More On: Neo Geo X Gold
The worlds Neo Geo  hold a special place in my heart as an older gamer.  Back in the early 1990s, when the Super Nintendo and Genesis were the hottest systems out there, the Neo Geo launched as a far more powerful system, yet sported a price tag that was almost three times as much as the Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis.  Now, 20 years after the launch of that system, it's being re-released as a package called the Neo Geo X Gold Limited Edition that will come with a handheld system pre-loaded with twenty favorites from the Neo Geo that sports a price tag of $199.99, also coming with the original style arcade stick for the true arcade feel!
