The NeXTlevel was NeXT Software's first handheld device, eagerly awaited but canned just two weeks from release when Apple purchased NeXT and chose not to pursue gaming. All 250,000 release devices were pulled from channels and unceremoniously rolled into landfill out northwest of Dubbo.
I believe that's the 1992 10th anniversary edition, with a proper color screen, the 1982 version compensated it's black and white LCD screen by using garish colors on the frame.
Wasn’t NeXT a successor to BeOS? If I’m remembering that correctly, then that color makes perfect sense!
I guess it also explains why I like the appearance of my PlayDate so much…
