Retro Dev Blog Update 4 (June 2026)

Mini update on Final Vendetta Neo Geo:

Excellent progress over the last couple of weeks, lots of testing and fixing to make sure the original BIOS behaviours are correct. Neo Geo has a number of model variants and a wide range of hard dip, softdip, coin chute and compulsion behaviour patterns that have to be checked. We also updated our development system to integrate Neo Geo emulation directly into our codebase, which has sped up testing, fixes and development turnaround. This will also make it a lot easier for future Neo Geo title development!

A full stock take was completed on all the parts ahead of assembly. We’re fortunate enough in our company group to have access to a full assembly production line and in-house pick and pack distribution. Whilst the testing process marches on, we are gearing up to do a dry run of the final assembly so we are all ready for the main run.

Thanks again for all your support!
