To play NeoGeo games, like KOF, you can install the GnGeo emulator.

sudo conary update {gngeo,xgngeo}=@fl:2-devel

xgngeo is the graphical front-end to gngeo.

Then you need the NeoGeo bios. Find it on the internet. The one I find working is a 233KB zip file:

$ unzip -l neogeo.zip 
Archive:  neogeo.zip

Open Applications->Games->XGngeo and instruct it to the extracted zip file (for neogeo bios).

Then you can search and download game roms you like. They don't need to be extracted. One thing to note: I have a kof97.zip and its contents are some .rom files. I have to unzip the file, rename all *.rom to *.bin, make a zip file again; take a look at the files under /usr/share/gngeo/romrc.d).
