^ I think you meant to quote me, since you're mentioning the Neo Geo. But yeah, the Neo Geo was definetly a niche thing. They were going after people with premium money, and the company pretty much said as much when they released it (going by the book I read on the history of gaming, "High Score: The Illustrated History of Electronic Gaming"). It was $600 at release, back in the early 90s. That's like $1000 today. When other consoles were $100-$200.
But even then, I named the "Neo Geo X", which is an aftermarket release of the console released just a few years back to the retro-gaming crowd; similar to what might be happening with this Dreamcast 2.
