Any love for Neo Geo Pocket?

<< < (5/8) > >>

Supposedly Analogue's "Pocket" portable device is supposed to launch this year. It will cover Neo Geo Pocket, Lynx, Game Gear, and GB/GBA/GBC. There will also be a dock so you can play those on your TV. It's not original hardware, but I think it will be a pretty good deal for all that it does.

Didnt like the SP...

Yup, same here, but to two of them:


Also backlit (with bivert) 2x Gameboy Pockets:






And finally, I do own Woozle's previous product, the GBA Consolizer:


Playing the GBA Consolizer on my big screen, with SNES controller is so awesome. The Castlevanias, the Metroids, the updated Final Fantasy's...  add the GBC library, and you've got a pretty amazing console for big screens.







It's a great time for the gaming hobby. Lots of these cool products to breathe life back into our old original systems.

I'm really looking forward to the NGPC Consolizer. There are a handful of games I'd like to replay, but I don't want to see it on a smaller backlit LCD, especially with that ugly 3D Printed bezel...that would just annoy me while playing.
Right now I play a few games here and there using conventional lamp lighting, but once the Consolizer is out I get to really enjoy the games on a bigger screen.
Doesn't matter if you don't have nostagia for this system, the games are high quality, and anyone who enjoys good games could appreciate the system. The fighting games are superb, with great art and controls (there are modern games now trying to recreate this esthetic) . SNK vs. Capcom: Card Fighter’s Clash is addictive, and pretty fun for the collectionist card battler player. There are a few RPG's, tactical RPG's, and a smattering of sport, shmup, arcade style games that play really well on this system.

Anyway, this might be lost on this crowd, but I for one am buying the consolizer day-1. YMMV

Titchgamer:
Totally agree on the games Opt, A very underrated library imo.

Hm.  Those modded Gameboys do look pretty sexy.  Think I'm going to order one of those kits, install it, and then keep never playing my Gameboy.

Woozle put up another video with improved audio. I've been chatting with him in PM's and he mentioned that his previous video was just grabbing the audio from the headphone jack, which didn't sound as great.  This video he actually soldered in the audio ADC circuit and the audio quality increased 10 fold!
