The Neo Geo Pocket Color (also known for its abbreviation NGPC) is the successor to the Neo Geo Pocket. This portable video game console was launched by SNK in the year 1999 in Japan, USA and Europe. But it only had an impact in Japan due to an advertising investment outside this country rather scarce. In Japan, however, he competed with the Game Boy Color and the SwanCrystal; But he never managed to manage the market volume that got the Game Boy Advance.
