Controls:
C - Coin
1 - Start
Arrow keys - Joystick directions
Z - Jump
X - Fix

One odd thing that happened is that the first time I played, after completing the first 1 level -- when Ralph is thrown off the building -- it went to the kill screen, but that may have been a random thing since it didn't kill screen the next time.  :dunno

I assume this version wont run under mame as it's an exe file.
Some of the sound samples aren't there, like "I'm gonna wreck it", the iPad version is still the best so far in my opinion, just can run it on mame  :hissy:

MAME emulates hardware.  This has always been a PC game.
To emulate it, MAME would have to emulate the PC hardware it ran on (and would probably run at a few frames per second).
Much easier just to run it directly on your PC.

There are workarounds to make it show up in your MAME gamelist if you are running Hyperspin or Mala.

mame and mess have x86 support. It's pretty dismal though.

So here's the rundown:


* From what we can tell, it's real. It's not the "final" version, it's missing some sound effects and the highscore at the top doesn't change, etc.
* It won't run fullscreen if it's not rotated into vertical mode.  Rotate 90 then click fullscreen
* FixitFelixJr.exe -rotate=90 -fullscreen will start the game in fullscreen (vertical ONLY)
* Create a folder called "Screenshots" under it.  Hit F7 during gameplay for screenshots.  (note, they don't come out correctly unless you're fullscreen
* There are some weird network/server based options, not sure what they do if anything.
* DEFINITELY don't link to it or distribute it on this forum.

Just so you know, there are no speech effects in the actual arcade version.  Just speech bubbles with the words.  The "Fix it Felix!!", "HeY, you moved my stump! ERRRRR" and "I'm gonna wreck it" sound effects were added to the movie for effect.
