Great emulator + nice GUI:
Neo Geo emulation on Unix made easy!
Introduction
XGngeo is a full-featured frontend frontend (GUI) written in Python and that uses the PyGTK library to provides toward end users a practical and user-friendly GTK2 interface over Gngeo which is a fast and powerful command line Neo Geo emulator for the GNU/Linux and FreeBSD systems (and may be some other Unices). Both are free/libre software released under the GNU GPL license.
With XGngeo multiple configuration panels, designed in an intuitive way, emulator behaviour can be regulated precisely and easily in the same time (and specificaly for each ROM if desired!); while ROM selection is made simple thanks to a complete list with preview image and various game information, etc.
Multilingual
Current version of XGngeo is translated in the following languages: Brazilian, English, French, German, Polish and Spanish.
