NEO.emu is a robust open-source emulator tailored for Neogeo arcade and home systems, derived from Gngeo. With a streamlined user interface, it aims to minimize audio and video latency, ensuring compatibility across various Android devices, including older models like the Xperia Play and more recent options such as the Nvidia Shield and Pixel phones. Users can experience smooth gameplay, provided they have the necessary neogeo.zip file for BIOS support, along with access to MAME or newer sets.

This emulator includes customizable on-screen controls and is compatible with Bluetooth and USB gamepads, as well as recognized keyboards, such as Xbox and PS4 controllers. Notably, NEO.emu does not come with any pre-loaded ROMs; users are responsible for sourcing their own. Additionally, it leverages Android's storage access framework, enabling file access from both internal and external storage, including SD cards and USB drives.

Advanced open-source Neogeo arcade and home system emulator based on Gngeo 0.8-svn, designed and tested on the original Droid/Milestone, Xoom, Galaxy S2, Nexus 7, NVidia Shield, Xperia Tablet Z, and Xperia Play, but works on many devices with similar specs (performance is very fast and even works well on older ARMv6-based devices). It requires user-supplied romsets from MAME 0.144 or newer for correct operation (neogeo.zip, etc). View the full compatibility list here:
