The non-bloated Neo focused build made it much more appealing to me. Leaps and bounds better than all of the garbage that was included with the previous hack. I do think people still yearn for the ability to customize their stick though and maybe this is a good start to that.
Dude, you gave me a reason to finally open the box! I have been sitting on this, not very excited but I’m pumped to try this out! I think I was tainted by the underwhelming NEOGEO mini, Thanks for another great video!
The ASP corrects my three largest gripes of the Neo Mini; the controller (obviously), the ability to switch video filters, and the option to remap buttons. Toss in this Neo only hack and you have a pretty sweet setup if you’re not ready to go long on original hardware.
Been lurking on the NeoGeo subreddit and it's nice to see the project unfold. For you to give Hylo a go says a lot as one of your channel subscribers. Thanks for installing and sharing this with us bro!
@@ScarletSprites absolutely! That is why I am getting the stick soon! Heard they tried it to the NGM but as expected, no luck on improving HDMI out quality!
Yeah it’s really annoying that video filtering is enabled by default on the Mini. It almost needs an entirely new image which is probably significantly more difficult to put together than a hack to an existing one.
This, This is what I've been wanting/needing its also just much more convenient then busting out the Framemeister and switching out games. Thank you Scarlet and Chris(sp) for bringing this to the community!
It for sure is convenient. Everything at your fingertips. Just have to ensure everything runs properly. The few games I fooled with seemed fine, maybe a slight slowdown on PHI2 but I couldn’t rule out placebo.
Thanks man! Just got a fight stick pro. This is a great hack and great way to play some non fighting games. I’m still trying to order the buttons and stick from your other video from the fight stick, but that site is out of stock of everything. Live the channel, love the content. Thanks
I have the older hack with the 16bit emulators/games. Took a chance and installed the hylohack over top; it works fine, now on boot I have the original ASP, and both hacks to select from. Sweet.
Thank you for this. It’s really great and easy to install. I love having the cheats for the harder games, although it took a bit searching to find out how to access it. (A+B+C+Start)
Scarlet Sprites that’s literally the last place I thought I’d look....I searched TH-cam, game websites, Reddit. Thanks again for letting us know about this (and to the Hylo guys of course).
Without the new update that neocvera posted for the hylo hack you can get problems saving games. You should add the link to your description. It's really easy to change the background if you don't like the blue one. It's also possible to add FBA games.
The reason why Irritating Maze doesn’t work is because it was meant to be played with a trak-ball. There wasn’t an AES home port because, again, no Trak Ball controller was made (and no Atari 5200’s offering doesn’t work). And about Samurai Shodown V Perfect, why don’t they just call it “Samurai Shodown V Special: Final Edition” like what SNK initially promised back in ‘04?
Well right, we know it needs the trackball. The Unibios contains a cheat option that allows it to be played with a controller. It’s how I play my cart. The issue is that the rom only boots with one of the official bios files via this hack and not with the Unibios. It will run but then there is no way to control it. I’ve tried a few different versions of the rom and none of them run in tandem with the hack and UniBios.
I never heard of: Bang Busters, Bang Bead, Football Frenzy, Fight Fever, Flipshot, Ganryu, Voltage Fighter Gowcaizer, Ironclad Brikinger, Irritating Maze, Jockey Grand Prix, Pochi and Nyaa , Pop 'n Bounce, V Liner, Zintrick! The puzzle games I listed looks fun and I didn't hear about SS V Perfect until your video. Imma check that out as well.
It’s the kind of hack I think most Neo people wanted, no bloat. I’ll definitely fool with it some more and aside from easy access to some of the CD exclusives, it’s gives me a really easy way to capture footage for videos.
Awesome! I hope this hack sells a lot of the SNK sticks. I told myself I wouldn’t buy a Neo Geo Mini... but for $35, I couldn’t help myself. It will be a nice desk ornament.
I would agree that at $35 its certainly fine. I kind of thought we’d see the stick dip towards the $60 range but that doesn’t seem to be quite the case yet. Maybe closer to the holidays.
I’m trying to install the hack but it’s telling me this “this file does not have an app associated with it for performing this action. Please install an app or, if one is already installed, create an association in the default apps settings page”. What does that mean?? What app is it taking about??
My Arcade Stick doesn't recognyze any USB drive. I try with a lot of drives, different brands and capacity. Always FAT32 formatted. Nothing. The USB icon is not present in the right bottom of the screen.
I have no idea what went wrong, but I only have the 40 pre-installed games after the hack. I have the blue Hylo surface after the Hylo hack & boot, but there are only the 40 games in the list that are already on the device before the hack.
This might be a bass-ackwards idea, but I’m thinking about dismantling my ASP and putting the guts into a cabinet built from the ground up as a custom MVS-esque cab. It would be great if I didn’t have to buy another ASP to add 2P controls, but the question is, could the link cable provided be adapted to hook directly to the 2P joystick and buttons. Things that make you go, “hmmm 🤔” Any idea if the Hylo hack is compatible with 2P function
I've tried extracting the file on 3 different flash drives, I get the little thumbstick symbol on the bottom of the screen but nothing comes up??? I also can't use my ASP on the Switch??? Works great on the Ps4 though, I hope my stick isn't messed up
I have loaded hylo and appears to work but when I select a game it gos to a black screen for a second and back to home screen. I have factory reset, reformatted my usb (fat32) and reloaded but keep getting the same issue. I havent edited any files yet, or even changed the bios. Any ideas??
Honestly the only one you really need is the fourth, the Unibios. I think it defaults to the Euro/Arcade setting but it can be changed to any other region (US, Japan, Euro) and you can flip between AES (console) or MVS (Arcade) modes with it as well. There are some notes on using the bios in the help section within the hack that may be helpful.
I upgraded, it installed the update, it restarted, it even gave me the choice to choose neo geo asp or hylo stick. I chose hylostick and got a black screen. Not sure why that is???
There are a lot of reports of that. Make sure the stick is FAT32 formatted, make sure you have a decent power supply, and then make sure you’re not in PC Mode.
This looks really interesting to do Scarlet. But what really is the real eye catcher is that you're styling and profiling with your Neo-Geo apparel. Looking sharp bro. 8^) Also Scarlet, i post this up on the Neo-Geo thread on Atariage.com for you. It's on post #22,967 for you to view. Thank you as always my man. Keep up the great work you always offer to the community. 8^) Anthony..
Hi mate happy Christmas got one of these today I have seen a newer update with capcom games etc is this a better one to add or the one you have in this video 👍🏻
I’ve unfortunately not kept up with the hacks after this one. I have seen pics/video of the Capcom one. I would say just start with the one that interests you the most. Checkout neocvera on TH-cam, he is one of the guys who works on these.
Did you get the irritating maze to work with the controller? That's the only one as far as I know that doesn't work correctly. Fixed the missing Neo Bomberman Rom, very simple to do.
I did this and the front end all seems to work, but whenever I select a game the screen just turns black for a second and then goes back to the menu. Any ideas? I followed the steps in this video along with the other one you made after this. Thanks
This looks pretty good for those that own the stick. I'm going to assume that in order to use this thing, you need to have a super long HDMI cable + USB cable plugged in at all times?
I haven’t played either on this but I’d expect there to be some amount of lag given that this is FBA emulation, especially if you’re used to original hardware.
Yes, I have the original disc and Naomi loaded in the Blast City. Normally I just netboot it to the Naomi 2 though. I picked up the original marquee a few years ago.
Great video. Im ordering one today. I wish I could buy the same device in a smaller controller size like the ones for the mini. But this will do. Thanks.
Not aware of any list like that, but I also have t kept up with things the past few days. As far as I knew all games were working with the exception of Irritating Maze which still loads, but can’t be controlled without the Unibios controller hack applied.
I have a MAC too and I got the files to download and everything is fine. But when I put the USB into the ASP, it can't find the files. I have no idea what to do. If you find anything out, please let me know. Thanks.
What a nice hack. It really brings out the controller game system's full potential. Just curious, are there video options to replace the black borders with neo geo frames artwork?
@@ScarletSprites Hi Scarlet, thanks for the reply! Checked on my neogeo asp and doesn't look like there is any artwork for the borders. Oh well.. still, I'm fine with that. Maybe there'll be a hack for the borders one day.
Hi guys just a quick question Is there a way to save individual game softdip settings after having modified them (B+C+D at unibios logo)? By the way, great hack for ASP owners!!!
You might be able to cheat this by using loading the settings you want and then doing a save state for each game. Unfortunately, I don't know of another way at this time.
@@ScarletSprites thanks for the tip I will give it a go hopefully the feature gets implemented in a future update thanks a lot for the answer by the way, excellent work on your channel keep it up!
@@ScarletSprites sad 😢.they are expensive,I just can play at some who were available on dreamcast so reicast retroarch. I was a big collector of aes mvs jamma..but now..emulation is fine..and better with friends..you can change games on arcade cabinet easily..not like jamma..jvs..naomi..
The download file is continuously unavailable now. Can you create some alternative download places? I ordered the ASP after seeing your video, really a big thanks for that. Really want the Halo Hack though...
I unfortunately cannot keep up with it either, it’s not my link. There have been some posts below with other links and I believe asking in the reddit feed will give you some additional results.
This looks really cool and thanks for the tutorial. I have a few questions. Can you revert back to original stock games? Will it just not boot without a drive installed? Do you need to unlock the standard 40 games first or are they included in hylo? Is this EVERY game or are there many missing and what titles if so?
1. Yes 2. Hack/Games are stored on USB, so if you take it out you won’t be able to load them. 3. No 4. Missing the Mahjong and Quiz games but you can add them if you really want to.
@@ScarletSprites haha yeah that's pretty awesome man. I'm really into the NeoGeo CD so seeing it ported on the Arcade Stick Pro was shocking. I guess it's worth investing in one now. Love the CD quality sound
Does this hack in any way affect your ability to plug in and use this stick on the Nintendo Switch? That was kinda my reason for buying it originally, the Mini console aspect was kind of a bonus.
That I don’t know. I’m assuming you are wanting to use or keep the one from several months ago? You could try it and do a factory reset if it doesn’t work out.
I just ordered the new ball top and buttons you have and linked from your other video. Do you still recommend them and like them? The stick has been out of stock for a while now. Was about $38 for 8 new buttons and ball top with priority shipping.
Yeah, I’m a fan of the Seimitsu stuff. Sanwa certainly is no slouch either but if given the choice I prefer the Seimitsu. I think you’ll like the updated parts.
I wonder if with HyloStick all those games can be played with two players? And if you can, are you limited to those Neo Geo Mini Controllers for the second player? You can‘t attach a second ASP as the USB A Port is used for the Hylo Stick. Or is it possible to connect a second ASP to one of the ports on the front using the adapter provided to connect it to the mini? Has anybody tried yet?
so i'm getting quite a bit of slowdown on all of the games. when i play the stock mode the frame rate seems higher and there's no slowdown. is this normal?
@@ScarletSprites thank you man, it actually worked! Except for a couple games there's no slowdown. (pulstar is a mess especially when you die it hesitates for a second then the ship blows up haha) but most other games are completely improved now with a different drive. Thanks again!
I happy to report I got the hack running on the ASP, I also got it running on my Switch by enabling the pro controller through usb, now all I want is someone to dump the Razion rom and I'll be a happy camper, I'm almost ready to pop on the AES cart!
That’s awesome. Yeah none of the NG Dev games outside of Last Hop have been dumped. At this point I hope once they feel they’ve done what they can with Neo they release everything digitally. The Gunlord makeover for Switch seems to have done pretty well.
I've got the Hylostick v1.1 hack and it drives me crazy how many of the Arcade games do not run properly at all, super slow and badly stuttering sound, basically unplayable, especially the 'Brawler' section. Such a pity as all the Neo Geo games play fine. Does anyone know if v1.2 improves the arcade titles in any way?
Does Riding Hero work correctly on here? On many emulators I've tried it on (particularly on RPI and Android), the graphics for the track are missing. It would be nice to be able to have the hack installed onto the controller itself instead of having to use a thumbdrive. There's about 5gb free on the internal storage, even after doing the unlock for the other 20 games.
You’ll have to forgive me, but does it matter if it doesn’t? Of all the titles on the Neo, Riding Hero has got to be in the bottom five running for worst games in the library. That said, I’ll check it out because from an emulation standpoint it makes me curious.
@@ScarletSprites Honestly, I haven't played the game in years so I can't remember how bad it was. The main reason I've been trying to play it again is back in the 90s, a friend of mine and I used to take turns playing the story mode on an MVS machine in our local bowling alley. He's passed away since then, so I've been wanting to play this again for nostalgia and memories.
hey everyone, got a question for the hstickpro: in the ng unibios softdip menu, i can change everything like on my mvs. also difficulty to level 1. in the game it shows me still level 4. all the other options work. when i restart the bios/game it looses all settings. any idea? thanks for any tip.
ok :) found the solution thanks to this and other videos... 1. start a NG game with the UNIBIOS. 2. push START + SELECT. 3. exit the menu -soft reboot system. 4. after that push B+C+D to enter the BIOS 5. enter the SOFT DIP settings. hope this helps someone.
No, the best I can say is to try the reddit feed. It’s been impossible for me to keep track of when the link exhausts. It does reset each day but knowing how much traffic it gets is unbeknownst to me and it isn’t my link.
