Samurai Shodown
- Sengoku
- Super Sidekicks
- The King of Fighters ’94
- Top Player’s Golf
- Ultimate 11
- World Heroes
Hopefully that price will be revised downwards considerably before launch and I’m also hoping for an online store offering the rest of the 158 Neo-Geo games that got released.
