One of the key advantages of Neo Geo cabinets is that they feature a unique system of storing games in cartridges rather than setting each game in an individual arcade board. This was then followed by release of the Neo Geo CD in 1994 and the Neo Geo CDZ in 1995.
One of the most outstanding aspects of Neo Geo arcade cabinets is that they are capable of holding and operating as many as 6 different arcade games- a competitive feature that could save operators a lot of floor space and money.ĭue to public demand, a series of home console versions of Neo Geo hardware were released starting with the Neo Geo AES which was originally intended for commercial use, but later became popular enough to warrant a release as a home console. In the early 1990s, the brand became extremely powerful owing to its incredibly powerful specs and high quality titles.
The Neo Geo family of hardware began with the Neo Geo Multi Video Systems (MVS) which was released by SNK in 1990s.
