==Emulation issues==
* Hyper Neo-Geo 64 is poorly emulated. MAME is the only available option and, for now, Round Trip RV is the only game barely playable to the end. Excluding that title, no other game is working without nasty graphic errors, slowdowns (no matter what type of CPU/GPU you have) and terrible, glitchy sound emulation. There was a notable update for the MAME driver by [https://mamedev.emulab.it/haze/2018-starting-early/ Haze] in 2018, but don't expect for good emulation in the short future. Hyper Neo-Geo 64 is one of the last pre-2000 Arcade platforms not playable on emulators by a "big" Arcade company.
==Online Emulation On Web Browsers==
Neo Geo is being emulated also on Web Browsers. Here is [https://emulatoronline.xyz/games/neo-geo-arcade https://emulatoronline.xyz] to play online. What great is the games can be played on mobile devices too. The online emulator detects the device and activates the virtual gamepad. It is also possible to save and load game.
