Neo Geo Pocket Color

So who else digs the NGPC around here? I got one back in the day as a birthday gift with Sonic Pocket Adventure when I was eight. I thought it was super awesome, and the controls for Sonic were so good. I remember talking to other kids about how much cooler it was than the Gameboy Color because it could do my horoscope and stuff haha. My older brother had a Dreamcast, and I saw the commercials that said they could be linked together which sounded amazing to me. It was a huge let down when I wanted to look for new games like a month later only to find that SNK had recalled all of their stock. Bummer.

So for a long time it sat around for years until I realized I should actually start collecting some games for it. So far I have:

Sonic Pocket Adventure
Metal Slug 2nd Mission
Mark of the Millenium SNK vs Capcom
KoF R2
Fatal Fury 1st Contact
And lastly Dark Arms Beast Buster

It's such a good handheld game system, it's too bad it was only as powerful as it was when the GBA came out so soon and SNK went under by then anyway. I wonder if a bit more power and a lit screen could have helped it perform better, but I still really enjoy playing it now.
