    Tip for PC10 games, go into the Mame settings and turn the Dip switch to "Free play"

    No more lame timer/credits.

    Also, Killer Instinct "works" although not very playable. I just had to try anyway, loved just seeing it on my iPhone :)

    Oh, Ridge Racer works also, and with the most aggressive CPS3 speed hack enabled, its quite playable :)

    Still not having any luck with any NeoGeo games interestingly. None of my rom sets for FBA or the old Mame work. Tried new ones and have gotten to the point where maybe I need to start trying different bios files.

    I don't get how you guys are having luck with the speed hacks, seems when I turn it on the games get slower, tried with tekken and street fight ex and soul calibur.

    Yep. The sites are out there if you're persistant, and know how best to search using tools like *Google. I can't imagine hunting and pecking through different roms from different locations looking for *the one that might work. You need to find a source that organizes by rom set. In this case, one that perhaps has an archive of *old rom sets.

    If you want to do some testing before monkeying around with the phone's files, you can download a desktop MAME that runs version 0.139 to your *computer first. If they work there, they'll work on this version.

    Easy to find is one thing. A clean link without Virus/malware/trojan/browser-hijacking is something else. I don't use bittorrent because it's a damn slog (at least it was last time I used it in 08 or so), and my emulating days were back in 96-99 for the most part...the websites that hosted roms weren't harrassed by corporations and were, for the most part, run by enthusiasts yoi could trust.

    I forget the names of the sites now; their probably long gone. I'm not going to randomly visit websites and download files, and I'm not a kid who's "in the loop" about these things.

    Anyways, ios 6.1 just went live and a non-tethered jailbreak for all devices save some Apple TV models is about to launch. Whoever thought ios 6 would spell an end to jb'ing...some people never learn.

    I don't dl jailbreaks for the same reason I haven't stocked up on roms in the last decade...how can I trust the source? Back in the late 90's, viruses were just viruses. Now, visit the wrong website with an unpatched security hole you're unaware of and your system can be completely compromised without a single click on your part. Damn do I hate web "2.0" and all the crap it brought. If someone wants to pm me an ftp site, maybe I'll consider the risk.

    I was thinking the same thing. You can actually change the icon, however i don't think you can change the name of the app. Not sure but at least you can change the icon.

    I can't seem to get the icon to copy over to my mac, nothing shows up. May have to fire up vmware and try in windows. Anyone else have this problem?

    I had the same problem the icon wouldn't download to my desktop, i'm using ifunbox. Not sure why, and quite honest its not that big of a deal for me to mess around with it.

    Nah it wasn't one of the popular ones a bit obscure it was. It was pretty cool though. Think karateka except brutal gladiator battles. It was a simple combat system (swing sword high, mid, low) and you'd see the persons helm and gaunltlets and stuff fly off, lol.

    I'm starting to remember alot more from my childhood now that I'm seraching. There was also one pretty cool top down action where you played a police roaming around the city looking for crooks to crash into :). I don't need help I'll find it I'm just having fun.

    Finally, I can play the game I fell in love with(along with many others), as an early teenager in 1989, wherever I go. :D

    I'm having bad luck with this.. All I want is a perfect working rom for Super Mario, and Donkey Kong. :(

    I found a Donkey Kong that worked, but the music was slow, along with the laggyness. I tried using the speedhack options and it wasn't too useful.

    Please PM me! :)
