This is a memorial update on behalf of the amazing little Neo Geo Pocket Color. It was the best gaming handheld, not just at the time but even now. We sometimes get it out of its drawer just to have a look and a feel.

Neo Geo Pocket Colour
It had a glorious d-pad, loads of great games, REALLY NICE plastic game boxes featuring poorly translated text and typos, a very alright original Sonic (2D), a lovely and very cute Japlish menu screen system and...

...SNK Vs Capcom Card Fighters Clash.


SNK VS. CAPCOM CARD FIGHTERS DS

Now there's a new version of it for the DS. Card Fighters Clash wasn't the sort of game we liked, but we still played it. It just had that 'sort of thing' about it.


SNK VS. CAPCOM CARD FIGHTERS DS

We didn't really understand how it worked either, but we still played it.


SNK VS. CAPCOM CARD FIGHTERS DS

Now there's this DS version. It will probably be awesome and 'go large'.

These are some screenshots of it we've just been sent thanks to our unbeatable PR contacts and world-renowned news-breaking reputation.

There. It's actually called SNK VS. CAPCOM CARD FIGHTERS DS, and that's their use of capital letters not ours.

What i want to know is - when you win does the screen flash in crazy stripes?

And if you lose does a massive snot bubble repeatedly inflat out of your nose?

Sonic Pocket Adventure is still in my Neo Geo Pocket Colour. It's the perfect Sonic game because:
- It's 2D
- They just took Sonic 2 and moved some of the platforms around a bit
- You don't fall to your death a thousand times a level
- There's no pink hedgehogs or giant cats

Word verification: kosskt. Is that Russian?

I've been waiting a good while for this. But previews of the Japanese version say no WFC support. This makes me a Sad Panda.

The NGPC joypad/mini joystick thing. Wasn't that like the joypad ever?

Certain 3rd party controller makers tried to replicate it for several joypad designs, and never got it right.

I'd kill for a cross between one of those pads and an old saturn controller. That would be the greatest controller in the world, oh yes.

Picked up a NGPC with Sonic and Cardfighter's SNK just before christmas. Sonic is great, but it's Cardfighter's I can't put down: 45 hours on the clock and many more to go before I get bored of it.

Just wish the screen was a decent backlit affair.
