A cartridge-based arcade system board and fourth-generation home video game console, the Neo Geo was released by Japanese game manufacturer SNK Corporation on April 26, 1990, and is referred to as NEO•GEO or NEOGEO. It was the first in SNK's Neo Geo line of consoles. Even though its CPU and Z80 coprocessor are 16/32-bit, the Neo Geo was promoted as 24-bit; its graphics data bus is 24-bit, and its CPU is a 16/32-bit 68000.
The Neo Geo began life as a coin-operated arcade machine called the MVS (Multi Video System). Six cartridges can be housed in a single cabinet with the MVS, which was an important economic factor for operators with limited floor space, as well as a long-term cost savings. The ROM cartridge and cabinet artwork of a game with self-contained cartridges can be swapped out for a different game in a game cabinet. AES, the name of the game for the home console, was also released (Advanced Entertainment System). As a rental console for video game stores in Japan (named the Neo Geo Rental System), its expensive price prevented SNK from releasing it for home use — this was later rectified owing to overwhelming demand and it became a luxury product. With a price tag of US$649.99 (equivalent to $1,235 in 2020), it was the most expensive home video game system ever released. Playing arcade games at home was made possible thanks to a system that was identical to the MVS in terms of raw specs and compatibility. In December 2012, the Neo Geo X handheld and home system was introduced, bringing new life to the Neo Geo and the brand as a whole.
Neo Geo's strength was unmatched when it was debuted, and it wasn't until the CP System II in 1993 that it was surpassed by any other video game console or arcade system, including Capcom's CPS. As a result of its inexpensive price, multiple cartridge slots, and compact design, the Neo Geo MVS was a big hit in the 1990s. In addition to Fatal Fury, Samurai Shodown, World Heroes, The King of Fighters, Metal Slug, and Art of Fighting, this platform has seen the introduction of several other well-received video game franchises. Due to the high cost of the hardware and software, the AES initially only found a small audience in Japan. Since then, however, it has garnered a devoted following and is now valued as a collectible. Despite the fact that hardware manufacture for the Neo Geo system was halted in 1997, software development continued until 2004, making Neo Geo the longest-supported arcade system of all time. The Neo Geo CD console and Hyper Neo Geo 64 arcade succeeded the AES and MVS, respectively. 980,000 units of the Neo Geo and the Neo Geo CD were sold globally as of March 1997. IGN ranked the Neo Geo 19th in its list of the top video game consoles of all time in 2009.
