I play Neo Geo ROMs for a long time some of my played games are: Samurai Shodown IV, The King of Fighters 2002, Metal Slug 4 Plus and many more, but I don't collect them on my PC because I don't have the memory to do it so I just download them from this website and for now, I'm very satisfied. Lakka images are available for the Raspberry Pi 0, Raspberry Pi 1, Raspberry Pi 2, Raspberry Pi 3 and 3 B+, as well as the Raspberry Pi 4. Then, it’s as easy as loading your ROMs from an external drive or via the network. I suggest a Lakka Raspberry Pi 4 installation, although a 3 or 3 B+ should offer solid performance. Lakka Post-installation. Lakka uses a ROM scanning system to generate the playlists in its horizontal menu. It is a convenient way to sort your ROMs on a per-system basis. Each ROM stored in a folder being scanned by RetroArch is checked against a database. This database is based on No-Intro and will recognize only the good dumps.

The Lakka team wishes everyone a happy new year and welcomes 2020 with a new update and a new tier-based releases system!
This new Lakka update, 2.3.2, contains RetroArch 1.8.4 (was 1.7.2), some new cores and a handful of core updates.
As part of our new tier-based updates, Lakka 2.3.2 is for now only available for the following platforms:
- 64-bit Generic (
x86_64) - Rasperry Pi 1 and Zero (with and without GPICase)
- Raspberry Pi 2 and 3
- Raspbery Pi 4
The rest of the platforms will be updated during the following weeks.
As usual, you can update by downloading the new images from the website or by going in the Online Updater directly in your Lakka box.
Lakka supports more than 40 different platforms, and it has gotten quite hard to maintain and support them all actively. Some of them are discontinued products, and nobody on the team has them anymore.
As a result, we have decided to split all platforms into different tiers. Basically, higher tier platforms will have active support and more frequent updates, and lower tier platforms will have more sparse releases (if any).
The high tier platforms are the most popular ones:
- 64-bit Generic (
x86_64) - Rasperry Pi 1 and Zero (with and without GPICase)
- Raspberry Pi 2 and 3
- Raspbery Pi 4
For now, all other platforms are placed under the lower tier category. We may do a middle tier in the future, with platforms such as Pine64 and Odroid boards, which are still quite popular nonetheless.
Keep an eye for new tier releases on this website and on our social media accounts!
It’s been a long time since Lakka got a RetroArch update. This new version adds some welcome features - the most interesting this time is the manual content scanner. You read it right, no more database is required to build your playlists!
Whether it’s because the database is missing or your platform has little memory to handle big scans, you now have the choice to do a manual scan to build playlists on your Lakka box. This new scanning method simply takes all files ending with a known extension in a folder and adds them to the playlist for that system. It’s as simple as it gets!
You can see the manual content scanner menu in the thumbnail of this article (MaterialUI menu driver).
Another quality of life improvement for playlists is the new “clean playlists” option. This allows you to clean your playlists after removing your games files, as well as resetting core association if the core doesn’t exist anymore.
This new option does the following:
- Remove all entries where the game file has been removed
- Remove all duplicates
- Resets the core association if the core can no longer be found
- RetroArch will ask you which core to use the next time you try to run a game from that playlist
- If the core association is correct but the core has been renamed since, the new core name is updated in the playlist
Neo Geo Roms Pc
Cores can be removed when updating Lakka, even if we try to do it least frequently as possible. For instance, Lakka 2.3 removed a lot of old cores in favor of their new, improved versions.
Thanks to this new clean playlists feature, removing a core is no longer considered a breaking change when updating Lakka.
The latest major improvement is the disk control overhaul, which enhances disk swapping for game with a high number of disks (such as Amiga floppy games).
You can read the entirety of the changes made to the disk swapping system in the RetroArch 1.8.4 blog post.
