I bought one for my SuperGrafx but I'll keep my Duo-R for homebrews.

Best of both worlds.

I wonder how they got around the legality of being able to include the CD ROM bios files?

You put it on your SD card and choose it from the menu.  I recommend watching that lengthy video that was linked to on the neogeo forum.

Well on the back of the box it says (Built-in System cards for CD-rom2, Super CD-rom2, and Arcade CD rom2). Well at least the ad of the box. Who knows what it will say on the real thing.

Built-in doesn't mean downloading the CD bios yourself. Maybe they just messed up on the ad.

This picture also claims a Built in Arcade card.

Sweet looking device nevertheless.

Got around it or just didn't care?  The odds of anyone suing are looooooong.

If so, it would explain how they got Games Express CDs to work.

They've been pretty determined to avoid using anyone else's work, aside from some Neo Geo logos, so I expected that something like this woukd require setting up rom images of the various system cards.

But the packaging makes ut sound like it's ready to play disc images rught out of the box.

Mint, but would be proper mint if AV was binned and the lot went into the card slot.  As is, it makes the Whengine look horrendous.

If what Sam says is true, it's providing the only method to record proper 60fps video. That would be worth buying for alone.

And by not messing with the cart slot, it hopefully won't add buzzing and static sounds like the Everdrives do.

I'm sorry, I misunderstood you. I meant that restoring this pulse wouldn't cause an incompatibility like you mention. I don't think it would fix it.

That's cool, I still think that this thing is a better deal than most PC Engine products new and old.

Just completed an order for one. Much easier this time after setting up text alerts from my bank, back when I had to call to authorize my neosd purchase.

It took a long time for my neosd to arrive, so I opted for 3 - 5 shipping by UPS, even though they are going to gouge me for customs charges and an outrageous "handling fee".

I'll let everyone know how it runs with the kinds of games and tests people here would be interested in, instead of the random games people have tested so far.  Like trying Sapphire instead of Strider, bicompatible CD/SCD and SCD/ACD games, CD system warnings, Tennokoe Bank and Memory Base/Save Kun, Games Express, sound roms, Human HuCards, Altered Beast CD, fmv streaming, load time comparisons with my okay IFU combo and lightning fast refurbed Duo, RGB picture and sound comparisons, etc.

Terraonion should have sent Black Tiger one to review for free.
