Raspberry Pi 2 with Mame - anyone tried it yet?
clok:
Check out youtube, several videos of it running quite a bit faster then the old one. Didn't see much MAME but SNES, and PSX stuff it really looking good. Surprised its the same price as the old one.

Just put PiPlay on a micro sd card and tried it in my Pi2.
Mame works pretty good, however Galaga 88 seems to be a little laggy. Not sure whats going on, I am thinking about overclocking the cpu.
Played burger time, pipe dream, donkey kong, mappy, frogger, and 1942 and they seemed ok.
Played world class bowling and it seems a little laggy, but im not real sure. WCB is a pretty intense game, so I can see where it may need more processor muscle.
I was pleased to see that high scores are saved.
Also put a couple of super nes roms on it and they seem to run fine.
Im still learning but one thing I don't like is that when you quit a game it takes a few seconds to get back to the front end.

Try retropie.
It uses a slightly older version of advanced Mame.
Also I believe the delay is due to the sdcard speed.
Not sure yet, I have a class 10 sdcard on the way.

Ok, I will do.
I am using a Lexar 16 gig micro SDHC card. It says it is a class 10.

nice on the SD card.
class 10 makes a world of difference over standard cards.
