Collectors item or not, it\'s fantastic
As a european enthusiast of handheld consoles I had to look hard on the internet to even find out about its existence. But when I gave it a try - it truly was a bargain - I found it to be so off the mainstream dictated by Nintendo, Sega, Sony and others - which are of couse are also great - that all i can say is: it\'s amazing. It\'s an alternative decision, but with it, you get a bunch of alternative titles... games you won\'t likely to come across on a GBA. And while the actual console is a rarity and became more of a collector\'s item, the games are witty, make good use of the hardware, and are fun to play. A must have.

Excellent GamyBoy alternative
Now becoming a collectors item (due to it\'s rarity). The Neo Geo Pocket never really stood a chance against the roaring success of the GameBoy, wich is a shame really, because it turns out to be a really cracking little device. It features a range of good games, and a neat little arcade style D-pad. Other nice touches include a calander, alarm and a (slightly gimmicky) horoscope reading function.
If you don\'t want to follow the crowd and stand in line for a GameBoy, or want something just a little bit different at a bargain price, then I seriously suggest giving this a go.
