Not many people know about Japanese console [Neo Geo]
.It was pretty powerful and brought arcade machine quality to home gaming.
Pulse-pounding and jaw-dropping action scrollers were a calling card of Japanese gaming device. Comparatively to more common [Super Nintendo]
and [MegaDrive]
it was advertised as console with 24-bit GPU bus, which allows very big 2D-sprites, supporting up to 4096 colors. By release time [31 Jan 1990] it was super impressive.
