pFBN (formerly pFBA) is a port of Final Burn Neo, an arcade and console emulator for the Nintendo Switch. It can run arcade roms (NeoGeo, cps1, cps2, cps3...) and console roms (MegaDrive, Master System, Game Gear, PC Engine...). The main goals of this [https://github.com/finalburnneo/FBNeo FBNeo] port are: *Have a basic but user friendly user interface on non windows devices. *Use a recent rendering interface for speed and effect support. *Cross-platform and code portability. *Easy updates of fba core (no modifications to the original sources). *Use arm asm m68k ([https://github.com/notaz/cyclone68000 cyclone]) core on arm devices. This was submitted to the GBAtemp Switch Homebrew Bounty 2018 (Emulators). ==Installation== To install, place the .nro to the /switch/pgbn/ folder on the SD card. Roms go into the /switch/pgbn/roms/ folder on the SD card. To use the Neo Geo [http://unibios.free.fr/download.html UniBIOS]: * Rename uni-bios.rom to asia-s3.rom, then overwrite and replace to your neogeo.zip. * The neogeo.zip should be placed in the roms folder. ==User guide== pFBN current DATs files are located [https://github.com/libretro/FBNeo/tree/e8694e1806d56061554b7a80f3601caeb085dedc/dats here]. pFBN, as fbneo, support consoles roms.
