Will this PC play NFL Blitz?

I would like to get NFL Blitz (arcade version, not N64) running on my arcade. Would this PC work? Sorry, I don't know much about computers.

You need about as fast as you can get for Blitz. It plays pretty well on a C2D clocked to 4GHz. I am not sure what the minimum is, but you will need to be close to that speed. I don't think a P4 will even be close.

  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.

PSX emulator and Blitz. You can run that instead.

Hey Bigjase,

If you cannot run Mame's Blitz well, you may want to consider the old PC versions of Blitz 99 and /or 2000. 99 look, runs and plays great, but for some reason, 2000 runs choppy, even on my Duo core.

the problem is that cab has 3 dedicated processers i believe (1 for sound, 1 for graphics, 1 for hd controller?)
