Earlier this month, SNK announced the NEOGEO Arcade Stick Pro, a fighting stick that’s also a classic console that comes with 20 SNK fighting games pre-installed. Fast-forward a week or so, and now SNK has revealed more details and features on the product, including the games it will come packing. Leading the details is that the system can also be used as a controller for NEOGEO Mini, with a size of W430mmxD214mm, which means it’s similar in size to other arcade sticks.

There’s still no word of a release date or a price point, but SNK does note it’s, at the moment, planning a worldwide release. It does note this could change in the future. Anyway, below you can peep more about the new confirmed features, and below that, see the 20 games it will come with:
- NEOGEO CD-Inspired Controller – Its curves and retro shape will make any hardcore NEOGEO fan excited as its not just for collecting, but is a properly designed and well-built controller in its own right
- Side Panel Ports and Switches – The function buttons such as start and select are set on the side so players won’t press them by mistake when you are playing. Players can switch from “Joystick Mode” to “Console Mode” on the fly! Simply connect to a TV or display via the HDMI ports. It supports not only NEOGEO mini but also PC as a controller. The two meter-long USB cable is stored in the bottom storage cabin.
Play Through 20 Carefully-Selected NEOGEO Fighting Games – As a special bonus, this fighting stick comes with 20 NEOGEO fighting games pre-installed. Connect to the NEOGEO mini or any other compatible devices and let it rip! Carry on the legacy! (Additionally, you can plug another NEOGEO Arcade Stick Pro in for some two-player fun!)
More Games and Customization – Adopting outstanding micro switch for joystick and buttons. With totally eight buttons, you can use it to play more games and when you are using it as a console, you can even customize the button layout to fit your individual play style! One interesting thing to note is that the ball-top of the stick can even be replaced easily without ever having to open up the case.
