My friend got one of these. He and I sat around for better part of a day just fiddling with it. On a note though I'm going to be downer and say I will never buy one. I already own an AES and this thing is inferior in pretty much every way. He's happy though, so I guess that all that counts. Still this thing just feels cheap. It doesn't run games near as well as some other emulators out there. The controllers are kinda flimsy. I'm sorry for being so negative but, just no. :( |

I'm glad to hear the good and the bad, thanks ffxik |

I would like to say that my issues are more with the TV connection rather than the handheld. I also forgot to mention the latency concerning the wireless controllers. There seems to be quite a bit of lag between button press and action on screen. Which kinda killed me since a lot of the games included are twitch based games. |

I think I (and a lot of other people) wouldn't be so hard on the system/emulation if they weren't charging £175 for something that emulates with the accuracy of the £35 Mega Drive handhelds on the same page - http://www.funstock.co.uk/retro-gaming Heck, for £45 you can get a new Mega Drive with 20 built in games and two wireless controllers and ports that accept original controllers and it also runs original carts too! The Neo Geo is just an old console that generally used common parts and hadsome of the simplest controller wiring ever - the real expense was in the cost of the carts, the thing is that today we live in an age where anyone can buy an 8GB SD card for less than £5. There's just no reason for the Neo Geo X to cost as much as it does. Just for comparison (if anyone feels I'm being unfair comparing it to those MD handhelds) the Dingoo and Cannoo both cost less than £100 shipped. |
