This year marks the 40th anniversary of video game company SNK. To mark the occasion, the company announced this past weekend during PAX East that a 40th Anniversary Collection of its games is coming to the Switch. However, it seems like that isn't SNK's only plan for celebrating its big milestone.
In a tweet on the Japanese SNK Twitter account, the company announced that they are planning to release hardware this year, containing a collection of Neo Geo games including The King of Fighters, Fatal Fury, Samurai Shodown, and Metal Slug.
今年、SNKブランドは40周年を迎えます。『KOF』『餓狼伝説』『サムスピ』『メタスラ』など、SNKの作品を支持して頂いているファンの皆様への感謝の気持ちを込め、NEOGEOの人気タイトルを収録した新しいゲーム機が登場します！ご期待ください。The Future is Now! #SNK #SNK40th #NEOGEO #ネオジオ pic.twitter.com/zxXK5QQ8D2

While very little information was given, other than an image of something under a cloth, we can assume that it'll likely be a retro console very much in the vain of the NES or SNES Classic.
