NeoCD-Wii vs NeoGeo CD Redux

NeoCD-Wii is a free, open-source Nintendo Wii emulator for Neo-Geo CD games and a port of the NEO-CD REDUX GameCube emulator. Installation involves extracting the archive to an SD card or USB drive and placing game files in folders there. USB 2 support requires IOS 202. The emulator also needs a NeoGeo CD/Z BIOS named NeoCD.bin in a BIOS folder at the SD card root. Game audio belongs in each title’s MP3 directory as Trackxx.mp3 files; 44.1 or 48 kHz and 128 kbps or better are recommended. Version 0.5 lists interlaced and progressive video modes, a filter toggle, configurable Wiimote and Classic Controller buttons, saved settings, and page-based browsing. The project supports the internal SD slot and is libfat compatible. Some games may still show black screens or graphics bugs, and DVD support was untested. The repository lists GPL-3.0 licensing.

NeoGeo CD Redux is an open-source NeoGeo CD emulator with build targets for Nintendo GameCube and Wii. The Wii target runs natively rather than requiring GameCube mode. It loads game media from SD cards and DVDs, with USB loading on Wii, plus FAT-formatted SD access through WKF and FAT-formatted hard-drive access through IDE-EXI. Wii controller options listed are Wii Remote, Nunchuck, Classic Controller, and GameCube controllers when the stated detection condition is met. Video output includes progressive modes and 480i, 480p, 576i, and 576p, with component-cable detection. MP3 playback from SD and DVD is documented. Save files can use SD storage or a memory card, while WKF and IDE-EXI write support was not included in the listed release. The project lists .bin/.cue, .img, and .iso images. It is free, and the latest changelog entry is unofficial version 0.1.52A.2 from July 18, 2013.
