Who had/has one?

Still have a neo geo pocket colour from back in the day, had a wicked beat em up and golf game, the names escape me...took in on a trip back to my homeland Oz, it was wicked had the longest battery life known to man, pure memories.

Am living in the US at the mo seen a neo console on ebay for about $300 with 8 games or so...heard nothing but praise for this machine but never got to try one out myself.

Currently on the Retro Duo (nes+snes all in one) and the original f-zero...

Yeah the console cost about the same as the games, something ludicrous like $300 each, even more in the UK...part of the reason why I was thinking of getting one now, looks like a bargain on ebay.

This game was sick, I had a mate who finished one of the versions in the arcade, only put about $4, got a huge round of applause from people watching.
