    Concentrating on adding more of these Plug'n'plays into the system as the originals are cluttering my room at the moment. When I have done a few more I will get back to more console systems for the Multi system.

    My Multi system would be able to use it, however I don't have NeoGeo and it is very expensive. When I want to play NeoGeo I therefore either use MAME or my GP2x.

    So, you were kidding I know, but the Mini system could play MVS/AES but only via GP2x with tv-out cable. No advantage!

    Pretty nice... maybe I missed this part in the video, but isn't the weight of this thing on the "bad" side?

    Anything up to about 1.2kg is fine as a portable; obviously the lighter the better, but batteries are heavy.

    Will be re-making this system in a few months time in my new casings.

    aside from the messed up link I think it's terrific. Who cares why you do a project, just do it for the fun of doing it. Same reason I region modded a 15$ genesis 2 from US to japanese mode. And the same reason I took and 15$ x-arcade shell and made it work on a snes/nes, just for the fun factor! Handheld neo geo would be...uhh.....yikes I don't even know where to begin. Maybe if the cartridge wasn't so huge that would be an okay idea. But yeah expensive neo geo games on the go = someone might rob you or damage it = not so fun. For me my hands are an average size so a gba sp is just fine. And when I ride the subway there's plenty of light so I don't even use the backlight. However playing gbc games on it are somewhat annoying because the screen size gets really small. So your....thing would be a good solution for that.

    Does it automatically.

    Going to re-house the project in due course; sleeker, better.
