>let's make a handheld with specs ten years out of date and call it neo geo even though it's more akin to a game boy in terms of games
>>12809560>specs ten years out of dateCompared to what? The monochrome version was a mistake, but the color version released just 5 months later is superior to the GBC in every way
>>12809576It was also under 100 dollarsI knew a lot of people who only had hand heldsIt was an important market, everything that tried to be bleeding edge floppedBut this thread is /vr/'s fault If OP posted something like "let's talk about the neogeo pocket"Crickets
>>12809560The only stupid decision was including two buttons for a handheld with fightin games as a bulk of its library.
>>12809576>the color version released just 5 months later is superior to the GBC in every wayBased on what? It was far far weaker. Color one is just the B&W one with color.
>>12809760* sorry GBA which is what it was competing against, GBC was already old by the time the B&W NGP hit.
>>12809763>GBC was already old by the time the B&W NGP hitThey released the same month of the same year you retard
>>12809768Ah, well it was old when NGPC hit anyway.Why would they release a B&W Game Boy clone the month the GBC hit anyway?
>>12809597PSP was bleeding edge and sold massively. It was downright futuristic when it came out.
All the emulators for this thing still have glitches in several games, why don't trannies put more effort into emulating this and the dreamcast link instead of making a 500th game boy emulator which supports the sewing machine accessory
>>12809576>but the color version released just 5 months laterSmells like panic to me. Reminds me of the 1x speed CD-rom drive in the Neo Geo CD. SNK seems to fuck themselves by trying to save a buck where they shouldn't.
>>12809834theres a mister core now
>>12809905The real problem wasn't just that it was 1x speed, it had no cache so the drive thrashed harder than nearly anything and was even effectively slower than other single speed drives of the time.
>>12809560I have a NGPC and a WSC and I love them so much. Of course, I also love my GBC.
>>12809560the NGP Colour was better.and AFAIK it did better than the WonderSwan?>>12809771IIRC even the GB Color outsold it.
>>12810013>AFAIK it did better than the WonderSwan?Not exactly, WonderSwan sold slightly better, and it was only marketed in Japan while NGP got released internationally. Though WonderSwan was sold for a couple years longer.>IIRC even the GB Color outsold it.Not a chance, not /vr/ sold about 80 million units, while the entire Game Boy line until GBA sold 118 million. So unless overwhelmingly more GBC units were sold than DMGs or Pockets, then it’s not even close. Granted, PSP was on the market for significantly longer.

>>12809597This is just a fact, the gameboy did more for Nintendo than the NES and SNES combined financially. It nearly single handedly made them a billion dollar giant.>>12809771The PSP was a success but compared to the cheaper competitor, the Nintendo DS, it was nothing. The success of the PSP also didn't continue as the PSPgo and Vita both were failures. This speaks nothing of the actual quality of the hardware as I still think the PSP is one of the best handhelds ever made.
>>12809956>it had no cache so the drive thrashed Is it just one tard posting this or is there a youtube causing multiple tards to post it?
>>12810850look at the fucking board schematic retardit was a cost cutting measure and they probably didn't want too good of a drive in there anyway seeing as how they were competing with their own cartridges lol
>>12809560>Let's make a very based system, for only the most discerning of gentlemen
>>12809949>playing handheld games on a consoleway to miss the point
>>12809769>ah well let me move the goalposts
>>12811941He has a point though; they should’ve realized their monochrome handheld of downgraded Neo Geo games would have no chance of success once Nintendo released a color handheld. I pity the 5 or so nips who bought a monochrome NGP before the color was announced. But that’s a minor mistake compared to the larger stupidity that led to SNK’s bankruptcy.
>>12810874What country are you from where a youtube is called a "board schematic"?
>>12809560I mean, they saw how the other Game Boy competitors went out, trying so hard to be "more" than the Game Boy, only to cost more and have batteries die fast, so they went with Nintendo's own approach, trying to beat them at their own game, and honestly I think it worked. It also got a Sonic title better than all of the Game Gear ones, as good as they were then.
>>12809560I wonder if somebody is crazy enough to port pokemon to the NGPC.
>>12812013No YouTuber has ever talked about this, to my knowledge. It's a known problem first exposed on Usenet. I know kids like you never heard of that but it's like forums but better.
>>12812081A black and white Sonic game?
>>12812462No, there is one on the venerable Tiger Game.com though.
>>12809834maybe your useless conservacuck ass should try learning to code and diy instead of expecting other people with actual skill to do it for you
>>12812107Nintendo won't allow it. unless you mean ROMhacks.
