Neo-Geo

Neo-Geo is the name of an arcade system created by Japanese video game company SNK. The system was years ahead of its time, offering huge colorful 2d graphics and high-quality sound. The arcade machines had a memory card system by which a player could save a game to return to at a later time, or remarkably, to be used to continue play on the SNK home console of the same name.

SNK continued to produce arcade systems (and limited console cartridge runs) using the exact same 1980s technology all the way through 2002, proving the longevity of its forward-thinking design.

Several home console systems were created based on the same hardware as the arcade games, as well as two handheld systems under the name Neo Geo Pocket.
