You know, it's not generally considered a "Rumor" if you just make it up yourself ;-P

I don't do twitter and HATE the changes to FB, so my social networking skills are zero...but this was the reply back to the message I sent to NGX FB.

GOT MY NEW NEO-GEO X
I really like the hand held unit. It feels good and the picture looks great even in widescreen. I think the docking station looks cool but feels cheap and the hdmi out sucks ass. I like the controllers but feel cheap. I thought they did a pretty good job on the packaging.
All in all, I am happy with this system. I am just happy to see them actually release this considering not alot of people are going to buy this when there are better hand held game systems out there.
I would like to see SNK re-relase the NEO-GEO GOLD SYSTEM as it was back in the day but with better video hook ups and the uni-bios installed would be nice. I also re-release all games. Even if it cost $700.00 I would still buy it.
In the mean time my Analogue Walnut CMVS slim will have to do.

Just like all the other "rumors" and hate this thing received when it was first announced. All the way from this is a hoax to whatever hateration it's getting today. Get over it. You don't like it, move on. Go back to the War Room, Unrelated, Chat or whatever other bridge where the trolls live.

Correction, it's not generally considered a "Rumor" just because you make a fake twitter account to tweet it.
You have to edit Wikipedia first :-P

Well, I have some somewhat good news for those of us wanting to play the X on a SDTV. I got one of these HDMI to s-video converters in today, and after playing a little Metal Slug and KOF, I'm pleased to say that it works pretty well!
It doesn't look as good as an actual Neo in s-video by a mile, but it's a huge improvement over the composite video. My main issue is that it's a bit washed out, like the brightness and contrast settings are set too high, but I'll take that trade over being blurry, dark, and red. Also, the unit doesn't have odd flickering like some VGA to svideo scan converters I've used before, but there is some overscan that is off the screen (slightly more than a real Neo, but not enough to matter.) Super happy up in here.

Any input lag? Input lag is super bad on my flat screen.

Just got mine today. Best Buy shipped it in a box and not a trash bag. Not one scratch or ding on the box.
Just got mine from Best Buy today and if the complaining helped, it didn't help for long
Mine came in one of those plasticy shipping bags, just sort of wrapped around it and taped. The box was trashed, though not destroyed. I haven't taken everything out yet, but the contents seem to have survived.

I'm using phone charger and how long will it take to fully charge the NGX?

Finally got back home today and decided to try out HDMI --> component --> Sony PVM CRT
The picture was much brighter, vivid and crisper... however got a weird double, h-shift thing going on. I actually had to turn the color and contrast down.
I got this same effect when I tried an iPhone component video out cable on this display. Never was able to fix it though. Oh well...

Stealthlurker: I believe what you are seeing is your 480i monitor trying to interpret a 480p signal. My TV did the same thing, except I only got a double black and white image.
By the way, what kind of camera settings are you using for those screen shots? I've got a decent camera, but I'm too much of a noob photographer to take a decent picture. On the pics I took, the composite video actually looks better than the s-video, and it really, really doesn't in person.
