Neo Geo CD Console System CD-T01 Used Tested 1 Controller Boxed NTSC-J

Welcome, traveler, to the heavyweight wing of our museum—where SNK’s Neo Geo CD sits like a monument to ambition. This wasn’t just a console; it was an arcade cab shrunk for your living room, complete with the drama, the glory, and the loading screens you could make coffee during.

About the console

Released in 1994, the Neo Geo CD was SNK’s stylish successor to its cartridge titan, aiming to bring arcade-quality games to more players through the humble compact disc. And this early model, the CD-T01 front-loader, carries that classic ‘90s engineering charm—solid, heavy, and undeniably cool.

This particular unit is boxed, with matching serial numbers on the console, instruction manual, and outer box—something collectors dream about. It includes one official controller, the original AC adapter, and cables, all tested and working.
