8BitDo has revealed its next retro-inspired controller, a rebirth of the SNK Neo Geo controller, which the company has been working on for the last three years. Like the source material, 8BitDo’s take on this controller features a compact design, four colorful face buttons, and a remake of the original click-style joystick.
Even better, this controller has SNK’s seal of approval and has been officially licensed by the company. This faithful replica is available to preorder now ahead of its August 15 release date. There’s a standard black edition for $35 and four variants celebrating The King of Fighters ’97 for $40 each: Iori Yagami, Terry Bogard, Kyo Kusanagi, and Mai Shiranui.
