MVSPSP vs NeoCD/SDLx Unleashed

MVSPSP is a free, self-hosted emulator for Neo-Geo MVS and AES systems, with PSP as its supported platform. The repository is public under the GPL-3.0 license. Before playing, you must create a game cache; afterward, some files used to create that cache can be removed from the ZIP archive. The project describes modified builds compatible with HBL and identifies those versions as based on emulator releases 2.2.1 and 2.3.1. Version 2.2.0 added ROM sets supported through MAME 0.119 and bootleg sets supported by MAME Plus!. Build options include save and load states, AdHoc multiplayer, a command list, Japanese UI, and 32-bit UI drawing. AdHoc requires KERNEL_MODE, and the readme recommends disabling 32-bit drawing outside NCDZPSP to reduce memory use. PSP-2000 expanded memory is available when compiled with PSP_SLIM, while a cache remains required. The listed build environment is Cygwin with PSPSDK revision 2318.

NeoCD/SDLx Unleashed is a free Neo Geo CD emulator for the original Xbox. It runs many original Neo Geo CD games and reads real discs in ISO9660 format. The emulator does not support bin/cue or iso/mp3 images and requires an uncompressed 512 KB system BIOS named neocd.bin; the download page says a BIOS copy is permitted only for owners of an original Neo Geo CD console. It supports one or two players, full CDDA audio, region selection and memory cards. Display modes include 480p and 720p, selected according to dashboard settings. Video filters are AdvanceMame2x, Simple2x, SuperSai2x, SuperEagle and Scanline. Source code is released, and the download is a 448.6 KB ZIP attachment with no Digiex registration required. The page reports miscellaneous sound and timing issues and provides the program without warranty. The listed platform is the original Xbox. AES and MVS emulation, plus other related SNK arcade systems, are not supported.
