NEO GEO Development

With all that is happening, how hard would it be do become a developer for Neo Geo games? I mean, since SNK is now over (very ssad), how would someone go about aquiring what is needed to start developing games for the MVS system? How much would something like this be and who would he/she contact to get this started? The reason I ask is I am in the final two years of my Game Development degree and am thinking of ways to "aquire" the code to create such games on this fantastic platform? Any help would be awesome!

erm..

I remember reading info a while back about NEO devkits..

very.. very hard to get hold of.. near impossible unless you are an employee.. very cumbersome and slow to use.. machine specific assembler all the way i imagine.

maybe that have updated .. but i doubt it.

However for (£17 uk) you can develop on the Sega Dreamcast using GNU tools, its very simple and by far the easiest way to setup a dev environment..

(I sometimes call my DC a NGCD2 anyway) heh

laters.

Thanks Kernow for lettting me know. How do you get a DC dev kit? How much is that in USD?