@@ScarletSprites hi, everything ok, i was able to download this hack, everything is flashing as it should be, a great set of games. Regards, you have a great neo geo channel.
I fiddled with it for about 2 minutes before waiting for a better description (last night) and this actually looks pretty easy! What do you suppose is the possibility of Neo Turf Masters CD on this guy?
I’m not an emulation expert, but I’m pretty certain FBA/Neo can run Neo Geo CD isos and cue/bin files. I don’t pretend to understand how this is running under the hood but I would assume that it’s fully capable of running CD games.
I seem to be having issues regarding the brawler section of games. Some of them don't seem to be playing well (lots of stuttering in the sound and lag). I formatted the disc correctly etc. Does anyone else have this issue?
Mine are Seimitsus. I have a separate video just on swapping out the buttons and stick actually. I think the parts are linked in the description of that video.
@@ScarletSprites Arcade is a bit hard set a level 4, i press A,B,C change to console so i can play on easy, need to practice these NEO GEO games so i can play at a higher level, but easy is okay i like fun with games not pulling hair out to get to next level.
This was awesome. I did everything you did including the tweaks from the other video, but when I select a game, the screen goes black for a second, then goes back to the menu screen. Any suggestions? Thanks for this! Now to see if I can connect my NGX arcade stick as a secondary controller 🤔🤷🏾♂️🤣
Pull the usb, boot to stock, do a factory reset, then try it again. A few people have posted this and it’s been varying reasons as to why this happen. A subpar power supply also seems to be a culprit in some cases.
I went back to the original BIOS and voila! Thanks again, Broham! This is the perfect way to pass these next few hours of collecting holiday pay and OT
This looks like a great hack. And it's so simple, much like myself.
Must be a Joe thing. I value convenience more and more each passing year.
Thank you for covering this!! this makes all the hard work our team put in to this all the more worth it!
I think the community was really yearning for a clean Neo only image to use. Thanks for delivering on that.
Billy...i definitely appreciate it! Any chance of getting a proper Capcom Home Arcade hack???
Thank you!
Awesome was waiting to see if you were going to cover this. The entire team behind it is awesome. Responsive and building it just for people to enjoy.
The non-bloated Neo focused build made it much more appealing to me. Leaps and bounds better than all of the garbage that was included with the previous hack. I do think people still yearn for the ability to customize their stick though and maybe this is a good start to that.

Glad you’ve found it helpful, thanks for watching man!
The file is available again in case anyone was unable to access it earlier. Going to go give it a shot, thanks again to the community and this page
I have the older hack with the 16bit emulators/games. Took a chance and installed the hylohack over top; it works fine, now on boot I have the original ASP, and both hacks to select from. Sweet.
A few people had asked about that and I didn’t try having all three. Thanks for confirming.
Works perfectly, thanks for the walk- through and link.
Glad it was helpful!
This is what I was waiting for. NICE
Right!? Neo bliss without the bloat.
This answered all of my questions. Thank you!!!!
Glad it helped!
@@ScarletSprites I plan on buying one soon and with a lot of googling I found the latest version so once I got it I will be all set
Thank you for this. It’s really great and easy to install. I love having the cheats for the harder games, although it took a bit searching to find out how to access it. (A+B+C+Start)
You can also see the “how to” from within the menu on the notes icon at the bottom. It behaves the same way as the normal unibios.
Scarlet Sprites that’s literally the last place I thought I’d look....I searched TH-cam, game websites, Reddit. Thanks again for letting us know about this (and to the Hylo guys of course).

Oh..a raspberry..or a android box with neo.emu..a nice big arcade stick Hori or Madcatz..it's great.
Hey thanks for the info! I was able to do the hack and having all these games is a dream!
Nice man! Makes the stick all the better.
Awesome! I hope this hack sells a lot of the SNK sticks. I told myself I wouldn’t buy a Neo Geo Mini... but for $35, I couldn’t help myself. It will be a nice desk ornament.
I would agree that at $35 its certainly fine. I kind of thought we’d see the stick dip towards the $60 range but that doesn’t seem to be quite the case yet. Maybe closer to the holidays.
The Neo stick that keeps on giving!
A full Neo lineup at your fingertips all installed on a halfway decent stick. It’s pretty good!
Scarlet Sprites a stick that can also be easily upgraded. I put and 8 gate joystick in mine. Will probably upgrade the buttons as well.
twinkle star sprites, waku waku 7 and windjammers? i think i need to pull the trigger on this puppy
Pretty much every Neo game. Tough to go wrong for a decent stick and all those games, plus you can use it on Switch and PS4.
