What you have are completely extracted files. If you open up the .cue file by right clicking on the .cue with Notepad+, you can see if the .cue file has multiple tracks listed. If it does, converting the mp3 to ogg could work. If it only shows Track01, these files will not work for audio unless you do a lot of editing.

The .cue file brings me this, I put the attachment. But is there a compatible rom set for this plugin? If yes with what search word can I find it on google. Thanks again.

Yes. What you have will not work for Neo CD Libretro Wii. However, what you have will work with NeoCDRX standalone emulator just released.

There are plenty links out there for what you want. You are looking for bin/cue. If you find CHD, the download size will be cut in half or more but you will need to extract the CHD to bin/cue. A very simple and quick process.

Yes I already tried NeoCDRX (very nice). But it doesn't have compatibility with the classic controller (only the analog stick works, the buttons don't work) and it doesn't start games automatically on wiiflow, too bad. Thanks for everything.

I installed this on my Wii console, but I can't seem to boot a game. After showing the NeoGeo CD logo, it always takes me to the CD player screen, where I can listen to the audio tracks on the cd.

I double and triple checked the BIOS files with the SHA1 check , they are in the right folder , also verified the game images, in fact I tried multiple versions, be it bin+cue or iso+wav+cue, from different regions, and the result is still the same. (btw these images work in other emulators).

The emulator and the games are on the SD card in the console, and I boot the emulator from the Homebrew Browser.

Is there a setting I'm missing or what could be the issue?

Not an issue.

If you're using Front/Top Loader BIOSes, the BIOS will always display the CD player menu after you load a game. After the CD Player Menu appears after loading a game, just press START (+ in Wii Classic Controller) for start the game.

If you're using CDZ BIOS, the BIOS will load and start the game automatically.

Oh I see. And how can I check which BIOS I'm using, since I have all those recommended in the OP, and there's Front, Top and CDZ among them?

The emulator settings allows you to select between use Top Loader, Front Loader or CDZ BIOSes.
I think it should be in "Core Settings".

Thanks for that info. Do you happen to know what settings to change in the emulator options to get a clear 240p image, or as close to it as possible? I tried to change the output resolution in the core options but no matter what I set, the image is blurry even with the bilinear filtering disabled, so I'm wondering if there's some other setting(s) that I need to change.

    @Xdqwerty HM...

    If the cat girl leaves, my kokoro dies a little.

    If I piss off the cat grill friend, I get no food and he's likely to grill me.

    There's just no winning here 😂

    @RedColoredStars, Never heard of it. Any good?
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    You control a kitten. You fall out the window and have to make your way back home. Solve some light puzzles, do cat things like knock stuff over and steal things, trip people up when theyre walking, pounce on birds, complete goals/tasks etc. in the process of getting back to your home.

  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    @SylverReZ It's short but adorable imo. Im a HUGE cat lover.Can be completed in a couple of hours if just going for the main goals. But can be stretched out a good deal by exploring and doing everything there is to do and see.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    So a man goes to the doctor because his boner wont go down. As he is laying in the hospital bed, with his thing propped up in the air, a fly is flying around and landing on the tip and bothering him, so he calls in the nurse. The nurse comes in, swats at the fly but can't quite reach it, so she climbs his boner to get better aim. After a few tries of swatting and sliding back down, she says sorry I cant get it. He says keep going, a few more tries, and I can shoot it down.
