Though the system enjoyed only a short life, there were some significant games released on the system such as Samurai Shodown, and King of Fighters R-1. The majority of the Neo Geo Pocket's library is forwards compatible with that of the Neo Geo Pocket Color (though games will play in monochrome), and likewise all Neo Geo Pocket games can be played on the color system (bar The Last Blade: Beyond the Destiny).
Lower than expected sales resulted in its discontinuation in 1999, and was immediately succeeded by the Neo Geo Pocket Color, a full color device allowing the system to compete more easily with the dominant Game Boy Color handheld. The Neo Geo Pocket is considered to be an unsuccessful console. It debuted in Japan in late 1998, however never saw a western release, being exclusive to Japan and smaller Asian markets such as Hong Kong. It was the company's first handheld system and is part of the Neo Geo family. The Neo Geo Pocket is a monochrome handheld video game console released by SNK.
