Hullo!! Welcome to the forums!

Do you have the aproproate bios installed? Fairly sure you will need the neogeo.zip bios installed.

Try also using the FBalpha core from within retroarch. You’ll need go use the online update to download additional cores.

Alternatively, seek out the PlayStation ISO of metal slug. It’s arguably “better”. Or the GBA one for that matter.

Not into the game folder. Put it into Apps/Emulators/Bios  
And use FBNeo for MetalSlug, it run flawless.

No, you’re not stupid! It’s a strange thing where you’re almost expected to know how to use linux, retroarch and other things that the regular consumer would have no idea about!

Anyway, have a look at this; cross referencing the libretro documentation, regarding retroarch and arcade emulation. Just to save someone having to reiterate what has already been mentioned.

That’s what Lix has suggested, asking if you’ve tried FB Neo. Have a look at that link that I replied to you above, following the instructions.

Is there any other way we can help you?

Unfortunately this is not allowed on the forum. ROM’s are covered by copyright law and you can ‘officially’ only use roms of which you own the original game (not a lawyer so wording might be off). There are many sites offering them for download but unless it is shareware or made very clear that the copyright has been lifted, this is from a legal perspective, a crime.
