The Accessory Outlet, sister business to Venom, has today official UK rights to distribute the highly-anticipated NEOGEO Mini, the advanced portable entertainment system that’s part mini-arcade and part classic console.
Designed and produced by SNK the legendary home of NEOGEO entertainment, The Accessory Outlet will serve as official UK distributor of the international NEOGEO Mini, expected to begin shipping in October 2018 and previously unavailable in the UK even via import and will be the first to stock it.
Much more than a mere plug-and-play classic console, the NEOGEO Mini comes in the form of a table-top arcade, powered via USB and complete with 3.5inch display, arcade-style control stick, stereo speakers and a full complement of action buttons, allowing gamers to relive dozens of classic games with no need for a monitor or display! When playing at home or with friends, the HDMI output allows for simple connection to the TV, while gamers can even plug in up to two NEOGEO Mini PAD controllers (Sold Separately) and relive classic two-player action in HD from the comfort of their own living room!
Known for incredible graphics and peerless arcade thrills, NEOGEO is the premier name in arcade entertainment, and NEOGEO Mini includes no less than 40 timeless classics providing endless entertainment.
“NEOGEO is a name which transcends mere retro entertainment and true gamers will attest to the unrivalled quality offered by the 40 classic games built-in to the system. NEOGEO was the system that everyone wanted and finally, gamers have the opportunity to own the very best from NEOGEO for themselves in a highly advanced, collectible arcade system which goes way beyond the classic plug-and-play consoles typically available,” said Tom Hodge, Director of Sales for The Accessory Outlet. “We’re delighted to be distributing the UK version of the system as well as the various accessories, and we believe that NEOGEO will prove a must-have system upon release this Autumn, allowing us to grow market share in the hardware sector.”
