You’d also want to pick up a controller or two (also sold separately and sold out everywhere in Japan) because I can’t imagine using the built-in arcade-style controls would work out in many living room environments. Even if you can be bothered to track down a relatively uncommon Mini HDMI to HDMI cable, the video output and scaling looks terrible and blurry, with no option to render proper pixels like on the NES and SNES Classic Editions. You should forget about using the Neo Geo Mini on your TV, however. The back panel also houses a Mini HDMI port and a headphone jack. (The 2012 Neo Geo X handheld came with a terrible 16:9 display.) There’s a pleasingly substantial power button on the back as well as three USB-C ports - two for controllers, one for power. The 3.5-inch 4:3 screen isn’t going to deliver amazing viewing angles or contrast, but it looks fine head-on and, critically, it displays everything in a crisp, native resolution, which is essential for the art of these games. Otherwise, the industrial design of the Mini is cute and mostly successful.
It’s particularly disappointing because SNK got this so right two decades ago with the gorgeously clicky micro-stick on the Neo Geo Pocket.įorget about using the Neo Geo Mini on your TV That’s great if you’re controlling a character in a 3D game, sure, but it’s not what you want for any 2D game where precise input is critical, and that applies to the vast majority of the Neo Geo back catalog. It just moves smoothly in 360 degrees like you’d expect from a modern console controller. For some reason, SNK has gone with an analog stick without a gate or microswitches, meaning there’s no feedback on the direction you’re pressing. Unfortunately, the Neo Geo Mini isn’t really a great way to play any of them. It’s an amazing collection of hardcore arcade action games featuring some of the greatest pixel art and animation in the medium. Elsewhere, you’ll find side-scrolling shooters like Metal Slug 1 through 3, along with shmups like Blazing Star and Twinkle Star Sprites. Twenty-five of the 40 games are 2D fighters, including all 10 King of Fighters titles that ran on Neo Geo arcade hardware, three Samurai Shodown games, the first Art of Fighting, and four Fatal Fury games, including the eternal classic Garou: Mark of the Wolves. The selection of games is not going to be for everyone, but then neither is SNK’s history in general. The very least I can say for it is that if I were given the choice between an iPhone or a Neo Geo Mini for the express purpose of traveling back through time and shocking myself in the mid-’90s, I’m not sure I’d pick the iPhone. Here’s an all-in-one system designed like a mini arcade cabinet with 40 classic games on board, all for less than the price of a single Neo Geo cartridge. With this history, it’s worth stepping back and appreciating the Neo Geo Mini in context. It was developed with the aim of bringing high-end arcade games into the home without compromise, and it was technically far ahead of contemporaries like the SNES and Genesis. SNK’s Neo Geo was the true luxury console: it cost $650 all the way back in 1990, and games sold for between $150 to $300 each.
