Going to play some PC 98 games on my old laptop with Gentoo for Halloween. I've seen some of the horror tittles and they look pretty good. I want to play both Dead of the Brain games, corpse party, and a cool RPG called Peret em Heru.

The compile for neko project 21 was quick and figuring out how to load games and getting the fonts wasn't too hard. PC 98 is the oldest system that I've emulated.

Can you recommend a good guide? I tried a while back (on Batocera) and getting PC98 to load and the inputs to work properly were rough.

I had to resort to Google and had to create a the config folder myself. I eventually had to get the FONT.ROM file and place it in neko project 21s config folder. NP21 just needs fonts to load properly.
