I think it's probably bullshit but who knows.

My friend Jordan's dad saw one on a business trip to Hong Kong.
is there a console equivalent to all these specs? dreamcast maybe?.
There has to be someone at SNK to ask.
Original Xbox.
thanks. then my question is what the hell would of snk done with such a console?. all they know is arcade style games with the exception of a few rpg experiments.

That's kind of why it's probably unlikely such a console was ever in the works.
My friend's dad said they thought about it.Nice one DracoBlade, no one fuckin thought of that one.
450 million polygons? lolol that's gotta be a typo
I do remember seeing a patent recently (idk why i was looking at patents)for an SNK home console that was submitted in 98 and published in 2000. It looked different then the mockups for the Star and would have been more towards the end of the 90's, where the Star was possibly in the mid-90's. This was also after the Hyper 64 was release. Figure 8 specifically: https://patents.google.com/patent/EP0997172A1
