NeoGeo X - A new NeoGeo Portable ( Dec 6 Release )


I'd consider this if it were the entire Neo-Geo catalog, but 20 games...
I remember, NeoGeo games were costing up to (translated) ~200€ back then so these 20 Games that are included sound like a good deal... :D/>
Except their probably just on some random emulator that's probably not even optimized for the neo geo x
 
Instant fail for Blaze. It's getting really crap reviews for video, audio and even game quality - some games are even missing intros etc.

How and why do they keep releasing shit like this?

Can you link to any of the reviews that point the above out.
 
I should have stated that my comment was based on chit-chat over on the Jamma+ forum, which may or may not be accurate.

However here is an Amazon review - http://www.amazon.com/review/R3R4TOZ1OO8J9V/ref=cm_cr_pr_viewpnt#R3R4TOZ1OO8J9V make of it what you will, as all reviews are subjective anyway. A more positive review also mentions problems, including lack of high scores, no save features, poor HDMI output and screen-tearing, cheap feel etc.  - http://www.amazon.com/review/R3LWZ0D5FHTEV5/ref=cm_cr_pr_viewpnt#R3LWZ0D5FHTEV5

It sounds like they got a lot right, but messed up in other areas.
 
Could be hacked but for 200 ... It's like putting " apple " on one of those micro stick pcs and charging the normal ( apple )price of admission .
 
^^^^^^it sure does.i wonder if it costs much to licence the games.blaze dont seem to do a great job if they are paying good money for them

Some good reviews there.

I'm really disappointed, as you say it has some good areas and some bad.  Maybe a firmware update will fix some of the issues.

Having said that though I'm more than happy with my Pandora for Neo-Geo games.  I think the only thing I would like from the Neo-Geo x is the inbuilt joystick and the plug in controller.
 
Blaze are intrinsically shite.
I wonder how they manage to get all these gaming licenses and how much it costs.


Imagine we could include these games officially with the Pandora... it does a way better job emulating.
Does anyone have one of these to look through the manual?  It may say "games licensed from".

Or even on the boot screen.
 
Anyone of you got this thing yet? I wonder it it will be open for other software and titles. Worst is the lack of digital control which is a must for retro gaming IMO...
