It happens to be a common method in other areas: think about limited runs of shoes (jordan, Pharrell Williams...) or also with limited versions games (Zelda, Final Fantasy etc)
I'm the opposite opinion about PR with AES games. It would get a lot of short term attention to produce a limited number of games for a 30 year old system for a "breath taking" selling price.Dev-Team is a small group of passionate homebrewers targeting only an extremely small, niche, and wealthy market.
SNK is a medium sized developer of high quality games for modern consoles, with shareholders to answer to and a target audience of millions and millions of gamers worldwide.
If they sold a new AES cart for $1500, it would be absolute PR disaster across the board. Gaming news reporters, casual fans, and hardcore Neo fans alike. Sure, you'll get some with more money than sense to buy it, but they're only gonna buy it so they can hoard and flip it.
Also, no online, no cross play, no patches, no DLC, etc. Not gonna fly.
