BIOS Selector
The emulator allows you to select the appropriate BIOS via RetroArch RGUI Options -> Region. The default region is USA. You can also select Japan and Europe which is actually the Export BIOS.
RetroArch allows you to save per ROM setting by selecting the name of the ROM in Options menu (hint: it's the top first option).
The following Mame ROMS must use Japan as the Region in Options menu.

Atomiswave/Naomi Roms
Rom Formats
Mame roms (0.198+) are now supported after updating the core from binary or source. Direct loading of BIN/DAT files are supported and use the same BIOS selection as described above.
Place your .zip files in:
/home/pigaming/RetroPie/roms/naomi for Naomi
And
/home/pigaming/RetroPie/roms/atomiswave for Atomiswave
If you prefer not to split your roms between Naomi and Atomiswave, either folder will work and launch the game without issue.
Error Codes
If you get an error code during boot, you will need to enter TEST mode. To do this, go to RetroArch RGUI then Options and enable Allow Naomi service buttons. You can enter TEST mode via L3 button and R3 to cycle thru menu items.
