Not too many have sampled the delights of the Neo Geo Pocket. I mean at the time it faced awfully stiff competition from the GameBoy Advance. But those with a soft spot for all things SNK knew, to paraphrase the Borg, "Resistance is futile" and soon snapped up a system. With a bit more Ganbare and a few more Pokekuns, Genki remains it could have carved a tidy niche. Granted not quite the sales of a Nintendo handheld, but when you are talking such a large market, 5% ain't bad.
Anyway to the chase: Ganbare Neo Pokekun is a fresh title in which you trigger certain events to keep Neo Pokekun happy - if you are successful he rewards you with a mini game. These include Shinobi, Star Wars, King of Fighters and Galaxian tributes amongst many others. Look out for a Megaman look a like and a guy with a party popper up his backside calling to visit. One of the best titles on the system and import friendly to boot.
Maybe it was just the styling of the system which didn't agree with commuters on the Yamanote line...? SNK: we salute you!
