Help - Games getting played out
pboreham:
One of my fave old games is 'Dunk Shot' - the basketball game viewed overhead and played with a trackball. Very good fun (similar to Tekhan World Cup).
Other than that, some of the old wrestling games are good - WWF Wrestlefest for one.
With over 6000 games available, has to be something good! What I found useful was to download all the MAME art, so even if you dont know the game by name, you can get a good idea of what its about from the screen shot shown. Found some gems this way...

I'm not sure if Mario Golf would work w/ a trackball
or not but the multiplayer should be hotseat.
Have NO idea why the original Star Wars doesn't work
(except maybe bad romset or wrong version?)
I didn't know the trilogy game was working on MAME yet...
If you like NBA Jam, there are probably a ton of basketball
games out there... I'm not an expert on those, but I did
like Rim Rockin Basketball

i second that. there are quite a few consoles that have good multiplayer games on them. that will expand your selection quite a bit. i always wondered why some emus bothered with being able to list different emulators (like atomic for instance) and now youve explained why!
throw on an snes, sega mega drive and n64. and playstation if its emulated well (i have no idea if it is or not) and maybe whittle down your mame list a little ;)
whether or not any console games will be good with a trackball is another matter of course...

For NBA Jam you need to enter service mode and adjust the master volume upwards. For some reason the factory default has it really, really quiet.

^^ Both of these are great 4 player alternate party games (love the beer round in Shuuz) if you have a trackball.
There's a couple dart games out there and pool that are alternating turns. For something different, there are the quiz games and 3PL wheel of fortune (if that's your thing).

What version of MAME are you using and which set of roms are you using?
