Now folks over the past year the x has been discontinued and no one is suppose to stock it. Its still for sale all over the globe. However Wikipedia once stated that the Neogeo x was terminated and was dicontiuned, this info has now been removed. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neo_Geo_XI would like to think Tommo have an advantage with the dispute and maybe we may get an update. What are your thoughts? |

They never really stopped selling the NGX, and you can still get it for the normal price (or less) nowadays. Tommo probably does have an advantage over SNK, since SNK hasn't really been able to stop the NGX from being sold. I don't think it would be profitable for Tommo to continue support for NGX though, since it doesn't look like it sold too well which is pretty sad.
I'd love an update (new firmaware update, Mega Pack 2, whatever), though I'm not keeping my hopes high. I still love my NGX though.

Even if the have some kind of legal standing, SNK won't licence anymore games to Tommo. Best we can hope for would be a firmware update which I cannot see happening either.

Just been informed. Tommo still offer support and repairs for USA customers.
So this is good news.

I think that the release of the jailbreak meant that we were not going to see any more roms released in mega packs.
It could be that Tommo took a commercial decision to try and boost unit sales by providing the jailbreak in favour of trying to make further money on selling another mega pack to a limited existing audience.
It would be very interesting to see
total unit sales
unit sales post jail break.
mega pack sales
Having said all that I would love to have access to all the NG roms via an official all in one mega pack. My NGX still takes pride of place over my xbox360.
