Consolized NGP? - Morden - 05-18-2012 Recently, Racketboy has published an interview with Dion Dakis, in which he states that SNK was planning a consolized version of the Neo Geo Pocket. He also mentions that there are some pictures of a prototype out there. This is the first time I've heard about this, so I was wondering if anyone in here knows what he's talking about. The idea of a consolized NGP is so ridiculous it shouldn't be true, but who knows? RE: Consolized NGP? - -SD- - 05-18-2012 This is what he's on about: Although I though it was generally agreed that this was development hardware, and not a home unit prototype. You can definitely see outputs on the rear for composite video and audio, S-Video, and what appear to be BNC connectors for R,G,B, and Sync. The screen is just above the controller port. Although there's no connection for linking it to a development PC for debugging, which you'd sort of expect if it was for development RE: Consolized NGP? - Flavor - 05-18-2012 NeoTurfMasta has one of those. He put pics on his site before. http://neogeofanclub.com/?p=246 RE: Consolized NGP? - Morden - 05-18-2012 Oh, we talked about this one in the NGP -> TV thread, but it's clearly something meant to aid the developer, not as a console. Aside from the outputs, it has an integrated LCD screen, which doesn't make any sense in a console that's supposed to be hooked up to a TV. I thought he meant something else. When he mentioned it, I got an image of some tiny unit in my head, instead of this. A consolized NGP would probably be the size of a PC Engine. But if that's the unit he meant, then there is no consolized NGP that wasn't for dev use.
