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
