--- Quote from: Tiger-Heli on April 20, 2012, 12:05:28 pm ---From your reply - I know "MAME4Droid Reloaded" will only show ROMS that I have. Was the same feature added to "MAME4Droid" (based on the 37b5 core)... --- End quote --- I don't believe Mame4Droid has been updated since he released the "Reloaded" version so, in essence, no I don't think so. Quick scrolling (pressing right/left as opposed to up/down) was pretty easy/fast to get through the full list. I have NO idea about performance on the Galaxy Player, I can't seem to find processor info on it. But I can say, as with desktop MAME, CPU speed is the determining factor. Reloaded is intended for 1ghz procs or better, if I remember correctly... --- Quote from: Tiger-Heli on April 20, 2012, 12:05:28 pm ---...Still - does anyone know of a frontend for it? I'm used to EmuLoader or Mame32, and would prefer something similar (gamelist with screenshots) - although I could do without it if I don't have to pick out the 30 games I loaded from the 2000 available... --- End quote --- Good luck with finding a frontend like the ones we're used to here. This one guy seems to be the entire MAME scene on Android. :cry: :cry: :cry: My personal opinion? Playing classics on a touchscreen SUCKS. Get something that runs Android 3.2 or better, and has a USB port for a controller at least. |

It uses a Hummingbird 1 Ghz single-core CPU with 512 MB Ram. But I know desktop MAME ... - MAME 0.100 wasn't recommended for a 200 Mhz processor, but it would probably be okay for older classic games. --- Quote ---My personal opinion?

If I have to carry along a controller, I'll just play on my home rig. The SGP is mainly to be an MP3 player and MAME is just gravy for it ... (And supposedly there is the option of WiiMote Controller with BT, but again, I'm not carrying two devices with me just to play old games. Thanks agian!!! [/quote] |

I was thinking from the perspective of just having the complete ROM set on the device and not worrying about which set was loaded. Even a modest micro sd would hold it (pretty sure it was only a couple of GBs.) --- Quote from: Tiger-Heli on April 20, 2012, 01:40:42 pm ---The SGP is mainly to be an MP3 player and MAME is just gravy for it ... --- End quote --- I'm not an Apple guy by any means -- obviously, since I own a TF... -- but if this is a "throwaway" device you're thinking about, why not just buy a 16- or a 32gb iPod Touch? (maybe a used one or refurb?) You could still get your MAME on, and have the (still) more ubiquitous option for other things too. Just a thought. :cheers: |