My stick is being delivered today! 👍🏼
Where did you get the fatal fury hat bro???😭
Fangamer.com sells them, check them out.
This make me want to own a stick pro, but I'm saving for a MiSTer 😊 Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this new mod, fun video to watch 😁
Thanks man, enjoy that MiSTer. I’ve been tempted many times.
Kinda regretting not picking up the ASP when it dropped to $99 on Amazon a month or so ago after seeing this hack in action.
That won’t be the last time it drops, or the furthest. Sit tight and I’m sure you’ll catch another deal.
Literally just went on sale for $99 on amazon. i scooped it up instantly.
I’m trying to install the hack but it’s telling me this “this file does not have an app associated with it for performing this action. Please install an app or, if one is already installed, create an association in the default apps settings page”. What does that mean?? What app is it taking about??
Thanks for letting us know about this!
This is what I’m here for.
My Arcade Stick doesn't recognyze any USB drive. I try with a lot of drives, different brands and capacity. Always FAT32 formatted. Nothing. The USB icon is not present in the right bottom of the screen.
so glad i scooped this
It’s instantly better now.
3:47 how did you even access the region menu?!
Hold down ABC at boot. Directions are in the info section of the hack and explain how to call the Unibios.
@@ScarletSprites thank you!! :DD
Just subscribed to this channel! Good stuff!
Thanks man, welcome to the channel!
I have no idea what went wrong, but I only have the 40 pre-installed games after the hack. I have the blue Hylo surface after the Hylo hack & boot, but there are only the 40 games in the list that are already on the device before the hack.
Ok, after the reset it works fine. :-)
Hah, good. If it gets messed up you're best to pull the USB, factory reset, and then try again.
This might be a bass-ackwards idea, but I’m thinking about dismantling my ASP and putting the guts into a cabinet built from the ground up as a custom MVS-esque cab.

I already factory reset it, I'm going to get a Samsung thumbstick and see if that works
I was having the same problem - turned out my USB drive was missing the update.img file. Oops!
Where do I get that file? What do I do after I get it?
I have loaded hylo and appears to work but when I select a game it gos to a black screen for a second and back to home screen. I have factory reset, reformatted my usb (fat32) and reloaded but keep getting the same issue. I havent edited any files yet, or even changed the bios. Any ideas??
Never mind im an idiot, had mode selector on pc. Works great.
I’m glad you mentioned this. A lot of people keep posting this issue and I don’t think anyone shared their answer.
Can you give a brief rundown on all the different bios please.
Honestly the only one you really need is the fourth, the Unibios. I think it defaults to the Euro/Arcade setting but it can be changed to any other region (US, Japan, Euro) and you can flip between AES (console) or MVS (Arcade) modes with it as well. There are some notes on using the bios in the help section within the hack that may be helpful.
I upgraded, it installed the update, it restarted, it even gave me the choice to choose neo geo asp or hylo stick. I chose hylostick and got a black screen. Not sure why that is???
There are a lot of reports of that. Make sure the stick is FAT32 formatted, make sure you have a decent power supply, and then make sure you’re not in PC Mode.
Scarlet Sprites thank you so much. I’m surprised that you’re responding. That’s pretty cool. What if I have a Mac? My options are exfat not fat32?
Can’t help you there unfortunately. I don’t have a Mac. The stick must be FAT32 formatted though.

Scarlet Sprites thank you, I will try that!
mysterychimp007 maybe is the bio file problem. Make sure you rename the bio probably if u are doing the bio save states update !
Does not work, my screen goes to black when I put the files on my stick.
This looks pretty good for those that own the stick. I'm going to assume that in order to use this thing, you need to have a super long HDMI cable + USB cable plugged in at all times?
My ASP came with a decent USB for power and I have a 6ft HDMI cable from an old projector I used to have. Short answer is yes, lol.
Yeah when I got mine I invested in a 10 ft USB-A to USB-C and Hdmi cables for it
How's the input lag? Specifically for Rage of Dragons and Power Instinct Matrimelee.
I haven’t played either on this but I’d expect there to be some amount of lag given that this is FBA emulation, especially if you’re used to original hardware.
What am I doing wrong? Everytime it counts down and resets I get a black screen and nothing. Is it because I need to format the drive to fat32?
I mentioned that in the video, you should be using FAT32. It won’t work otherwise.
@@ScarletSprites Thank you! 😊
You always need the usb stick plugged in the console or it's installed in the memory console?
The stick is the console, it’s all embedded inside.

