Three little words are enough to explain the excitement: Neo Geo AES+.**\n\n### A leak that didn't go unnoticed\n\nIt all started with a rating published on the ESRB website, the American video game classification body. The title *Samurai Shodown V Special* was listed there on a previously unknown platform called **Neo Geo AES+**, with **PLAION** listed as the publisher. The page has since been taken down, but screenshots had already made their rounds.\n\n### PLAION, the modern retro hardware specialist\n\nIf the name doesn't ring a bell, their products probably will: the Atari 2600+, the Atari 7800+, the A500 Mini, and The C64 Mini. The formula is always the same — take the aesthetic of a cult machine, pack in emulation, and for some models, allow the use of original cartridges. The **\"+\"** suffix is their signature for this range, which makes the mention of \"Neo Geo AES+\" hard to interpret any other way.\n\n![title](https://api.recalbox.com/parse/files/recalbox/f9b706d4e72196d26640aabc2d6a0940_neo-geo-aes-jpg.jpeg)\n\n### A bit of context\n\nThe Neo Geo was launched in 1990 by SNK in two formats: the **MVS** for arcade cabinets, and the **AES** for the home ([by the way, Recalbox versions from 10.0.2 onwards now properly distinguish between the two with two separate logos in the system list](https://www.recalbox.com/fr/blog/2026-03-27-v10-recalbox-mise-a-jour-update-retrogaming/)). The latter offered an experience identical to the arcade at home — an impressive feat for the time, but at a prohibitive price: nearly 650 dollars at launch, equivalent to over 1,500 dollars today. As a result, it has become a highly sought-after collector's item, with some rare cartridges changing hands for several thousand euros.\n\nSNK has already attempted several hardware revivals with mixed results: the Neo Geo X in 2012, the Neo Geo Mini in 2018, and the Neo Geo Arcade Stick Pro in 2019.\n\n### What's next?\n\nNo official announcement has been made at this stage. If PLAION does confirm a Neo Geo AES+, we can reasonably expect their usual formula: built-in emulation, HDMI output, and perhaps compatibility with original AES cartridges? Stay tuned...\n\n*Sources: [timeextension.com](https://www.timeextension.com/news/2026/04/hopes-of-neo-geo-hardware-revival-triggered-by-esrb-rating) / [renpou.com](https://x.com/yoshinokentarou/status/2042787158159978724)*","language":"en","objectId":"3rhJJIjJM4","tags":["Neo-Geo"],"original":true,"publishDate":{"iso":"2026-04-13T14:11:30.211Z"},"localJumbo":{"childImageSharp":{"gatsbyImageData":{"layout":"constrained","placeholder":{"fallback":"data:image/jpeg;base64,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"},"images":{"fallback":{"src":"/static/73f58cd85beb6f08ef8e9cd01600f048/ea506/22a0f39050a8882caabf1d60b775f9e7_neo-geo-aes-rating-jpg.jpg","srcSet":"/static/73f58cd85beb6f08ef8e9cd01600f048/33dc3/22a0f39050a8882caabf1d60b775f9e7_neo-geo-aes-rating-jpg.jpg 361w,\n/static/73f58cd85beb6f08ef8e9cd01600f048/8fb79/22a0f39050a8882caabf1d60b775f9e7_neo-geo-aes-rating-jpg.jpg 721w,\n/static/73f58cd85beb6f08ef8e9cd01600f048/ea506/22a0f39050a8882caabf1d60b775f9e7_neo-geo-aes-rating-jpg.jpg 1442w","sizes":"(min-width: 1442px) 1442px, 100vw"},"sources":[{"srcSet":"/static/73f58cd85beb6f08ef8e9cd01600f048/fe4f3/22a0f39050a8882caabf1d60b775f9e7_neo-geo-aes-rating-jpg.webp 361w,\n/static/73f58cd85beb6f08ef8e9cd01600f048/fdbee/22a0f39050a8882caabf1d60b775f9e7_neo-geo-aes-rating-jpg.webp 721w,\n/static/73f58cd85beb6f08ef8e9cd01600f048/82921/22a0f39050a8882caabf1d60b775f9e7_neo-geo-aes-rating-jpg.webp 