Nice to see the exhibition. Inspires a bit of confidence because, erm, at least they're not destitute.

I received this two hours ago. Took eight days in my case (no pp dispute).

Kinda regret cancelling now. 🤦🏻‍♂️

I wonder how hard it was to clear the rights for Zero Wing with whoever owns Toaplan now.
If the Neo Geo becomes a current system again, I can imagine a few other 68000+Z80 system ports appearing via various folks if you can sell them.
Need a bit of playtesting, mind as you don’t want a £90 game crashing.

I still have the anniversary edition plus extras on Amazon pre order, so happy to leave that. Would be nice to have the full set but in reality I'm not sure I have the space

I've got loads to say on the way Plaion have handled things and their general pathetic communication style but for now I'm just so relieved we're actually getting the proper Neo Geo box and what we'd seen previously was just the sleeve! Gonna need a bigger shelf!

Also the game inserts are definitely reversible but not with a different region as you can see in the pic, looks like it will be same region but without all the modern legal info which is great news. I'll definitely be buying the Japanese games.

If you get a video blocked, try here:

I retranslated it and still can't fathom out how voltages or the choice of chip packaging is linked to glitches - you'd have much bigger problems than some odd colours if it was. Sounds like more what happens when you're up against it and have no time for debugging minor emulation issues and a second proto before production.
Rather amazed they'd actually admit all that as it'll be marketing suicide. Perhaps it's a misunderstanding and there'll be a revision before release.

Couldn't they have just done this in an FPGA rather than all the 'better than you' marketing spiel of ASICs? Would still have sold well with SNK stamped on it.

edit: interesting it's the flash in the carts that caused all the delay anyway. Suggests they were telling the truth and the console was on track with production, they just would have no games to sell with it.
