The 12 cartoon character screens you can see by putting the Neo Geo Pocket Color game SNK vs. Capcom: The Match of the Millennium in a black and white Neo Geo Pocket! Or emulating it in the emulator NeoPop, anyway. ^ _^
Session: https://youtu.be/Dhuadp6paeE
The NeoPop emulator lets you force the emulated game to play as if it was either in the color or the black and white system; it can also emulate having the system language set to either English or Japanese in the system BIOS.
The game here is a dump from my JP version of the cartridge--I don't know that software-wise it's actually any different from the NA version, though! Anyhow, with NeoPop set to English, it just gives a sorta generic two-screen message about how you should use a Color system--but when set to Japanese, there's loads of dialog lines for the Capcom and SNK characters in the illustration! The lettering in the illustrations stays in English, though.
When you power on in black and white, the game shows you one of the cartoon images; the next time you power on, it shows you the next one, and cycles through them like that, in a fixed order, as you do more power resets.

King of Fighters R-1, released in 1998 for the Neo Geo Pocket, epitomizes the essence of the celebrated King of Fighters series by SNK, despite the constraints of the handheld platform. This adaptation retains much of the original arcade series' spirit and character roster, albeit with necessary modifications to accommodate the console's limited control scheme and smaller screen. The game intelligently simplifies some of the series' intricate fighting mechanics, ensuring the gameplay remains deep and satisfying for fans.
The title offers players a chance to engage in combat with a well-known selection of characters from the series, organized into teams. Each character possesses unique moves and combos, upholding the strategic, team-based gameplay that is central to the series. Despite the handheld's inherent limitations, King of Fighters R-1 successfully captures the dynamic and competitive spirit of its arcade predecessors, providing an engaging experience on the go.
Initially, I underestimated the Neo Geo Pocket's capabilities, given its relatively small game library. However, this game was a delightful surprise, offering solid gameplay, appealing graphics and a challenging level of difficulty (I hate Orochi, lol). I remember being in my twenties, complaining about its limited moveset. I used to say things like, "A more extensive moveset could have potentially made it one of the best handheld fighting games of the '90s." Looking back, it’s clear the developers maximized the potential of the available hardware. Yeah, I was so naive, lol…

Game 2: Metal Slug 1st Mission (Jan 2023) Metal Slug has always been an interesting arcade shooter with some of the best pixel graphics, and some of the tightest controls out there. Sure, a lot of the game had you dying pretty easily, and the series is a known quarter muncher, but there was just something about it that made it more nuanced than simply taking all your money. Sadly, I can't say 1st Mission does anything that the Metal Slug series is known for. While a portable Metal Slug sounds great, and would later be a possibility with the likes of the PSP/DS, 1st Mission just had the Neo Geo Pocket. For a Neo Geo Pocket game they certainly do what they can with the graphics. You can tell they are going certain backgrounds, and while the sprite work pales in comparison to the arcade counterpart it looks good on the small handheld. The music isn't really anything to write home about, but it is a passable soundtrack that keeps up with the Metal Slug usual OST flare. Either way, it's notable that Metal Slug challenged what the Neo Geo Pocket can do just like it did in Arcades. On top of that, the mission structure was changed to having 17 different levels, with them being notably smaller and far more challenging due to screen crunch, terrible tank controls, and unfair enemy shots after victory. It really is odd that a series known for it's tough but fair game design just honestly had some unfair moments in it's first handheld game. 1st Mission is honestly just not forgiving to the fact you don't have as much information on the screen nor that you could have missed a simple jump or maneuver because of game lag or bad vehicle controls. By all means, this isn't to the point that it's unplayable, but I certainly wouldn't have gotten far without some sort of rewind feature. Still, I wouldn't want to deter a fan of this series from playing this game, and for what 1st Mission is, it's a unique Metal Slug game that tried to do something different, and did what it could on the handheld. While an asterisks ever looms on the "for the Neo Geo Pocket", it still has a unique charm to this day with the way it looks and how it's designed. It's a bit of a shame that you have to unlock the girl character by beating the game with the male counterpart, but it is at least something neat you get for beating the game. Other than that, Metal Slug 1st Mission is just kinda a neat game.
