I think you were missing the point a bit.
What point was that?

That real consoles can only live under the tv?

That's only because we don't have an emotie that blows air out of your nose in a sort of condescending snort of suppressed mirth and incredulity.

A bit tense are we?

Everybody knows the Neo Geo and it's games weren't exactly cheap.

That's all.

Neo Geo didin't have fanboys as we know them, because the whole "gaming at home" thing was still fairly* niche. And you needed to have a helicopter full of gold bars to buy one fucking game. :D

I'll have a Hot Chocolate with mint, seeing as you are making!

It was a totally different breed of fanboy then. The one's I encountered were just simple-minded "ARCADE IN TEH HOME!" ones with rich parents. They couldn't give a damn who manufactured the box that made their cock-posturing possible.

Can I get some Marshmallows?

Different class of fanboi, perhaps - the guys who had NG's were mostly at public school, see aforementioned comment about loaded parents...

Yes everybody knows that, but we were talking about the NeoGeo Pocket!

Wires crossed i think.

Alternative definition of Fanboy could be 'person who buys console at launch without knowing for sure if it's going to sink or swim.'

Always a big mistake. You're looking at Mega CD boy here. :)

Is this like the real next-gen? :roll:
Does it cost more than it should? Are there only handful of games you can be arsed even looking at? Have the fanboys stapled banners to their backs and advanced in grim platoons to the forum trenches? If the answer to any of these is "yes" then it is next gen.
