Minimal ADB and Fastboot Tools Download. Minimal ADB and Fastboot Tool helps in installing ADB and Fastboot drivers on your windows machine. So, that you can use ADB or Fastboot commands to perform some tasks like adb sideload, installing TWRP Recovery, flashing etc. Each time I've had an identical bios file (neogeo.zip) in the folder containing the roms themselves, as well as retroarch's system folder. Unfortunately, anytime I double click a Neogeo game in launchbox, like I would for any other system, nothing happens. CoolROM.com's game information and ROM download page for Neo-Geo (MAME).
The Neo Geo is a cartridge-based arcade system board and home video game console released by SNK in 1990.
See also: FinalBurn Neo, MAME.
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 |

Emulators: lr-fbneo, lr-fbalpha2012, PiFBA, GnGeo-Pi
Refer to the main FB 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:
As there is no menu to configure controllers with PiFBA, like there is with Mame4all, you'll have to edit the aforementioned file manually.

As a caveat, if you're using _gngeo-pi__, the ROMs you have must match the file in gngeo_data.zip located at:
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)
