Here's another handheld that did do well in Japan but tanked here in the States

NeoGeo Pocket Template



NeoGeo Pocket Color Template



I have game for this system, but they came in the repackaged set that came out a few years ago that had just the cartridges and system, no boxes. So if anyone has boxes to scan, I can make you a cover for it.

  • ...and that's the bottom line
Maybe we could go the custom cover route. After all the Neo Geo Pocket Color had just ~30 games.

There is actually like 40 :P I guess around 60 or 70 if your counting Japanese exclusives as well.

But man I love my Neo Geo Pocket Color. I remember when I bought it for like 25 bucks of a friend along with 5 games. As well as PC versions of Vice City and 007 Nightfire. It was the best deal of my life EVER

Every now and then I play with Samurai Shodown and King of Fighters R2. I would sure as hell love to get some boxes, but their really hard to find.

Part of the problem is the US releases of the Neo Geo Pocket were all in cardboard boxes, while the Japanese releases had plastic cases.  So most US ones ended in the trash.  After it flopped in the US Neo Geo sold off the US Pocket to another company and they bundled the Pocket with 6 games in just the little plastic protective dat tape like covers.

I guess i have a few to scan here too.  Got the US metal slug and a couple of the KOF I think.  Someone from the Neo Geo forums was having a Ebay auction a few weeks back of all their Pocket stuff -- maybe like 50 games or so.  Don't know how much sold.  Bids kinda got outta my range pretty quick.  But my range is really small at the moment :)

i made a template for this too to fit the gba cases a few months back.

I never posted it once i found out there were cases already (i didn't know that it was only for the japanese games though).
i really like Lumberjack's template, its better than what i had planned.  :)

the only games i own are:
Sonic Pocket Adventures (no label)
Bust a Move


i don't have the cases but i could scan the label of bust a move if anyone needs it.


good job LJ

Your welcome!

I did the same thing so I'm looking for anyone who has scans of Neo Turf Masters, Fatal Fury, PacMan and Samurai Showdown.

Sweet! And the best thing about NG Pocket cartridges it that they don't take much to mod the DS cases to fit them.
