No surprise here though right? I knew it was a cash grab form the start but OH NO the fanboys could not stand when I talked down about the precious NEO GEO X even if it is crap:

Jesus, does that mean the system only got ONE game?

Bingo. My friend bought one. The aes stick is crap.
I never understood who this was designed for. If you're actually interested in playing neo geo games, nothing offered with this thing sounds appealing. In fact, many people bought one with the intention of hacking it or keeping it sealed on a shelf.
The thing that I didn't understand, was the aspect ratio of the screen. widescreen and Neo-Geo aren't a match made in heaven. Should have had a 4:3 aspect ratio screen, like that GCW Zero thing. Who wants to play with their games stretched out ? Who wants to play with black bars on the sides ? Nobody really wants to do it eiher way, but with a widescreen aspect ratio, you have to choose between two crappy options.
I bet itll worth something to someone unopened.
I really wanted this for months but then I didnt get it, glad I didnt ultimately. But I wish similar better made console clones will be made in the future.
So does this mean that the time to buy one is now or wait until later to find it?

This was one of my complaints as well.
If you want a more affordable Neo Geo experience, a consolized MVS is the way to go, ideally. I realize even THAT may be cost-prohibitive for a lot of people, but I think MAME would provide a better experience than the NGX. Just my 2 mesetas.
From what I understand the limited edition gold bundle has gone out of production. The stand alone handheld is still coming.
What about the titles on the Wii Virtual Console or any Neo games that are on PSN/XBLA? I know there's the SNK Compilation on Wii and PS2 though I've heard the PS2 version has issues. There's also the various anthologies and compilations on PS2 like Fatal Fury, World Heroes, and Art of Fighting among others.
As far as the OP goes, I wanted a NeoGeo X strictly for the novelty of it but never bit because of the price tag. If it were half that price I might have been more inclined to pursue getting one.

Wishful thinking at best.
The end was near when it was discovered that it was no more than a cheap chinese media player running an outdated version of Final Burn Alpha.
Since you can run the exact same (current version) emulator on a PSP or any number of devices the appeal of this system became nil.
If you buy one now, you are literally paying for the name.
