any reason this hasnt been attempted? or has it, and i dont know about it? the reason i ask is because of the availabilty (and abundance) of the titles.

this is just a guess. NeoCD was probably easy to port (and im just guessing based on how quickly it evolved).Quote:

i havent heard anyone try to attempt it. But it sounds like a good idea. I could give it a shot but im not developing any emus for the public right now.
Its also because the neogeo cart roms are huge and the system was fairly powerfull it self.
hmmm... We'll see how it goes for now.
If someone can get it started ill ceck it out.
i would say lack of ram and the lack of understanding of the GPU
i checked a few titles, and the cart roms r smaller that the cds as a whole. i sure the cds r huge bcuz of the music.Quote:

if neo4all is ever released with mvs emulation, that will probably be ported into the NeoCD emulators. The biggest problem is that all the open source emulators of the neogeo are very very bulky and do not try at all to conserve memory (which is why i've opted for making a cobbleware emulator).
