Neo Geo Pocket
Encyclopedia : N : NE : NEO : Neo Geo Pocket
- For the system with the same name featuring color vision, see Neo-Geo Pocket Color.
The system was only released within the Japanese and Hong Kong market. Even though it had a short life, there were some significant games released on the system such as Samurai Shodown, and King of Fighters R-1.
The Neo Geo Pocket has the unique distinction of being partially forwards compatible, meaning it can play many of the newer color games. There are, however, notable exceptions such as Sonic the Hedgehog Pocket Adventure or SNK vs. Capcom: Match Of The Millennium. The newer Neo Geo Pocket Color is fully backwards compatible, so it plays all Neo Geo Pocket cartridges.
