How to Emulate SNK NeoGeo MVS/AES Games on Your Wii

Are you a fan of classic arcade games like Metal Slug, Bust-A-Move Again, or Riding Hero? Do you want to experience them on your Wii console? Look no further! This tutorial will guide you through the process of injecting SNK NeoGeo MVS/AES games onto your Wii Virtual Console (VC) using RetroArch, NeoRAGEx, NGAE, and other emulators.

To begin, you'll need to identify the banner.bin file for your desired game. For example, if you're looking at a WAD file for Baseball Stars 2, the banner.bin file is located in the 00000006.app file. If it's Metal Slug, you'll find it in the 00000005.app file. Make sure to note that the largest app file typically contains the banner.bin file.

Once you've found the correct file, take a snapshot of your game by following the first step. This will allow you to edit the banner.bin file and customize the save icon and title.

Important

If you're ready to emulate SNK NeoGeo MVS/AES games on your Wii, here's what you need to know. Some of these games, like Neo Pong and Bust-A-Move Again, don't require the NeoGeo BIOS to boot properly. Instead, they load directly into the game. This is an important consideration when following this tutorial.

In conclusion, if you're looking to experience classic SNK NeoGeo MVS/AES games on your Wii console, follow these steps carefully and be mindful of the potential risks involved. With RetroArch, NeoRAGEx, NGAE, or other emulators, you'll be able to relive the nostalgia of these iconic arcade games in no time.

Remember: If you're new to custom Wii VC WADS, it's highly recommended that you have installed a brick protection system such as BootMii or Priiloader before attempting this tutorial. Failure to follow these instructions and/or incorrectly packing the 00000000.app file can result in hard-bricking your Wii console.
