Too bad the hardware is still assy garbage.
I’ve got great news a developer friend of mine hacked the Neo Geo Mini ROM. It now plays CPS and SNES games and he is hacking it to play more game consoles. Here are a couple pictures and videos will be coming soon.
It is great news... Until you remember that anyone with half a brain wouldn't buy this trash.
I dispute that. I've been clinically tested to possess just under 53% of a brain, and I bought one.
I am surprised that it hasn't been hacked prior to this. I guess people really didn't care about this system at all.
If someone starts selling a replacement for the stick and buttons to microswitched ones this could be an interesting development.
Does it fix the video out?
You're not allowed to have a dissenting opinion online. It's funny how people who bought this seemed to keep hope for it a while after it was released, but now we're at the point where this thing is universally hated. Especially on this site the naysayers always gradually come to dominate the conversation. Now you're not allowed to think of it as anything but absolute garbage. The Mini's stock is lower than Neo Geo X's at this point.I dispute that. I've been clinically tested to possess just under 53% of a brain, and I bought one.
I'll agree that it has no worth as an alternative to owning an actual Neo, but as a novelty item, it's fantastic. It sits on my work desk where another nerd might have some action figure, and when I want to take a sudden 5 minute Metal Slug break, this thing is awesome. I'm glad I ignored my better judgement and caved.
The only thing that needs to happen is for SNK to release a compatible actual Neo CD pad, making fighters legit playable, and this thing would be absolute gold. It's funny the overblown hate it's gotten, almost universally from people who have spent much more on much stupider things.

I don't know why anyone would defend this thing even if it's on your desk at work. So you took a breather for some metal slug? could've done that with practically anything.
I could have done it with any number of things, but this is the one thing that looks like a tiny Neo cab. I don't know that I would even call my post defending it. But I would call the blasting of it overblown. Even if it did have a halfway acceptable joystick for fighters and internal battery, it would still be a poor substitute for a Neo system. It's a novelty item. That's all.I don't know why anyone would defend this thing even if it's on your desk at work.

lol it was $100. Big whoop. Yeah, let me wring my hands over $100. Oh no, there goes 2 hours on a single Saturday working that I otherwise might have used reading a comic book. There's not a single person in this thread, including you -- and including me -- who has not wasted much more than $100 on something much stupider.He knows. He made a stupid purchase and now he's inventing reasons to legitimize it
