The Neo Geo console was released by the Japanese manufactures, SNK, in 1990. This arcade based console featured a 16/32-bit 68000 CPU with an additional 8-bit Z80 CPU and custom 24-bit GPU chipset, which was considerably powerful for a home system at the time. The console was originally released in arcade board form as the Neo Geo Multi Video System (MVS)

The advanced graphical capabilities of the Neo Geo came from the use of custom GPU graphics processors, both of which were within the system and also as additional chips on individual game cartridges. Other features of the Neo Geo were its seven specialized processors, including the two CPU processors and several graphics chips, quick access to larger ROM data directly from cartridges at pretty high speeds, and then later on removable memory cards on the Advanced Entertainment System (AES) home platform, to save data when it was upgraded to; making first console to have such a feature at the time. These features gave the Neo Geo a lot of popularity and made it the most powerful home gaming system at the time of its release, its only competitor at the time was the Sharp X68000 home computer.

The cartridge and the removable memory card which the Neo Geo system used housed some really great games. The memory cards were used primarily to continue from where you left off in an arcade game and they had cross-compatibility, allowing you to start a game at home and then continue it in the arcade and vice versa.

Overtime as the Neo Geo was no longer manufactured and the cartridges and memory cards serving no use without the console, new file formats for saving these great iconic games that are synonymous with Neo Geo emerged. And one of such file formats that replicated the cartridge and memory cards of the Neo Geo console games is the ROM, these Read Only Memory files more popularly known as ROM(s) are files that house a copy of your games ripped from the original game cartridge or saved from an online download. This means that anyone can easily and conveniently get to download Neo Geo ROMs and play them without having a Neo Geo console.