1442w","type":"image/webp","sizes":"(min-width: 1442px) 1442px, 100vw"}]},"width":1442,"height":796},"original":{"src":"/static/22a0f39050a8882caabf1d60b775f9e7_neo-geo-aes-rating-jpg-73f58cd85beb6f08ef8e9cd01600f048.jpeg"}}},"localImages":[{"name":"f9b706d4e72196d26640aabc2d6a0940_neo-geo-aes-jpg","publicURL":"/static/3ee55d24c9375fa6dfa4010d84c60e46/f9b706d4e72196d26640aabc2d6a0940_neo-geo-aes-jpg.jpeg"},{"name":"22a0f39050a8882caabf1d60b775f9e7_neo-geo-aes-rating-jpg","publicURL":"/static/73f58cd85beb6f08ef8e9cd01600f048/22a0f39050a8882caabf1d60b775f9e7_neo-geo-aes-rating-jpg.jpeg"}],"wroteBy":{"username":"LittleG4M3","avatar":{"url":"https://api.recalbox.com/parse/files/recalbox/22aa7548bed64a2419bd3c6ba4da6b33_presstart.png"},"twitter":"https://x.com/LittleG4M3","background":null}},{"i18nId":"2026-04-13-neo-geo-aes-retrogaming-hardware","state":"published","title":"Neo Geo AES+ : Un retour hardware Neo-Geo ?","content":"**Une note de classification apparue — puis supprimée — sur le site de l'ESRB (équivalent américain du PEGI européen) a mis le feu aux poudres dans la communauté rétrogaming. Trois petits mots suffisent à expliquer l'agitation : Neo Geo AES+.**\n\n### Une fuite qui ne passe pas inaperçue\n\nTout est parti d'un rating publié sur le site de l'ESRB, l'organisme américain de classification des jeux vidéo. Le titre *Samurai Shodown V Special* y était référencé sur une plateforme inédite baptisée **Neo Geo AES+**, avec le nom de **PLAION** en éditeur. La fiche a depuis été retirée, mais les captures d'écran ont eu le temps de circuler.\n\n### PLAION, le spécialiste du hardware rétro moderne\n\nSi le nom ne vous dit rien, leurs produits vous parlent sûrement : l'Atari 2600+, l'Atari 7800+, l'A500 Mini ou encore The C64 Mini. La recette est toujours la même — reprendre l'esthétique d'une machine culte, embarquer de l'émulation, et pour certains modèles, permettre d'utiliser les cartouches d'origine. Le suffixe **\"+\"** est leur signature pour cette gamme, ce qui rend la mention \"Neo Geo AES+\" difficile à interpréter autrement.\n\n ![title](https://api.recalbox.com/parse/files/recalbox/f9b706d4e72196d26640aabc2d6a0940_neo-geo-aes-jpg.jpeg) \n\n### Un peu de contexte\n\nLa Neo Geo a été lancée en 1990 par SNK sous deux formats : le **MVS** pour les bornes d'arcade, et l'**AES** pour le salon ([d'ailleurs les versions de Recalbox depuis la 10.0.2 vont dorénavant bien faire la différence avec 2 logos bien distincts dans la liste des systèmes](https://www.recalbox.com/fr/blog/2026-03-27-v10-recalbox-mise-a-jour-update-retrogaming/)). Cette dernière proposait une expérience rigoureusement identique à l'arcade à domicile — une prouesse pour l'époque, mais à un prix prohibitif : près de 650 dollars au lancement, soit plus de 1 500 dollars en valeur actuelle. Résultat, c'est aujourd'hui un objet de collection très recherché, dont certaines cartouches rares s'échangent à plusieurs milliers d'euros.\n\nSNK a déjà tenté plusieurs renaissances matérielles avec des résultats inégaux : la Neo Geo X en 2012, la Neo Geo Mini en 2018, ou encore la Neo Geo Arcade Stick Pro en 2019.\n\n### Et maintenant ?\n\nAucune annonce officielle n'a été faite à ce stade. Si PLAION confirme bien un Neo Geo AES+, on peut raisonnablement s'attendre à leur formule habituelle : émulation embarquée, sortie HDMI, et peut-être une compatibilité avec les cartouches AES originales ? Affaire à suivre...