Yes, I have the original disc and Naomi loaded in the Blast City. Normally I just netboot it to the Naomi 2 though. I picked up the original marquee a few years ago.
Scarlet Sprites keep it. Whatever you do. Keep it. Guys like me would pay top dollar for that setup!
Great video. Im ordering one today. I wish I could buy the same device in a smaller controller size like the ones for the mini. But this will do. Thanks.
Can use this as controller for the mini and can use the gamepads with this if I remember correctly
Is there any kind of list as to which games work best with the internal emu vs FBA? Also, is there a list of not working games?
Not aware of any list like that, but I also have t kept up with things the past few days. As far as I knew all games were working with the exception of Irritating Maze which still loads, but can’t be controlled without the Unibios controller hack applied.
I assume this will not work on the Mini?
Not yet, but that’s coming next.
Downloaded and extracted to USB. Inserted USB to NEO GEO Stick, but when used system > Upgrade , it couldn't find it. What did i do wrong?
Drive is FAT32 formatted right?
@@ScarletSprites I cleared the memory and didn't format it. So i'll format it and retry. Thanks for the quick response. I'll let you know if it works
@@ScarletSprites I formatted and transferred the ASPh folder back onto the formatted drive but still the same problem.
I have a MAC and when I download from google drive, the file is downloaded as a PDF that cannot be opened. Any suggestion on how to fix this?
No Mac here so unfortunately I can't assist. Maybe try the reddit thread?
I have a MAC too and I got the files to download and everything is fine. But when I put the USB into the ASP, it can't find the files. I have no idea what to do. If you find anything out, please let me know. Thanks.
What a nice hack. It really brings out the controller game system's full potential.
Just curious, are there video options to replace the black borders with neo geo frames artwork?
I have to be honest with you, I can’t recall. It’s been way too long since I fooled with that. I know what you mean though.
@@ScarletSprites Hi Scarlet, thanks for the reply! Checked on my neogeo asp and doesn't look like there is any artwork for the borders. Oh well.. still, I'm fine with that. Maybe there'll be a hack for the borders one day.
I didn't see Neo Turf Masters in the list of games?
Ah, it’s listed as “Turfmast.zip” so it displays right after Top Player’s golf. You can see it at 3:10
@@ScarletSprites Thanks so much, now I see it!
Hi guys just a quick question Is there a way to save individual game softdip settings after having modified them (B+C+D at unibios logo)?
By the way, great hack for ASP owners!!!
You might be able to cheat this by using loading the settings you want and then doing a save state for each game. Unfortunately, I don't know of another way at this time.
@@ScarletSprites thanks for the tip I will give it a go hopefully the feature gets implemented in a future update thanks a lot for the answer by the way, excellent work on your channel keep it up!
It s possible now to play Kraut busters..Razion..and others new aes games ?
No, none of those games have been dumped. The only NG Dev game available is Last Hope.
@@ScarletSprites sad 😢.they are expensive,I just can play at some who were available on dreamcast so reicast retroarch.
I was a big collector of aes mvs jamma..but now..emulation is fine..and better with friends..you can change games on arcade cabinet easily..not like jamma..jvs..naomi..
The download file is continuously unavailable now. Can you create some alternative download places? I ordered the ASP after seeing your video, really a big thanks for that. Really want the Halo Hack though...
I unfortunately cannot keep up with it either, it’s not my link. There have been some posts below with other links and I believe asking in the reddit feed will give you some additional results.
Does it feature the slowdown fixed Metal Slug 2?
It sure does. I just played through the first two levels.
@@ScarletSprites Fantastic news. I'll try it out then. While nothing will replace my AES, I can't really go for a full set with my funds ;-)
Ugh, I guess I want one now. How many avenues can I possible play Kof 97 on now?
Don’t stop until you have every last one of them. Seriously though, I know exactly where you are coming from.
If you do a factory reset is you ASP back to stock? Or are you not able to remove the hack?
Yes, you can remove the stick and boot to the stock application and do a factory reset to remove it.
Thanks for you reply, going to try the hack now
i'm trying to download the programs from a laptop but it doesnt show on my usb stick
This looks really cool and thanks for the tutorial.
I have a few questions. Can you revert back to original stock games? Will it just not boot without a drive installed?
Do you need to unlock the standard 40 games first or are they included in hylo?
Is this EVERY game or are there many missing and what titles if so?
1. Yes
2. Hack/Games are stored on USB, so if you take it out you won’t be able to load them.
3. No
4. Missing the Mahjong and Quiz games but you can add them if you really want to.
@@ScarletSprites cheers buddy really helpful appreciate it 👍🍻
Will pass on the mahjong and quiz games I think. Not really my thing lol
This is amazing. Esp your shirt and hat & Crossed Swords II lol
Mostly the Crossed Swords II & SSV Perfect though. Lol.
