NeoGeo Pocket Color

[Vectorman0]

$70.00?

Is that a good price?

Not really, you could do much better on ebay without too much of a wait. I've sold that amount of stuff on here, complete in boxes, for not much more than that. Those 6 game and system packs are always over-priced.

That's good to know, because that's the route I was thinking of going.

Does anyone have any experience with modded frontlit NGPCs? This site has them for sale or you can send in your NGPC to have them install a frontlight:

Be careful with Mash Mods, Greg is a very cool guy BUT his old Neo Pockets are modded with an after burner kit which provides excellent lighting but his new front light kits are no where near the same quality but for some strange reason on his site he shows a picture of one with an after burner kit mod. Greg please fix that misleading picture. The front light kit he offers has 3 hot spots on the light distribution.

You can always mod your NGPC with the front light from a Gameboy SP1, I made a guide to help with the process.

I got a NGPC and I played it a few times, haven't touched it in about a year. I guess its maybe because more of my attention goes to PSP and DS. Or maybe I don't have the really good games for it. That cardfighters clash looks cool, but other than that, I don't know what else I'd seek out for it.

That's a pretty cool mod.

Wish I had soldering skills. urg

Gameliquidation.com has 'em for $70 - free shipping. And it comes with 6 games.

That's where I bought mine, pretty good place to buy.

But my friend, NGPC is worth it for Card Fighters Clash alone.

Don't forget Neo Turf Masters if you like golf at all. It's amazing how with 10% of the technology of the full Neo setup they made a handheld game that feels like its big brother, right down to the music.

Last Blade just blew me away as well. It's freaking identical to the MVS version (with the addition of all kinds of extra features and bonuses). I guess it shouldn't really be so surprising, though. I mean, aside from the graphics, why shouldn't a handheld game be just like the console or arcade version? Just too used to the dumbed down versions of their games most companies released on the Gameboy, I guess.

And as for that clicky stick, you could put that thing on every controller in existence and I'd be happy. :P

Yep. The dpad had a good run. For 20+ years it was the best option, but SNK definitely made a huge improvement in digital control with the clicky stick. It's just too bad other companies didn't seem to notice. It's also possible that it's just too expensive to do it right since other attempts at the same thing like the GP32's stick or some third party Playstation controllers I've seen don't feel as great as the Neo Pocket's stick.
