  • I want to build my own arcade controls!
On my Supergun, I hit the Test button and it puts me into the game's Test mode where I can change a number of things about the game, such as # of lives, difficulty etc.... and was wondering if you could do this with the games in MAME?  If so, how?

Thanks.

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

Hit TAB. If you want the games individual service mode, hit F2, then F3 to reset.
