Title: Where to get a Neo Geo Emulator and how to play roms with it?
Post by: Liquid Ocelot on December 15, 2008, 10:55:17 pm

I wanted to get an emulator to play Metal Slug on, a neo geo emulator. I cannot find a good one however and this is because I either don't know how to use it or it is just bad. Could someone send me a link for a good Neo Geo emulator and how I run the games on it?(There are like 6 files when i tried to download the rom with my last emulator)

Well, pretty sure this is breaking some rule but I'll tell you right now that you should get Final Burn Alpha.

You'll have to find the games and the BIOS yourself, but they really aren't hard to get.

Neorage isn't the best anymore, it's a good emulator but the compatibility isn't as good as the newest FBA and you can't do nearly as much with the video and sound settings. Plus, with FBA you get support for other platforms like CPS1, CPS2, etc. Both are really fast though, you'll get a lot better performance with these than using, say, MAME.

imo, final burn alpha/mame are your best bets.

I used both for Neogeo games and they're really good. No need to get neo-geo-only emus.

It's hard to really come down on someone for asking for NEOGEO ROMZ considering how old/relatively obscure and unavailable the system and games are these days.
