Ooh! I did this recently! Couldn't get most of them to work, especially on Windows 10, but finally found Mednafen--it's command-line based and takes a little configuring with batch file setup or whatnot, but runs MotM perfectly, with full sound (even net play potentially, if I remember right), controller support (my PS4 arcade sticks work great), and beautiful pixel-perfect non-blurry graphics in full screen. Can't remember where I found it but Google should be helpful. The version I have is 0.9.38.7, updated September of last year. It's a multi-system emulator, the docs say the NGPC emulation is based off NeoPop--but they certainly have improved upon it or at least upgraded the audio/video support, among other things.

Posted by Paleface on May 12, 2016 at 19:14:35 EST in reply to Someone on Twitter asked about a Neo Geo Pocket emulator for Windows. I did a bit of searching to find what's new/best now. I came across this link that only lists RAPE? v0.1 and links to "Sector: NGPC" at dimension-s.com. So, anyone using any new(ish) NGP/C emulators that are good? from Flavor.

And I should add that Mednafen was the *only* one I found--and I tried RAPE and NeoPop and all the other old ones I came across first--that could run MotM with perfect sound and non-blurry full-screen graphics in Windows 10 (didn't find any others that could do that in WinXP, either--don't remember if I've tried Mednafen in XP, though).

I think this is where I got it--it looks like the official site, and Google seems to concur:

From what I've heard Mednafen is really amazing. It's command line though so there is no point in me even downloading it. I heard there is a Wii version with a front end and everything though that I've been too lazy to try. I need to hack that thing eventually. The VC games I downloaded for it clearly show how good its analog output is for emulation.

The single command line I use in my .bat file is just like "[path]mednafen.exe [rom filename]"--about as simple as it gets, if you have Windows! It has a pretty good in-emu menu system that makes and saves settings for things like full screen, controller mappings, and so forth, so you don't have to put a bunch of config options in the command line--you just do it once through the emulator's gui menus.
