SNK has announced that three special Samurai Shodown editions of the NEOGEO Mini will be released to celebrate the launch of the new PS4 / Xbox One SAMURAI SHODOWN title.
The NEOGEO Mini Samurai Shodown Limited Edition will be available in limited quantities from July, 2019 and pre-orders will begin from May 24th at selected retail stores. The retail price is $139 (tax excluded).
The NEOGEO Mini Samurai Shodown Limited Edition will have three translucent variations: Haohmaru (White), Nakoruru (Red), and Ukyo Tachibana (Blue).
Each color is limited to 20,000 units, and each unit will feature with two controllers, one collectable character card, one HDMI cable, one USB power cable, one anti-slip cushion and character stickers.
This Limited Edition ver. features 40 titles including all six Samurai Shodown titles released on the NEOGEO platform. No word on if they are fixing the audio and shoddy controllers on the original, but I’m not holding my breath or expecting a review unit after this article.
That said, the new models do at least look really cool.
