You could just download "movies" of those games from emumovies and/or youtube (with some commercials of those games maybe), put them in a folder and tell mala to randomly play the vids in that folder. :cheers:

yes i know but is not the same thing, for example if i want to play the game on screen saver i need to search and start, but if the game is realy loaded i can play in realtime

why use a screensaver then...a screensaver is used when your not playing. If you enable favorites in mala, your favorite games will always be on top and you don't need to search (if you actually play those games the most).
