At one time, SNK made what was considered the Roll Royce of video game consoles. As a kid, I remember thinking that the Neo-Geo was the most amazing game hardware I had ever seen. And now earlier today, the company announced that it making a new game machine.
SNK posted the following tweet.
2021年、SNKから新たなゲーム機が登場します！
ゲームファンの熱意とコンソールゲームへのニーズに応える新製品にご期待ください！#SNK pic.twitter.com/DDdQZbs0Bk— SNK JAPAN (@SNKPofficial_jp) December 15, 2020
It reads, “In 2021, a new game console from SNK will debut! Please look forward to a new product that will meet the needs of console games and the passion of game fans!”
Oddly, the image that accompanies the tweet includes the English-language text, “Who is the best player?” and the wifi signal. Uh, ok!
Recently, it was reported that Saudi Arabian investors were going to acquire a majority stake in the game maker. Previously, back in 2015, a Chinese joint venture had acquired SNK, and during this period, a NeoGeo Mini console and a massive NeoGeo stick were released.
