Greets all!
....I've been a lookin' but I can't seem to find any documentation on how to play Beatmania in MAME.
...although I know I can figure it out (my game is over before I even have a chance to really figure it out each time)...I was wondering if any one has created a faq on this one that any one is aware of?
Just wonderin'
The MameMaster! ??? ???
PS- and yes I have plenty of "virtual quarters" to keep trying it over and over and over.......but it's so darn complicated!

FYI-
I just came across this site:
http://www.jpopmusic.com/beatmania/bmfaq.php
It covers a "version" of beatmania for the PC and discusses the basic game controls/how to play.
....but a MAME faq would be interesting if it exists!

Well i think to get the full effect of Beatmania, you need to equivalent controls for it. You need a record player-looking spinner, and 5 buttons (in the configuration of 5 piano keys). You are basically a DJ playing tunes and hitting the right button combonations at the right time (ala ddr)

You can get a beatmania controller for the psx then get a psx to usb convertor.
Get the 7 key controller so you can support later versions.
Does mame have 1 or 2 buttons for the turntable?
