  • Please ensure that you have the most up-to-date verion of this list by checking the website
  • Please ensure that you have the most up-to-date verion of NeoPop by checking the website
  • If you feel that a saved state is required to explain the problem, PLEASE SEND THE ACCOMANYING FLASH DATA (the .NGF file, if available) as your settings may differ from mine and THIS WILL HAVE A BEARING ON THE RESULTS!
  • Also, if it's possible, please save the state a little before the problem occurs, saving during the problem is usually too late.

"Cool Boarders"

  • In-race status bar is corrupted and flickers a bit.
  • The music becomes corrupted after the first race.

Dark Arms - Beast Buster 1999 (JUE) [a1] [!]

    Throws up a whole load of errors about unimplemented opcodes. After that, all that you get is a very light grey screen. Seems to be a bad dump as it's compressed size is much smaller than the other versions available - indicating a lack of content.

"Delta Warp"

  • Not a bug, but when running in "NeoGeo Pocket" mode it has an elaborate command line simulation to tell you that it requires colour mode.
  • This simulation doesn't work, you just get a white screen.
  • Some large characters are corrupted.

"Dive Alert"

  • Corrupted graphics on the intro as the characters scroll past Evangelion style.
  • Glitches corrupt the intro scroll text.
  • The scroller overwrites the background, instead of being transparent.
  • The scroller doesn't scroll completely off the top of the screen.

"King of Fighters - Battle de Paradise"

  • After entering an 'exclamation mark', 'skull and crossbones' or 'star' square, the graphics above the status bar become corrupted (still playable though).
  • Top scanline flickers when doing the diagonal wipe at the start of the level.
  • Get a blank black screen & Status Bar incorrectly placed if you come across Mini Game No.17 - 'Eyes in the Dark' in Main Mode
    **Mini Game name taken from Christina Rose's walkthrough at "GameFAQs.com"

"Magical Drop Pocket"

  • Seems very difficult - is it supposed to be?
  • Sound will sometimes hang on the current note. Move the NeoPop window around to silence it.

"Memories Off Pure"

  • Incorrect black line on the title screen.

"Samurai Shodown 2"

  • Flickering line between background and bottom status bar caused by incorrect interrupt timing.

"Sonic Pocket Adventure"

  • Unstable sound code. Music or sound effects may not play and it may even freeze - keep resetting until it's fixed. I have noticed that NOT skipping the SEGA logo generally makes it more reliable.

"SNK vs Capcom Card Fighters Clash 2 Expand Edition"

  • Corrupt Graphics for Action and Re-Action Cards (corrupt from beginning of game)
    Note: When this was originally saved through save state, the logo graphics for the Re-Action Cards were corrupt.
    When I checked again to make sure, the Action Card graphics were corrupt instead.

"Super Real Mahjong"

  • First half of the opening sample is played at 1/2 speed due to simplified DAC emulation.
  • Game crashes (black screen) possible with many options.
