From the same guys who brought you Gunlord, comes NEO XYX, a shooter for the Neo Geo that…yes, this will be a Neo Geo game. On a cartridge and everything.
Because it’ll only be made in a small run, and because it’s being made for a dead console that uses expensive cartridges, don’t be too alarmed when I tell you how much it costs.
(It’s pre-ordering for €399, which is around $520).
Adding to the novelty factor is the game’s orientation; it’s a proper vertical-scrolling shooter without the option to letterbox the game’s display so that it fits on your widescreen TV.
Meaning that if you’re going to play it properly, you need to turn your TV/monitor up and sit it on its side (though you can rotate the controls if that’s absolutely impossible).
