Retro DNA SNK Demonstration

Trust the Retro DNA folks from Singapore to put on a showstopper of a display. The group’s past efforts in GameStart Asia 2014 onwards have been nothing but impressive even among the most jaded of collectors and gamers.

This year’s booth should not be any less impressive. For SNK’s 40th anniversary, the group will make every single SNK and Neo Geo game playable for the whole weekend. That’s right: it’s not just these top 15 titles on this here feature. Retro DNA has all the SNK games; just ask them and they’ll gladly sort you out.

Not only that, there will also be NG:DEV.TEAM games on display and playable for the public. For those not in the know, the NG:DEV.TEAM games are awesome SNK-powered titles made way after the demise of the Neo Geo consoles.
