Re: Raspberry Pi 2 and mame

Its seems to be conflicting views here for this thread.
Do you want arcade accuracy or just to be able to play they games.
As we are all aware accuracy is what mame is all about, to which this is not going to work on raspberry pi2.
If its about playing the games, which is really what got a lot of people interested in mame in the first place.
Then we have to take a step back of either using older mame sources or other arcade emulators. This will allow the playing of the games at expense of true arcade accuracy.
But the fun is in the playing of the games too.

In reality MAME is there as a documentary evidence of how these machines worked, not to be able to play them.
The user just wants to play the games and in a lot of cases dosnt care that game x may be 1 cycle out of sync.

So as coma orignal asked Pi2 - Mame will still work badly on the machine, so take older code or other older arcade emulators adapt and rewrite for pi. Then you can have your portable arcade machine.
