    Default NeoGeo Conversion Project

    Retro gaming aficionado, racketboy, hits us with this exciting news:

    Somebody started a thread on the Neo-Geo.com messageboards claiming to have started a project that will basically take ROMs from Neo-Geo AES/MVS games and converting them into Neo-Geo CD games. There is a major interest in this since:

    1. The original carts are expensive and people a looking for a cheap way to play the best games on the Neo-Geo console.
    2. The Dreamcast has a couple excellent Neo-Geo CD emulators (and it can’t handle most regular Neo-Geo ROMs).
    3. It’s just plain cool.

    IF this does work out, I see this as a huge development in the Dreamcast scene. The Dreamcast already has an excellent library of 2D games (especially fighters) in addition to its 3D games. But if you add on the Neo-Geo’s classic library, the Dreamcast would be a 2D gamer’s paradise! Eventually we might be able to hack together self-booting discs of every Neo-Geo game to play on Sega’s little white box. How cool is that!

    Pretty cool bit of news... we might be able to play the NeoGeo games that were never released on NeoGeo CD on our Dreamcasts using NeoDC/Neo4All.

    Also, I know there was recently a discussion here about whether it's possible to convert N64 ROMs to ISOs... well this might be our proof.

    this has been about fore a while! some neo geo cart game have been converted to a cd format. Quzar has posted a few times that a new version of NeoCD will support some cart games!

    still thanks for the news

    I remember a bit of talk as well, that a game like metal slug 3 could even be made into a neogeo cd game if it was given loading points, otherwise there just wouldn't be enough ram. As far as I know, there was never any attempt, but I haven't been following very well.

    Something every Dreamcast Owner has hoped for is Metal Slug 3 and SvC chaos.

    The next version of NeoDC WILL support as many mvs games as possible (probably at least 40 or so).
