Sorry, not got an answer for you, and Not to put a downer on this at all, as i have not really researched it,

But, were any games released for this system that did'nt come out for the normal neo geo? Because if not, there seems to be no point to this.

However, if its purely for OCD Completism, Im fine with that!

There are three to my knowledge (games released on cd that aren't on cart).  Two are demos one is a trivia game and all three are in Japanese. 

to answer your question nearly all stand-alone (read NOT mame) neogeo emulators support cds to one degree or another, but as I've shown, there isn't any real point to it.

The best Neo Geo CD emulator is NeoRaine.

And yes, there ARE reasons to play the CD versions (for a few of the games anyway). The best reason is to play the insanely hard hidden course "Scotland" in Neo Turf Masters.

For more reasons see http://www.neo-geo.com/forums/showthread.php?p=2947027. (http://www.neo-geo.com/forums/showthread.php?p=2947027.)

My vote goes to Nebula 2.25b. I have about 6 Neo Geo CDs in my collection, and Nebula is able to play all of them perfectly. Plus it's very easy to configure. Try it out:

I didn't know Nebula would do CD's, I'll definitely check it out. Thanks for the tip. :)

I've been using WinKawaks and it works fine for me (for NG ROMs, not CD's).
