Neo Geo Pocket Color Technical page
While the system itself may be dead in North America, there is a small development scene devoted to producing Neo Geo Pocket (color) titles, of a homebrew nature.  This page is dedicated to bring you the resources necessary to get involved in developing for the system, or at least give some insight as to the power behind the machine.
