Neo X shipping
What is going on with this? Some have theirs already, some have shipped and some have no word on shipping.
It's scheduled for release tomorrow. Only Walmart, Amazon and BestSku have shipped and only to some preorders. Best Buy and other retailers will likely ship starting tomorrow as people are reporting that charges are appearing on their credit cards and their order status is moving to preparing for shipment. It's not a regular stock item and it's on-line only (except for Gamestop and they will not be stocking it in stores other than to fulfill preorders), so it will take a day or two to get it back out the door once retailers receive them at their distribution facilities.Originally Posted by LimitedEditionMuseum

Mine is showing up tomorrow via ups. I got mine from Target.com
Ours was available at eb today.
Checked out some early impression videos/previews on YouTube.
Gotta say, I'm impressed with the replica USB joystick (which I assume will function fine on a PC as a human interface device) and the "dock". While it's mostly just a plastic shell with some USB pass-throughs it's practically the same size as a real Neo-Geo home console.
Wildly impractical that dock is, but charming as fuck.
"And the book says: 'We may be through with the past, but the past ain't through with us.'"
USB stick works for PC and PS3. Joystick registers as POV hat in Windows.
That's a sweet deal for people who got that set then.
The device itself looks bigger and higher end than most Dingoo-priced China clones too.
Here's hoping that the emulation is up to snuff for the Neo-Geo fanatics!
Anybody here get theirs and give it a go yet?
"And the book says: 'We may be through with the past, but the past ain't through with us.'"
I dont think anyone has one yet since it dont come out till Feb. 2, 2013. Source Gamestop that I called to see if they had it in yet.
The Engadget piece makes it look way cooler than I expected. I didn't realize it was so big, either. If the limited edition ever hits sub-$100 prices I'd consider picking it up, but I'm not a big enough Neo head to justify the purchase at this point.

I'm confused then, am I misreading the quotes above yours?
"And the book says: 'We may be through with the past, but the past ain't through with us.'"
Mine arrived today so gamestop can eat their wrong info
Fuck yeah! Gonna buy this definitely!
Mine is in our house still in box. Can't play with it until Christmas
In Canada you can only get it through eb games. Apparently I was the only person in our city to preorder it. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or just means that I'm a sucker.
I'm gonna stop at eb today and see if they sell the joysticks separately.
If the store is selling the console they should be, can you see though if theyre selling Ninja Masters separately too, though?
Ah shoot, I havent found any place online for how much the controller is separate if it is sold separately, I think it is though, it should be.

Because it's a private seller via amazon being greedy.
I look at ebay pricing and wow...it is gone above $200 mark.

I can't speak for Canada, but here in the US, no major retailers are carrying either the system, sticks or game at retail. Each GS only received exactly what was preordered and they have no plans to carry them as a regular stock item. You can, however, still order sticks from BestSku, Target, Toys R Us and a few on-line retailers.
Ok, thank you guys.Ah, shoot, I fell for it, I should have remembered to see if the SUper Saver SHipping was available right there. It is a private seller. Sorry for my mistake.
Again check target.com
It lists it for $50
There seem to be many complaints popping up on Neo-Geo.com about the quality of the video output from the dock. It does seem to vary by television though. The handheld and stick are getting good reviews so far, although there is no save or high score function once you shut off the game and the games are censored with no blood other than SS2 if you use the old AES trick to activate it. I think this is something to grab once it hits $100 or less.
