Okay, so I just got this and I am wondering if anyone knows the origin of these. I never saw one here in the US when NGPC was "alive," so I assume it is from Europe or Asia. I'd really like any information at all, as this certainly looks to be an item from SNK.

Hi

Im from the UK and used to work in a game shop when the Neo Pocket was launched and I can confirm that this is the demo pod issued to retail.

I still have the plastic Neo Geo Pocket backboard as shown in your picture as proof :)

Hope that helps.

Thank you very much! Do you happen to remember if it came with a "demo console" from SNK?

It came with the standard NGPC as the B/W NGP never got a real proper release in the UK, even though 5 B/W games did make it onto the shelves here.

I also have a huge Neo Geo Pocket poster too (about 2meters long) with a massive picture of a Neo Pocket and some games shown below. Its ace and I have it in mint condition, along with the other 600 hundred (not a mis type , 600) game posters. You name it, I've probably got it, from the 98-04 era.

I was going to bid on that, decided not too as there A) wasn't much to it really mostly standard metal but with the SNK moulded in the plastic and B) I have no real room for it.

Only 1p plus postage wasn't it? not bad I suppose, not likely of seeing many but I guess its not overly collectable unless some die-hard NGP fans were looking for it..

Olly.