\n\n*Sources : [timeextension.com](https://www.timeextension.com/news/2026/04/hopes-of-neo-geo-hardware-revival-triggered-by-esrb-rating) / [renpou.com](https://x.com/yoshinokentarou/status/2042787158159978724)*","language":"fr","objectId":"BYLlIE0ZoV","tags":["Neo-Geo"],"original":true,"publishDate":{"iso":"2026-04-13T14:11:30.211Z"},"localJumbo":{"childImageSharp":{"gatsbyImageData":{"layout":"constrained","placeholder":{"fallback":"data:image/jpeg;base64,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"},"images":{"fallback":{"src":"/static/73f58cd85beb6f08ef8e9cd01600f048/ea506/22a0f39050a8882caabf1d60b775f9e7_neo-geo-aes-rating-jpg.jpg","srcSet":"/static/73f58cd85beb6f08ef8e9cd01600f048/33dc3/22a0f39050a8882caabf1d60b775f9e7_neo-geo-aes-rating-jpg.jpg 361w,\n/static/73f58cd85beb6f08ef8e9cd01600f048/8fb79/22a0f39050a8882caabf1d60b775f9e7_neo-geo-aes-rating-jpg.jpg 721w,\n/static/73f58cd85beb6f08ef8e9cd01600f048/ea506/22a0f39050a8882caabf1d60b775f9e7_neo-geo-aes-rating-jpg.jpg 1442w","sizes":"(min-width: 1442px) 1442px, 100vw"},"sources":[{"srcSet":"/static/73f58cd85beb6f08ef8e9cd01600f048/fe4f3/22a0f39050a8882caabf1d60b775f9e7_neo-geo-aes-rating-jpg.webp 361w,\n/static/73f58cd85beb6f08ef8e9cd01600f048/fdbee/22a0f39050a8882caabf1d60b775f9e7_neo-geo-aes-rating-jpg.webp 721w,\n/static/73f58cd85beb6f08ef8e9cd01600f048/82921/22a0f39050a8882caabf1d60b775f9e7_neo-geo-aes-rating-jpg.webp 1442w","type":"image/webp","sizes":"(min-width: 1442px) 1442px, 100vw"}]},"width":1442,"height":796},"original":{"src":"/static/22a0f39050a8882caabf1d60b775f9e7_neo-geo-aes-rating-jpg-73f58cd85beb6f08ef8e9cd01600f048.jpeg"}}},"localImages":[{"name":"f9b706d4e72196d26640aabc2d6a0940_neo-geo-aes-jpg","publicURL":"/static/3ee55d24c9375fa6dfa4010d84c60e46/f9b706d4e72196d26640aabc2d6a0940_neo-geo-aes-jpg.jpeg"},{"name":"22a0f39050a8882caabf1d60b775f9e7_neo-geo-aes-rating-jpg","publicURL":"/static/73f58cd85beb6f08ef8e9cd01600f048/22a0f39050a8882caabf1d60b775f9e7_neo-geo-aes-rating-jpg.jpeg"}],"wroteBy":{"username":"LittleG4M3","avatar":{"url":"https://api.recalbox.com/parse/files/recalbox/22aa7548bed64a2419bd3c6ba4da6b33_presstart.png"},"twitter":"https://x.com/LittleG4M3","background":null}}],"language":"es","i18n":{"language":"es","languages":["en","fr","pt","it","de","es"],"defaultLanguage":"en","routed":true,"resources":{"es":{"database":{"Supported systems":"Sistemas soportados","All supported systems":"¡Encuentra todos los sistemas compatibles con Recalbox!","A long time ago":"Hace mucho tiempo...","XX years ago":"Hace {{date}} años..."},"diy":{"Hardware":"Hardware","Installation":"Instalación","Free":"Gratis","Recalbox on your PC":"Recalbox en tu PC","TV":"TV","Recalbox is free":"Recalbox es totalmente gratis. ¡Descargar, instalar y jugar!","Play again to 100":"Juega a miles de juegos en más de 100 sistemas","+100 systems":"100+ sistemas","NEXT GEN":"NEXT GEN"},"download":{},"faq":{},"home":{"The all in one retrogaming console!":"La consola retrogaming\n\n¡**todo en uno**!","Play again to all your consoles!":"¡Vuelve a jugar a **todas las consolas, máquinas y juegos* de tu infancia!","We help you in four steps":"Te ayudamos a montar tu Recalbox ***en sólo 4 etapas***.","Go to step 1":"Ir a la etapa 1","I already have hardware":"Ya tengo el material!","I want it!":"Quiero una!","Download and install last version":"¡Bájate e instala la última versión de Recalbox en tu aparato!","Download":"Descargar","Recalbox Features":"Copia de seguridad instantánea, vuelta atrás, scraping, overlays, shaders, teclado virtual, búsqueda múltiple.
