Ah SHIT!!

The two games I want the most (King of Fighters 98 Ultimate Match Final Edition & King of Fighters 2002 Unlimited Match) aren't available on Mac.

What's the best emulator for fighting games now? I don't feel like they run accurately in GGPO or Fightcade. I feel slowdown and input lag. It's one of the reasons I yearn for legit releases of these games.

OK it's 1 AM, I'm hittin' the sack and tomorrow I'll work on figuring out how to create custom macros @_@

Can I get the roms out of this if I buy it? Are they accessible?

Yes.
After installing a game go to its folder to find the bios and the game's rom.

Fightcade.com
Takes a few minutes to figure out but afterwards you're set.
If you want AES make sure you are using the Universal Bios when running the fightcade emulator.

I'll get this after work today.

Are there any good guides for mechanics and characters for KOF98, 02, and Garou?

I'll do a quick Garou write up by tomorrow, beginner's guide etc.

If it's not too much to ask, how do I extract the roms and is running it on fightcade pretty straight forward or will I need to look up a guide?

Narrowing my earlier Retroarch question down - it looks like MAME is the best option for a RetroArch core and there's no dedicated MVS/AES core. Is that right?

Which version of the MAME core should I use? MAME, MAME 2003, or MAME 2010?

^Wait we can still get MAME 2003? Mind PMing where to get it, I'm more used to the older models @_@

Just go to a game's installation folder to find the Roms.
Fightcade is a .ZIP file you download, after extraction there will be a folder titled rom
Put the game and neo geo bios file in there.
Run fightcade and type /HELP and work your way from there.
Don't worry about any error messages, the games'll run fine. After running a game use the upper left tabs to change what you want.

MAME = 2015

OK first off got to Fightcade.com
Download the client then make a fightcade.com account
Now after extracting fightcade, copy garou and neo geo compressed folders (For example) to fightcade's rom folder.

Run fightcade, log in with your account. Find the game then type /Play to run it. Boom you can now use fightcade to play the games preoperly
Click to expand...

Did this, typed /play, tried to run the zip I found of twinkle star sprites...said it needed Bios...
HELP.
EDIT: YES! Success! Dragged the Neogeo zip into the roms folder too. Now it runs!

I'm only looking at the Libretro Wiki right now, I don't have access to my machine until later. I probably incorrectly assumed that if it's listed in the wiki it will be a core download option in Retroarch (everything else I've looked up in the past has been).

Is the game speed tied to my monitor's refresh rate? I've got a 144hz monitor and these games are running super fast. I'm just trying out the browser versions.

Thank you very much. Last question, I paid for the $10 tier but I'm not seeing the Neo Geo 25th Anniversary Soundtrack anywhere in my download list. Has it not been added yet?

There are actually some of these on Steam too.

There's obviously the Sega collections, but there's also this company Console classics
http://store.steampowered.com/search/?publisher=Console Classics

That flat out sells PSone emulated games of old ass stuff they've dug around for the rights for.

I seem to remember hear extracting the ROMs out of those SEGA collections to be a pain in the ass so they fact these DRM-free SNK ones have the same filenames as standard ROMs you can find anywhere are a relief.

I've not bought the $10 yet but change the platform type to music?

Will you play these on a web-browser (read: PC)? If yes: Yes. If no, you're strictly PS4: LOL NO. Sorry.

I just ran the SSVS sets that come from Humble Bundle through RomCenter (with a MAME 0.168 dat file), and it looks like there are enough ROM's to make the original uncensored set (samsh5sp), the first home version which was censored (samsh5sph), and the "fixed" home version which was less censored (samsh5spho). I'm not sure which ones the DotEmu emulator loads though.

What's the other bundle to get that people were talking about earlier?

Regarding this one, I feel kinda weird about it being almost all ROMs, I don't even know why. I love to see old classics coming back though, so I'm somewhat torn :)

DotEmu doesn't seem great on the Mac side. I got unnaturally heavy slowdown in Twinkle Star Sprites on a machine that should easily handle it (i5, 16 GB RAM).

This. The earlier poster saying this was his second bundle for the day got my curiosity up and I just saw a... debatable bundle in my mailbox (bundle star).

Fightcade is magic.

Cool...but black magic apparently. Now that I've put all my rom zips into the rom folder instead of just twinkle star and Garou its giving me nonstop Direct Draw error messages and it wont load any games at all!

Help...

Don't put ROMS in there that Fightcade doesn't support. If it doesn't have a lobby in the list, don't put it in there.