As usual, everything in the libretro ecosystem has been updated to the very last version: cores, databases, overlays, joypad autoconfigs…
New core: quicknes
This very lightweight Nintendo Entertainment System was only enabled for some platforms on Lakka. It is now enabled for all of them.
New cores: vitaquake2 and vitaquake3
Only available for the Generic platform for now, those two cores are open source reimplementations of the Quake II and III engines respectively. Originally written for the PlayStation Vita by Rinnegatamante, both homebrews are now available for everyone as libretro cores.
New core: NeoCD
The latest core to be added in this Lakka update is NeoCD-Libretro, an improved version of the NeoCD Neo Geo CD emulator. This new version of NeoCD is more accurate and performs better than the previous standalone emulator, even on low end hardware like a Raspberry Pi.
Goodbye dosbox, hello dosbox-svn
And finally, the old dosbox core retires with Lakka 2.3.2. The newer dosbox-svn core was added some time ago, and it’s time for it to be used as a default and for the old one to be removed.
As time goes by, we are slowly moving forward to Lakka 3.0, which we already talked about in a previous release article. We will take this opportunity to drop all the old platforms we cannot maintain and support anymore. Lakka 2.0 will still be available for those, but we won’t be moving forward with them for the future.
The list of all dropped platforms will be made available when we release Lakka 3.0.
In the meantime, you can already try Lakka 3.0 by downloading an image for your device here! Since this is a major rewrite of the system, we would like to have user feedbacks as we work on it. Don’t hesitate to post an issue on our GitHub repository.
You are also welcome to join our Discord server (#lakkatv channel) to contribute to the project, report your findings, ask for support or just hang out with retrogaming and DIY enthusiasts around the globe!
Arcade games are a special case and arcade emulation is complex.
Arcade emulators
Lakka ships two emulators able to launch arcade ROMs: MAME2003 and FBA.
FBA
FBA is set as the default emulator for Arcade in Lakka. We ship the version 0.2.97.38. It is faster than MAME and emulates the following platforms:
- Capcom CPS-1
- Capcom CPS-2
- Capcom CPS-3
- Cave
- Data East DEC-0, DEC-8 and DECO IC16 based games
- Galaxian based hardware
- Irem M62, M63, M72, M90, M92 and M107 hardware
- Kaneko 16
- Konami
- Neo-Geo
- NMK16
- Pacman based hardware
- PGM
- Psikyo 68EC020 and SH-2 based hardware
- Sega System 1, System 16 (and similar), System 18, X-Board and Y-Board
- Super Kaneko Nova System
- Toaplan 1
- Toaplan 2
- Taito F2, X, Z and others
- Miscellaneous drivers for lots of other hardware
MAME
MAME supports more games than FBA. We ship the version from 2003 also called 0.78. It is an old version, but it was the easiest to package in Lakka and it is faster than newer versions of MAME.
Arcade ROMs
Neo Geo Roms Torrent
Arcade ROMs are special and follow these rules:
- Arcade ROMs have to stay zipped, they contain many files.
- Arcade emulators are running the .zip games directly, they take care of uncompressing, while other emulators let RetroArch uncompress the ROM for them.
- Never rename an arcade ROM, the file name is an identifier that helps the emulator to know how to emulate it.
- Arcade ROMs have versions. Each arcade emulator comes with its own ROM set. A ROM that works under MAME2003 can be incompatible with MAME2014 or FBA.
- Arcade ROMs can have parents/clone relationships.
- Arcade ROMs can be of 3 types:
- Non-merged: Games are standalone, each zip contain all the files needed to run the game, including the parent ROM.
- Split: Games require the parent ROM to run.
- Merged: Clones are merged in the parent. You end up with more than one game in a single zip.
Neo Geo Cd Roms
In Lakka, we recommend you to use FBA with an FBA v0.2.97.38 split ROM set. RetroArch doesn’t support merged sets anyway.
But if you really need to run more games, choose MAME2003 with a MAME0.78 splitted ROM set.
