Raspberry Pi 2 with Mame - anyone tried it yet?

(1/15) > >>

Hello all,

Since they have released the new iteration of the Raspberry Pi, the Raspberry Pi 2, I am curious if anyone has tried this out with Mame.  I have dabbled with the original Raspberry Pi and it had a tendency to zap the SD card of it's info when running Mame.  So I wrote it off as a cool project, but not practical enough for a Mame cabinet build.  I am wondering if the new Raspi 2 is more stable and can handle Mame better.

Any info would be appreciated.

Thank You,

Geo

I have not. I wanted to piggy back on your question and ask if anyone knows about a free version of Windows 10 that is supposed to run on RPi2..? That suggests that we may not need a special build to run on the RPi anymore, but I don't know any of the details, just some rumors.

I signed up for W10 but haven't heard back yet.

I still need to do the MAME test with RP2.

The Win10 running on the Pi 2 will not be the sane intel/AMD version running on your Desktop PC but a special build so you need an even more special build of MAME to run on it  ;D
