The '''Neo Geo''' <span style="font-weight: normal">(ネオジオ ''Neo Jio'')</span> is a cartridge-based arcade system board and home video game console released on January 31, 1990 by Japanese game company SNK Playmore. Being in the fourth generation of video game consoles, it was the first system in the Neo Geo family, which ran throughout the 1990s before being revived in December 2012 with the [[Neo Geo X ]]handheld/home system.

==MVS (arcade)==

The Neo Geo family of hardware began with the Neo Geo MVS (or Multi Video System) released by SNK in 1990.  Boasting incredibly powerful specs and high quality titles, the Neo Geo quickly built a strong following in the early 90’s.  A highpoint aspect of Neo Geo arcade cabinets is that they were capable of holding and operating up to 6 (1, 2, 4, or 6) different arcade games, a unique advantage that could save operators money and floor space.
