The basic reason behind this is pretty simple when you think about it. Why is Arcade Emulation So Complicated?Īrcade emulation is unfortunately not as straightforward as console emulation. If you are looking for something along these lines check out my article on setting up MAME on RetroArch.

This is not a tutorial on how to set up and play arcade games. From this you will gain knowledge on some of the more confusing aspects of arcade emulation and how to understand them. Think of this article as lesson 101 in arcade emulation. Read on and you will be well on your way to becoming fully equipped to enjoy all those arcade titles that you loved when you were young, without the need to relinquish anymore of your weekly allowance. In this article I will endeavour to provide you with the essential knowledge you need to easily understand the ins and outs of arcade emulation.

If you manage to progress beyond the initial setbacks you will encounter numerous confusing terms such as MAME, CPS-2 and non-merged, and you will find few resources that assist you in achieving your goal – that being the holy grail of being able to play all your arcade favourites at the touch of a button. To enter the world of arcade game emulation is to enter a confusing maze of back tracks, dead ends and general disappointment. Unfortunately for many people playing arcade games on an emulator is not as straightforward as they first envisaged.

We are so fortunate in today’s world to be able to have free access to so many of our old arcade favourites, however the journey that leads to such a devine nirvana is fraught with hair tearing frustration and mind boggling confusion. Fast forward a few decades and I can still be found in front of a screen displaying classic arcade titles, except this time the screen is in my home and my spare change remains securely situated in my trouser pocket (or down the back of the sofa). Back in the days when I was a sprightly young lad it was not uncommon to find me down at the local sports centre, not exercising as I probably should have been, but feeding my hard earned pocket money into one of the few arcade cabinets that lined the corridors. Now, I just need to verify they work, then post them (probably by tomorrow).For many retro gaming enthusiasts such as myself, arcade emulation can be the pinnacle of gaming enjoyment. Yep! I got it working! AND, Sega X Board games appear to work:) These include Thunder Blade! I will do 2014 next:) I will do as many more HMODS as I can:) We "gotta catch them all"! I have updated almost every single HMOD. We may very well have the definitive MAME HMOD, given more testing, space aside:) UPDATE: It seems that some of the games that only previously worked on MAME 2000, such as Tapper, and other Midway Games, etc.now work in MAME 2010. If you already downloaded this, redownload it. But, it is still pretty awesome, at least having choices with many options!* Personally, I plan on still using MAME 2003, and ONLY flashing with 2010 when I want to play games like Thunder Blade.

So, basically you are at a crossroad, where you can choose between a few different options.Also, NEO GEO Bios are different for MAME 2010. *Disclaimer: In many instances, you cannot JUST change command line from /bin/mame2000 OR /bin/mame2003 TO /bin/mame2010 A TON of these rom sets have "changed", and need updated, accordingly! I know, it can be somewhat confusing.