@@ScarletSprites haha yeah that's pretty awesome man. I'm really into the NeoGeo CD so seeing it ported on the Arcade Stick Pro was shocking. I guess it's worth investing in one now. Love the CD quality sound
Hey! I noticed you changed the colored button configuration to top row only lol :)
I go back and forth as to what I like better 🤷🏼♂️
@@ScarletSprites Nice man, thanks for the content!
Well done will load soon
Yeah these guys did a nice job with this, enjoy it!
Does this hack in any way affect your ability to plug in and use this stick on the Nintendo Switch? That was kinda my reason for buying it originally, the Mini console aspect was kind of a bonus.
No, you should be good to go.
Can more than one hacked BIOS be in the system? Selectable depending on what USB stick is used
That I don’t know. I’m assuming you are wanting to use or keep the one from several months ago? You could try it and do a factory reset if it doesn’t work out.
Now this hack makes this stick a must buy.
It's pretty slick. I think this is what most people wanted, something clean and not overly bloated with garbage they have no interest in.
Looking for a small footprint usb stick if available. Something of like a laptop wireless mouse usb receiver.
I just ordered the new ball top and buttons you have and linked from your other video. Do you still recommend them and like them? The stick has been out of stock for a while now. Was about $38 for 8 new buttons and ball top with priority shipping.
Yeah, I’m a fan of the Seimitsu stuff. Sanwa certainly is no slouch either but if given the choice I prefer the Seimitsu. I think you’ll like the updated parts.
Does the Hylo Stick have a 2nd Controller hack like an Xbox controller?
I wonder if with HyloStick all those games can be played with two players? And if you can, are you limited to those Neo Geo Mini Controllers for the second player? You can‘t attach a second ASP as the USB A Port is used for the Hylo Stick. Or is it possible to connect a second ASP to one of the ports on the front using the adapter provided to connect it to the mini? Has anybody tried yet?
Awesome - thank you! Is there another file mirror? Primary has reached d/l limit.
I don’t currently have an updated one. I’ll change the link if I see others pop up or you can try the reddit feed.
@@ScarletSprites - thanks! I was able to get through.
so i'm getting quite a bit of slowdown on all of the games. when i play the stock mode the frame rate seems higher and there's no slowdown. is this normal?
No, that isn’t normal. I’d try a different drive if you have one.
@@ScarletSprites ok thx brother - love the channel
Good luck!
@@ScarletSprites thank you man, it actually worked! Except for a couple games there's no slowdown. (pulstar is a mess especially when you die it hesitates for a second then the ship blows up haha) but most other games are completely improved now with a different drive. Thanks again!
Regarding Pulstar, that’s how the genuine cart behaves on real hardware. So that actually is completely normal.
The problem with this is the lack of screen filters, that’s a deal breaker
Not working for me, after the update I get a blank screen....
Pull the USB, perform a factory reset from stock, then try again.
@@ScarletSprites Actually it was my fault, I didnt format in FAT32. It works preaty well. Thanks!
Awesome!
I happy to report I got the hack running on the ASP, I also got it running on my Switch by enabling the pro controller through usb, now all I want is someone to dump the Razion rom and I'll be a happy camper, I'm almost ready to pop on the AES cart!
That’s awesome. Yeah none of the NG Dev games outside of Last Hop have been dumped. At this point I hope once they feel they’ve done what they can with Neo they release everything digitally. The Gunlord makeover for Switch seems to have done pretty well.
Couldn't DL. Says too many DL have occurred and quota has been met.
Yeah, looks like it’s been hit pretty hard tonite. Hopefully more links coming.
I've got the Hylostick v1.1 hack and it drives me crazy how many of the Arcade games do not run properly at all, super slow and badly stuttering sound, basically unplayable, especially the 'Brawler' section. Such a pity as all the Neo Geo games play fine. Does anyone know if v1.2 improves the arcade titles in any way?
hi, is there any way to return the console to its original state? I am left with the initial schematic with the snk logo and I cannot remove it, thx
Does Riding Hero work correctly on here? On many emulators I've tried it on (particularly on RPI and Android), the graphics for the track are missing. It would be nice to be able to have the hack installed onto the controller itself instead of having to use a thumbdrive. There's about 5gb free on the internal storage, even after doing the unlock for the other 20 games.
