Neo Geo X

Neo Geo X is a handheld video game console licensed by SNK Playmore and manufactured by Tommo. Information about the Neo Geo X was first reported in January 2012 and the console was later confirmed in March. It marks the first invented Neo Geo branded console in 13 years, following the Neo Geo Pocket Color in 1999 and the first produced Neo Geo in 8 years. (handheld in 11 years)

The device runs games that ran on the original Neo Geo AES/MVS hardware and comes with 20 original Neo Geo games pre-installed. Additional titles are to be made available on memory cards. The console was released December 18th 2012 as part of a bundle called the "Neo Geo X Gold" package, which includes a docking station modeled after the original Neo Geo AES console and a replica of the Neo Geo AES joystick that can be used as a controller for the handheld.

Launch
Initially, the device was wrongly rumoured by some to retail for about $800, but the price of the Gold package was revealed to be $200, far less than the original Neo Geo console.The handheld by itself, without the docking station and controller was later priced at $129.99. However, links on the official website to the standalone handheld were subsequently removed and the official FAQ now reads that the Docking Station is required in order to charge the device.
