Title: Neo-Geo Pocket Color
Post by: GoldenPhoenix on February 20, 2009, 05:25:45 PM
I am wondering if this system is worth buying? Are there any games that you guys would recommend? It is a system I missed out on and it looks like it was a well made handheld.

If you are buying a Neo Geo Pocket Color you are primarily buying it for Japanese games. Arguably the best/most famous game is Capcom Vs SNK Card Fighter Clash. Also Sonic the Hedgehog Pocket Adventure is really good it was made by Dimps and Sonic Team,Craig Harris of IGN gave it a 10 (http://gameboy.ign.com/articles/162/162670p1.html). Neo Turf Masters is a pretty good golf game but you can play that on Wii VC or SNK Arcade Classics Vol 1 on Wii PSP PS2.
I believe that it's backwards compatible with regular Neo Geo Pocket but that never was released in North America.

I had some interest in it back when it was new and looked like a solid competitor to the GBC, mostly thanks to Craig Harris liking it so much. I don't think the library ever reached the point where it was worth buying, but if you fancy yourself a collector, it might be worth it.
