The price of the Neo X just doubled.
Question is, now, are the systems out in the wild now going to be worth anything down the road?
Only if they make the NGX a playable character in a Smash Bros. game. Otherwise, no.
I definitely think it leaves somewhat of a black mark on SNKP's rep. They surely regret the fact that their name is on it. I'm curious how many of these were actually sold? The sales figures were obviously pretty miserable, not to mention all the returns from those that were not easily fooled.
Man, I'm going to sleep good tonight. Hopefully one day we can all forget this even happened. Carry on SNKP, carry on.
apparently Amazon didn't get the memo, or they did and don't give a shit.
....give it a few more days for Tommo to get their act together.
This is a case where Tommo will need to abide by SNKP's request, otherwise they will face legal action.
It's odd that it's only the separate controller that needs to be pulled from shelves though. I wonder why they're allowing the remaining systems to be sold.

No worries. They covered all of it.
I actually kind of hope that Tommo remains true to form on this and DOES drag their feet about removing stock from sale. Let SNKP sue the crap out of them and shut 'em down for good!
It is only the stand-alone stick where it is called out that it must be removed from retail.
