Neo Geo Information
Neo Geo – a system of arcade machines, released by SNK (Shin Nihon Kikaku) in October 1990 in Japan. But also the system has the full name of Neo Geo Multi Video System (abbreviated as Neo Geo MVS). Neo Geo means new world. Shortly after the release of MVS, SNK decided to conquest the market of home video games. Console called Neo Geo Advanced Entertainment System (Neo Geo AES) was released and it was completely identical to the arcade machine. The resemblance was in software and hardware configuration, however, had a different slot for cartridges. Obviously, SNK didn’t want that AES would be used as a gaming machine. Smart move, but still there were some enthusiasts who have created an adapter – Phantom MVS converter thingy. By the way, the price for home system was $500 which at that time considered a big amount of money. However, up to 4 people at once could play on it!
- What are the Neo Geo Roll-Up Packs? The Roll-Up Pack List is a record of known ROMs that can be placed on an SD card for a complete Darksoft Neo Geo MVS & AES Multi setup. It includes every Neo Geo MVS/AES game that is playable on the Multis.

- Basically, the Neo Geo Base Pack will have all official games (newest revision). There will be an additional add-on with unofficial, older revisions, standalone PCB roms, etc. I also found 18 modern King of Fighters hacks, but I'm not sure if they work on real hardware.

Neo Geo games offers the user a fairly high-quality 2D graphics and high quality sound. The game system was based on a 16-bit Motorola 68000 processor and an 8-bit Z80, which was used as an audio compressor. To create the sound effect optionally could be used 15-channel sound chip Yamaha YM2610. Neo Geo roms games can be played right on your home computer or smartphone/tablet running Android or iOS. All of the necessary software can be downloaded for free on this section of site.
Here is a rom collection that I use for retropie. Included are games for. Amiga, apple2, atari 2600, atari 5200, atari 7800, atarijaguar, atarilynx, comodore 64.
The Neo Geo is a cartridge-based arcade system board and home video game console released by SNK in 1990.

There are a variety of arcade emulators available in RetroPie which can emulate Neo Geo games. There are significant differences in performance, compatibility, and configuration between them. If you're getting started with arcade emulation, start by reading Arcade.

This page is a resource for additional details on configuring a dedicated set of Neo Geo ROMs including configuration paths, controls, and the ROM sets which each emulator requires.
| Emulator | Rom Folder | Extension | Required ROM Version | Controller Config |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| lr-fbneo | neogeo | .7z .zip | FB Neo v0.2.97.44-WIP | /opt/retropie/configs/neogeo/retroarch.cfg |
| lr-fbalpha2012 | neogeo | .7z .zip | FB Alpha v0.2.97.30 | /opt/retropie/configs/neogeo/retroarch.cfg |
| PiFBA | neogeo | .zip | FB Alpha 0.2.96.71 | /opt/retropie/emulators/pifba/fba2x.cfg |
| GnGeo-Pi | neogeo | .zip | MAME 0.138 | /opt/retropie/configs/neogeo/gngeorc |
Emulators: lr-fbneo, lr-fbalpha2012, PiFBA, GnGeo-Pi
Refer to the main FinalBurn Neo page for general information on all FinalBurn emulators or the direct links above for in-depth infomation on lr-fbneo, lr-fbalpha2012, or PiFBA. In-depth information on GnGeo-Pi can be found below, which is also linked directly above.
lr-fbneo is the prefered Pi 3/Pi 2 Neo Geo emulator due to its accuracy.
lr-fbalpha2012 is useful for any games that may be running slow in the latest version of lr-fbneo for a Pi 3/Pi 2, and if used exclusively instead of lr-fbneo will allow you to do full system updates without worrying about needing to update your ROM Set, but comes at the cost of inaccuracy such as games having audio issues across the entire library and other issues that have been fixed in the latest version of lr-fbalpha.
PiFBA is recommended for those on a Pi 0 or Pi 1.

ROMS
Accepted File Extensions: .7z .zip
Place Neo Geo ROMs in:
BIOS
Neo Geo ROMs require a neogeo.zip BIOS file with the exact same MAME or FB Neo version as the emulator you select. Place the correct neogeo.zip with your ROMs in:
Instructions on how to install the Neo Geo Unibios on lr-neo can be found here: lr-fbalpha Neo Geo Bios. The Unibios can be used as documented on the official page at http://unibios.free.fr/howitworks.html.
- On the Unibios boot screen
- Neo Geo A+B+C (RetroPad B+A+Y) for BIOS Menu
- Neo Geo B+C+D (RetroPad A+Y+X) for Test Menu
- At any time
- Neo Geo Start+A+B+C (RetroPad Start+B+A+Y) for In-Game Menu
The menus allow you to change various settings like region, dip switch settings for gameplay options like difficulty or blood, and coin or free play settings. Unibios settings will persist after quitting FBA, launching another Neo Geo game, or rebooting RetroPie.
Controls
You will configure controls differently depending on which emulator you use:
lr-fbneo and lr-fbalpha2012
lr-fbneo and lr-fbalpha2012 utilise RetroArch configs. Add custom RetroArch controls to the retroarch.cfg file in:
For more information on custom RetroArch controls see: RetroArch Configuration
PiFBA
PiFBA controls are located in:
Neo Geo Aes Rom Pack
As there is no menu to configure controllers with PiFBA, like there is with Mame4all, you'll have to edit the aforementioned file manually.

Best Neo Geo Roms Pack
As a caveat, if you're using _gngeo-pi__, the ROMs you have must match the file in gngeo_data.zip located at:
Neo Geo Rom Pack
You can only play roms that have the same name as these .drv files, e.g. mslug2.zip (rom) and mslug2.drv (data). If the names of these files don't match, GnGeo-Pi will crash. (see the list at the bottom of this page for compatible ROMs)
