NEO-GEO CD games emulation

[bomb2022]

so i want to play the neo geo cd games you guys have here https://retrogametalk.com/repository/neo-geo-cd/

but i think my neo emulator i use FinalBurn Neo can't run your files, they seem to be merged...

i only know how to run unmerged games whit the right bios
how can i run your games on FinalBurn Neo or do i need a new neo emulator for them?

NeoCD is the main one for the Neo Geo CD, considering it's not really connected to the arcade hardware like the MVS/AES is.

Looks like it. Tbh, I'm in the minority that runs RetroArch, and NeoCD is its only core. Then again, I've also heard it's the only reliable one out there...

As far as NEO GEO CD emulation you'll need neocdz.zip & neogeo.zip

i also prefer non merged standalone games as i don't have the time nor interest to play every game

No one told you to download the whole library of roms
Just get neogeo.zip & neocdz.zip
That's why you use search & filter through torrent content

get where you just linked to a site whit mame files and and a emulator wiki whit no dowloads...

or do you mean this "MAME 0.277 ROMs (merged)" is actually neocdz.zip and i need to rename it or something?

Please avoid sharing links to pirated content in the forum. (including bios files and roms)
You can use DM for this purpose.

No you don't rename the files. Those files are required for Neo Geo CD. Just place those files where the .exe is located. I placed my bin/cue in neocdiso folder.
