MAME & NEO-GEO emulator with online scoreborad, featuring new input method for mobile devices and new gameplay elements for classic arcade games. Includes changes to core MAME video and input systems making it faster and smoother than other arcade emulators on the market. Along with presenting new ways to play old games on your mobile we also aim to make it compatible and easy to use with real arcade cabinets by connection your Android device to a bigger display and actual arcade controls, console gamepad or mouse/keyboard. Gameplay video: Download on Google Play (Android Market): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.CrazyTilt Beside the program itself I would also like to discuss the future of a PC. I believe soon there will be no more PCs. My phone is already faster than my computer from several years back. All I need is a way to plug in my keyboard and video-out, and there it is my new PC. Today's phones ARE computers, and when I'm done I put it in my pocket and off I go, and when I want to play the games I put it in my arcade cabinet, easily. Price? $70 - $250, or anything better will do, and it's getting cheaper. -- So, how long do you think it will take before you change your PC for some tablet or phone? Or is there maybe some reason why PCs would still remain for personal home computing after all? |

I'll probably wil be needing a pc for a long time, for stuff like 3d animation, photoshop, illustrator, after effects, visual studio...all examples of software that wouldn't run on a phone/tablet |

I guess a bigger box will always be able to provide more power, so for professionals using that kind of software I think you are right. What really pushed me to think about it is that new Windows is obviously designed for tablets. When I first installed it I couldn't figure out why did they make it so ugly and unlike anything we've seen so far. But that ugly menu with large icons, that's made for tablets and touchscreens, isn't it? |

I think I'll keep my phone as a communication device and PCs for productivity and entertainment. |
