Playing a Neo Geo game within Tower Unite
0In the description of one video I may have said that playing a Neo Geo game within Tower Unite despite having correctly set up, can cause the game to crash to the desktop, and it sure does: Playing a Neo Geo game is quite a chore and it always happens at random. Sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't. And certain Neo Geo games can run, but others can't. Apparently, when I saw a video of someone having run a Neo Geo game just fine, it turns out that this would only work on an Arcade Machine, which makes sense since this is MVS, and as of right now, there is no way to play Neo Geo games in AES mode as I woefully intended to. And no, the emulator within Tower Unite doesn't have an option to select which BIOs you want, even the Unibios cannot be used at this point.
What I had to do is boot up a Neo Geo game at an arcade machine and then shut it down and then play it on a console just to have it booted. And finally, it worked, but it's a real chore to get it working though.
And with a Neo Geo game finally playable, I decided to use a game that most people generally don't use for the purpose of testing Neo Geo emulation. Whereas most people, and even die-hard Neo Geo fans alike use the bigger names like Metal Slug, Samurai Shodown, KOF, Fatal Fury and whatever other big name the Neo Geo and SNK in general is heavily and synonymusly associated with as their favorite game of testing, I decided to take a game that is fairly lesser-talked about but does have a fair share of fans: The game I'm playing is Money Puzzle Exchanger, aka. Money Idol Exchanger which I had tested the Japan-only PC version of the game via DOSBox-Pure as seen in the video that I made on it when Windows 98 emulation via the RetroArch core was finally made possible, and that there were no videos of the PC version anywhere on the internet until I made the video.
I played it via the Genesis/Mega Drive-based console called the Mega Exodus, which for a Neo Geo game, does fit somewhat given that most games usually use only three buttons with the four buttons primarily used for fighting games, and that some games such as this one having very Genesis/Mega Drive-esque music as it utilizes a Yamaha sound chip also found on the original console the console I am playing is based on. I colored the console from purple to black.
