Found the chance to do some more testing:

Spoiler

FBA

CPS1
note: add pnickj.zip to the list (thanks Hielkenator)

CPS2

NEO GEO
note: also add rbffspec.zip to the list (thanks Charco)
add vliner.zip and pbobblen.zip (thanks Hilekenator)

And on the subject of non working games:
NYW
Note:disregard the Ironclad.zip, Xsleena.zip and Asterix.zip as they are NOT FBA roms (thanks Hielkenator)
vliner.zip, pbobble.zip and pnickj.zip also work (see above)

Some of those have palette issues, others run great as far as performance goes, but buttons do not register in gameplay (Arkanoid, Arkanoid 2, Funkyjet) and others with gameplay that slows down: (Darius, Ddux, Dinorex, Cninja, Cbuster, Cadash etc)

I'd REALLY like anyone that gets games from the NYW list to work fine, to SHARE it with us. Let's build a compatibility list people!

Ugh, please guys use spoilers with big posts, this gets really unreadable and annoing here..

Ironclad, was'nt a NEOGEO game it's NEOGEOCD game later ported to the Wii VC.
Pnickies CPS1 does work, So does Vliner.zip and pbobblen.zip ( bad romname in your list) NEO GEO.
Alien storm also works you need to wait longer.
Androdun.zip missing from your neogeo list, working.
Bakatono.zip missing from working neogeo games.
Bstars.zip missing from working neogeo list.
Burningf.zip missing from working neogeo list, also janshin.zip missing from that list of working games.
Kof96.zip is not suppose to work because of ram limit so that does not belong in the working list.
Mahretsu.zip,marukodq.zip, miexchng.zip, minasan.zip, mosyougi.zip missing from working neogeo list. Also missing pbobblna.zip from that list...Also pnyaa.zip and popbounce.zip.
quizdais.zip, quisdai2.zip, quizkof.zip are also missing from neogeo working list.
rbff1.zip is a big rom/ not working .tws96.zip missing from working list neogeo.
pzloop2.zip is a non working rom and does not show up in the fba neogeo master list...

Really? zintrick? is'nt that neogeo cd game? I do not think it's supose to work.
And that is just mostly the neogeo working list.
I suggest you get fba and validate your roms, before posting.

Thanks for the feedback! Please check those out some of those again, they work just fine:
zintrick Works
Kof96 Works
Rbff1 Works
Rbffspec Works

As for the Korean or Japanese Quiz and Mahjong games were left out on purpose, I really don't think anyone is interested in those...

Thanks for the others, will add them to the neogeo list.


Ethelboss, sure thing .

Ethelboss, sure, will take care of it.

Really? What is your filesize? The games you mention are bigger than the 23 mb limit.
Zintrick is a hacked rom.

 

[nakata6790]

@Hielkenator:

 

[Hielkenator]

The first 3 are bigger than 23 mb no way they load.
zintrick is a hack, fba retroarch does not support hacks if I recall.

 

[nakata6790]

Dude you can play them just fine on Wii, why don't you try them?
Kof96 even worked ever since 0.9.7!

Btw 1MB=1024kb, maybe that's throwing you off...

Zintrick is a homebrew, fba doesn't recognize it as but it DOES work. As i said, i verify by playtesting on the Wii itself, not only by the PC FBA filtering

 

[Hielkenator]

Kof96 even worked ever since 0.9.!

I have these roms validated through fba and they are the same filesize, yet they do not work.
Is retroarch able to load the files greater than 23 mb now?
I'll try again...

 

[nakata6790]

If you still have issues with those 3, please send me a PM man maybe we have different roms.
Also Charco mentioned that rbffspec works for him too, and that is 23,7MB. So i'll say it again, try them on the Wii

Well I tried the roms you pointed me too but no dice.
They do not work, unless you can prove me wrong.
Are you using the latest FBA cores neogeo v0.2.97.28?
How did you surpass the ram limit?

 

[nakata6790]

Have you downloaded the neogeo.zip as well?
The games work, why do i have to prove you wrong? Should i take photos?
As i said the larger one (rbffspec) also works for other people too. Core is the latest fba neo geo one 0.9.8.4.

Hmm I could try a different bios. I'll let you know!

"Not all NeoGeo games can be loaded. If the ROM filesize is over 23 MB or so, it might crash on load." Quoted from the OP. some roms over 23MB do work. It's not like the devs have put an actual limiter for rom size. Hence the "might crash", u see in that sentence. KOF96 and rbffspec.zip work for me as well. Using 0.8.9.4

How can this be? I've updated the neogeo bios files, and have the same roms, yet retroarch tells me"an error occured during rom loading"
I'm stumped, here. What could be the issue here?
Zintrick I cannot get to work either.

 

[nakata6790]

Have you done a fresh install of 0.9.8.4? Delete the old apps/retroarch-wii folder and copied the new one?
I really can't think of anything else why it doesn't work for you.

==EDIT==
No worries man!

 

[Hielkenator]

OHHHHHHHHHHHH I fucked up.
sorry,you are right.
Neogeo bios need to be in the roms folder....
Just recently I seperated folders leaving one folder without the bios file..
Thank you guys!!!

My bad and yes, I'm stupid!

Missing in Action does work, also looks like Sky Kid also suffers from sped-up music.

 

[Charco]

I just noticed something, when two controllers are recognised (I have two normal Classic Controllers) and you restart RetroArch, it re-registered player 2 as player one on start up.

'does work' or 'doesn't work'?
