The biggest game SNK was pushing at its booth wasn't even playable on the show floor. We didn't think so either. Cool Cool Toon is somewhere between Space Channel 5 and PaRappa, with cartoon cuteness, but also some funky grooves behind it.
Characters range from a cartoony boy and girl to less human-looking animals.
We're not sure exactly how this one will play, but it looks and sounds pretty cool at this early stage. The NGPC version wasn't shown at all, just announced. NGPC-wise, there wasn't much to be had. SNK set up a tiny cafe area called Digital Food Pockets where gamers could sit at diner tables and play some of SNK's latest portable games. Sonic the Hedgehog Pocket Adventure was released in the US before Christmas, but it still hasn't come out in Japan.
