Today SNK took to Twitter to make a rather interesting tease. Apparently, the developer is planning to release a “next-gen” Neo Geo hardware.
We also hear that it sports a “modern design and a wonderful play feeling” and that you can link the console to the Neo Geo Mini. It will reportedly provide a “Neo Geo journey” we have never experienced.
A Next-Gen NEOGEO hardware is coming after NEOGEO Mini.
With a modern design and a wonderful play feeling and you can even link it to NEOGEO Mini, the new hardware will provide you a NEOGEO journey that you have never expeirenced.Stay tuned for more information!#SNK #NEOGEO

This is actually not the first time we hear of this. SNK has reportedly spoken about two further generations of Neo Geo hardware which won’t be direct follow-ups to the Neo Geo Mini. Apparently, the second one is going to be a more open platform.
Do keep in mind that with “next-gen” SNK likely doesn’t mean a generational leak comparable to the next Sony console or Project Scarlett. They probably simply mean a generational evolution after the Neo Geo Mini.
For now, we don’t have further information about it, but we’ll let you know as soon as some is shared.
