0_0!
Does it improve the load times? If so, how do I burn that boot disc? I have a model 2 Neo Geo CD, and the load times are so bad it is pretty much unplayable.


See for yourself. It took nearly 17 seconds to load the first round of RB: FFS. I find that unacceptable, but I don't know how it compares to the Neo Geo CD.

Thanks. I downloaded it. I know I played some fighting games on the Neo Geo CD and it took a good 60 seconds or more to load a fight. This may be much faster after all.

You absolutely have to play Windjammers. It's like Pong on crack. It's super fast-paced, has powerups, and is just a total blast to play. Here's a video:

that's not gonna happen. This was just a happy surprise. So it's either, "oh cool I can play these too" or I just won't play them.

Nice username, though.

are we sure that the bootdisc doesn't allow for play of actual NGCD discs? I'm not talking about AES4ALL or anything. I'm just confused why it would make a difference for it to be a copy rather than the original?

It's amazing how you associate someone with their avatar. But I can't seem to remember his previous avatar. I would recognize if I saw it though.

EDIT: images.google.com answered my question. I put in "noiseredux avatar" and it's the first one.

Surprised no one else mentioned Pulstar or Top Hunter. Both work great on the NeoCD emulator.
