It is NOT NeoGeo but NeoGeoCD, there is a huge difference.
The Dreamcast doesn't have enought memory for NeoGeo either (and the CPU is only a little bit faster than the gp32 one).
The difference is that the NeoGeoCD doesn't have to store the roms in memory, but can stream the games from the CD, that is why much less memory is needed.
then again, I am no expert, that that is what I got from reading the Dreamcast emulation message boards.
These are the specs of the NeoGeoCD:
CPU: 16bit 68000chip running at 12Mhz with a 4Mhz Z80 chip helping out. It can handle 4,096 colors on screen at once with three simultaneous playfields.
Sound: 13-channel Yamaha sound chip in stereo.
Memory: 7Mb of DRAM; 512K of VRAM; and 64K of SRAM.
Resolution: 320 x 224
Color Palette: 65,536
Max colors on screen: 4096
Max sprites on screen: 380
Internal RAM: 56 Mbits
CD: Single-speed drive with the ability to play audio CDs.
