http://broodwar30katromsets.net23.net/ or you can just go to my uploads page here https://kat.cr/user/bloodwar30/uploads/ and shuffle through. One more awesome handheld console is Neo Geo Pocket. Honestly, just the combination of Neo Geo name and "Pocket", blows my mind. The cartridges of Neo Geo looked liked a small console by themselves.. so these games going.. in your pocket.. Lol. Anyway, Thankfully unlike WonderSwan, Neo Geo Pocket seems to have English games :) If you will not read more than this, keep in mind that Emulators might require the BIOS files I included, or else they will not work! This Romset is meant to be one that does not have any duplicate games in it and it is NOT for collectors, but for people that want to just get the roms and play, without having 5-6 different versions of the same game. My target is to keep a single game out of all the different releases, meaning that there should be only a single rom for each game. I have gotten these roms from Emuparadise and thus decided to share them packed all together, rather than each one separate. If you want to play only some games and not download them all, then visit Emuparadise and get them from there. This Romset is made from the latest No-Intro (no hacked games) pack from Emuparadise. I have tried my best to not have duplicate games, but even so, there might be a couple left that I did not detect. If you find any duplicate game, please do report it in comments. Always though first test the game to see if it is a duplicate, rather than just considering it a duplicate because of the name! There are quite a few roms that have the same exact name, but they are different games! Always test them first! Main ROMSet This romset is split in two. One is the original Monochrome console that came out first and the second is the Color one. Neo Geo Pocket Monochrome has only 5 American/European roms and 4 Japanese ones, but the Color one has 42 American/European and 34 Japanese roms :D All Romsets have a normal one and a Mame-Edition as I named it! The Mame-Edition romsets have usually less games than the normal ones, but as their variation impies, they are made to be compatible with MAME. I am sure MAME users know it by now, but for people that do not, MAME is really picky with the roms it uses. If the roms do not have specific naming, MAME will just ignore the file, as if it is not there. For that reason I made an extra pack for every console, that includes roms in a form that MAME would recognize them. If you are not going to use MAME, then you do not need the Mame-Edition Romsets. Extra I have also included some separate extra packs of roms, which are either pirate or hack games and some other oddities. Both have BIOS files, which one version is normal and the other is for MAME. No need for me to say, but you really need to properly install BIOS if you want the games to work, mostly for MAME. Unknown can be games that for one or another reason were not Licensed, but are good games, to bootlegs or just some ROMS I could not check for integrity. Just shuffle through them, delete what you do not care for and keep whatever you like. If you wonder what are the Public Domain roms, you can look it up in wikipedia, since you will understand it much better, than me trying to explain. Games List I have compiled a list of the Main Romset games in different formats, from normal text, to rtf and two different type of excel formats. The txt and rtf obviously can be read by the default Windows document readers, Notepad and Wordpad. The txt is simple where the rtf looks like a nice list in boxes, looking like an excel. The Excel ones, ods and xml, are for either OpenOffice or Microsoft Office and they have filters to filter out versions and regions. If you download more than one of my romsets, you can always combine the Excel pages, by copying them all in a single Excel file. Just suggesting that for people that do not want to have a lot of different excel files. I am only suggesting the Emulator and Frontend. I do not include them in the pack! Emulator For emulator I ended up using NeoPop. It is quite old, being from 2003 and obviously abandoned since the homepage is gone. I tried it for a while and it played normally, without problems or whatnot. Nothing more to add really, since it worked out of the box. One annoying thing to say, is that it turns off Aero Theme, but I am sure it is going it for the best XD There seem to be another Emulator that is quite newer too, called NeoGPC. This one is from 2013, but it seems a bit unstable if you ask me. Also it does not play the Monochrome games, but considering how little games there are, I do not think that is a problem. Frontend Finally I want to suggest LaunchBox. Launchbox is a frontend for multiple emulators and if anything it is the best I have found out there. It is easy to import games in it's interface, it suggests the best emulator to get when for each console, when you try to add an emulator and it has the best interface I have found. Weirdly, I like the free UI it offers (LaunchBox) and not the paid one that people that buy it can get (BigBox). The LaunchBox UI shows every game in a list with a picture of the cover or a screenshot from in game and that is really nice for me. The paid UI it offers just shows a list and only when you choose the name you can see any pictures of it. It can automatically look into picture databases and download pictures for a lot of the games. You can check the screenshot to see what I mean. You can follow this tutorial, which will help you combine the ultimate emulator, with the ultimate frontend :D This Video might be for RetroArch, but it has a quick tutorial about Launchbox in it too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oeozvnb_-eI Retroarch is more or less a multiplatform frontend, that can internally use emulators from all systems out there. It is a bit intimidating, but if you combine that with Launchbox, you will have a single Emulator (with made different internal ones) and a really nice free frontend for it :) Personally I use separate emulators and Retroarch only when it is about using emulation for older systems, like atari for example. Take care and have fun with all the games :D Sharing WidgetScreenshots |
