It's possible to integrate Samurai Showdown Perfect in Retropie?

It's possible to integrate Samurai Shodown Perfect rom* on Retropie on Raspberry?

*On the net I have found samsh5fep.zip and samsh5fe.zip

In case it was possible which emulator should be used? Final Burn Neo?

And, above all , how is it possible to do it?

Thx in advance

@saku00 yes it is possible to run samorai showdown V perfect in retropie. And it runs great in FBNeo. But it being an arcade neogeo game means you need the proper romset version and bios file. Finding random roms on websites will lead to frustration as you have no idea what version FBANeo/MAME of a rom is for and probably will not work.

samsh5fe works with FBNeo.

The only 2 roms I found are from ar***e.org but they don't work

Then you'll need a compatible FBNeo romset archive. I have a samsh5fe and samsh5sp and they work with FBNeo.

EDIT: samsh5fe titlescreen is still 'Samurai Showdown V Special', maybe it's not the 'perfect edition'.

From what I understand the "Perfect" edition of the game is an emulator that runs the "Special" edition, and overlays it with new content. It isn't a self-contained ROM.

Fullname of samsh5fe is "Samurai Shodown V Special (Final Edition, location test version)", it is indeed what some people refer to as "Perfect Edition". The word "Perfect" feels kinda counterfeit though, afaik they simply removed some gameplay elements from "Samurai Shodown V Special" (probably making the game more casual in the process) to make room for a story mode.

Except if you are using a non-merged romset, you'll probably need its parent samsh5sp.

To be more precise, the commercial emulator from "Samurai Shodown Collection" uses some quirks to replace the title screen and to add an english translation to the story mode. FBNeo use the raw romset and doesn't have any of those quirks.