You’ll have to forgive me, but does it matter if it doesn’t? Of all the titles on the Neo, Riding Hero has got to be in the bottom five running for worst games in the library. That said, I’ll check it out because from an emulation standpoint it makes me curious.
@@ScarletSprites Honestly, I haven't played the game in years so I can't remember how bad it was. The main reason I've been trying to play it again is back in the 90s, a friend of mine and I used to take turns playing the story mode on an MVS machine in our local bowling alley. He's passed away since then, so I've been wanting to play this again for nostalgia and memories.
Well that certainly makes sense to me. Nostalgia is a powerful thing.
Thanks, this is great.
Sure thing, thanks for stopping by!
Thanks for the video. Do you have to pay for this hack ? I’ve never done a hack before .
Nope, definitely don’t pay for it. It’s free to download. If the links are broken try hitting the reddit feed for additional ones.
Hi does it still work and you got the link for the hack
Will this hack effect another hack I have done already or just be another option to pick from
this video made me purchase one
hey everyone, got a question for the hstickpro: in the ng unibios softdip menu, i can change everything like on my mvs. also difficulty to level 1. in the game it shows me still level 4. all the other options work. when i restart the bios/game it looses all settings. any idea? thanks for any tip.
ok :) found the solution thanks to this and other videos... 1. start a NG game with the UNIBIOS. 2. push START + SELECT. 3. exit the menu -soft reboot system. 4. after that push B+C+D to enter the BIOS 5. enter the SOFT DIP settings. hope this helps someone.
Hello, can you provide a link to download this hacka, because the one given does not work
No, the best I can say is to try the reddit feed. It’s been impossible for me to keep track of when the link exhausts. It does reset each day but knowing how much traffic it gets is unbeknownst to me and it isn’t my link.
@@ScarletSprites OK thanks for the information
Yeah sorry, it’s just been all over the place the last two days since the video went up. I’d ask the Reddit guys.
@@ScarletSprites hi, everything ok, i was able to download this hack, everything is flashing as it should be, a great set of games. Regards, you have a great neo geo channel.
hi put the asr directory and the upgrade.img in the root. of course formated in fat32. Got "no upgrade device connected" how to solve this ? THx a lot
I fiddled with it for about 2 minutes before waiting for a better description (last night) and this actually looks pretty easy! What do you suppose is the possibility of Neo Turf Masters CD on this guy?
I’m not an emulation expert, but I’m pretty certain FBA/Neo can run Neo Geo CD isos and cue/bin files. I don’t pretend to understand how this is running under the hood but I would assume that it’s fully capable of running CD games.
what’s the difference between mvs and version? Just music? Now I need to hunt down an real copy of the neo cd!!
I seem to be having issues regarding the brawler section of games. Some of them don't seem to be playing well (lots of stuttering in the sound and lag). I formatted the disc correctly etc. Does anyone else have this issue?
Is irritating stick broken cause it wants a trackball
Yes, it load just fine but it’s defaulting to a bios other than the Uni
Great... now you’re going to make me buy this. 😭
It’s not a bad way to go at this point. I’d still recommend it over the Mini but it’s obviously pricier.
I saw it on sale for a 100 dollars on Amazon
Which buttons are you using. I bought clear sanwas but the yellow looks more green than yellow.
Mine are Seimitsus. I have a separate video just on swapping out the buttons and stick actually. I think the parts are linked in the description of that video.
Scarlet Sprites perfect I’ve swapped the stick and buttons. I’ll check your video out though ;)
Top class i just put it in, cheat menu is magic, cheers.
Awesome, glad you got it running!
@@ScarletSprites Arcade is a bit hard set a level 4, i press A,B,C change to console so i can play on easy, need to practice these NEO GEO games so i can play at a higher level, but easy is okay i like fun with games not pulling hair out to get to next level.
Hi! For the update, can i delete the other biosme or i keep it?
Delete it.
Thank you!
Just got my ASP yesterday and was disappointed with it only having the AES versions. Snagging this hack as soon as I find my dumb ass thumb drive.
This was awesome. I did everything you did including the tweaks from the other video, but when I select a game, the screen goes black for a second, then goes back to the menu screen. Any suggestions? Thanks for this! Now to see if I can connect my NGX arcade stick as a secondary controller 🤔🤷🏾♂️🤣
Pull the usb, boot to stock, do a factory reset, then try it again. A few people have posted this and it’s been varying reasons as to why this happen. A subpar power supply also seems to be a culprit in some cases.
I went back to the original BIOS and voila! Thanks again, Broham! This is the perfect way to pass these next few hours of collecting holiday pay and OT
