The engineers at SNK had an idea on their hands that would revolutionize the arcade industry and could potentially mean millions
upon millions of dollars in revenue for the company. That idea, stated simply, was the NeoGeo. NeoGeo in Arcades, NeoGeo in Homes (1989-1994) Sometime in 1988 SNK
began toying with the idea of a modular video game cabinet for use in an arcade setting. Up to that point, stand-up arcade cabinets typically contained only a
single game. When an arcade operator wanted to switch or replace that game, he'd have to completely rip the guts out of the existing cabinet or exchange the entire setup, display and all, for another. SNK's solution to the problem was an arcade machine that could pack multiple games into a single cabinet, using a cartridge-based storage mechanism similar to that employed by cheap consumer consoles. SNK introduced the MVS into arcades in 1989. The NeoGeo MVS (short for Multi-Video System) made its debut in 1989 and allowed arcade operators to display one, two, four, or six separate games in a single cabinet. In order to swap in a new game, all the operator had to do was remove one cartridge and exchange it for another. Changing the title cards and cabinet artwork for a new game took minutes, thanks to the custom cabinet designed by Neal Zook, an experienced industrial designer who also served a brief stint as SNK Corp. of America's operations director during the late 1980s.
