The Blaze Sega handhelds are capable of holding more roms within the SD card so I can only hope this will be the same. The reports say that it will have an expandable SD card slot. But there is the Atari flashback 3 made by Blaze that dose not have SD expansion. I don't expect any more SD card packs to made either.

For me it is going to come down to the build quality of this. Especially the joystick.

Time will tell I guess.

If its $200 with the stick, I really hope the standalone stick is in the sub$75 range. If they are $50, and build like normal AES sticks, Ill buy four on day one.

This is emulation and I am sure the are some emulation issues.
Still worth more to get a cab with some really good games. The set ups are cheaper then ever and cheaper than most realize. Let´s not expect too much. I can´t image the joystick is not going to suck. Call me a pessimist maybe.

You are a pessimist maybe. What emulation issues do you think it is going to have? Those are very low impact Neogeo games that run fine on my old 600mhz pc via NeoRageX. If it had something like Prehistoric Isle 2 or Gunlord, I would imagine it would have emulation issues.

Also gotta see what and how the base works. That info isn't on their site. Is it, you plug the system into the base to play on the TV?
And yeah, I have a feeling that licensing will keep a lot of game off the machine...

I'm still not convinced it will be emulation. I need more information.

Obviously info is what we all don't have now but, do you really think they're gonna put in the chips from the Neo to make it run 100% accurate? Emulation is just cheaper hence their margin will be better and emulation is "good enough".
