VERY NICE… but one niche problem?

First of all, this is the app us Gen X’ers have been waiting for. Yep, rocking’ a library of arcade games… on our old guy large screen iPads. 😅 BUT, there’s a problem with that one problem game… Q*Bert! We need a way to set the joystick diagonally to UL/UR/DL/DR. Seems like an easy enough tweak.

working great on my iphone 16 pro

really good app! if you’re familiar with loading roms onto your iphone you will find this easy to use. controller support is great and the phone screen controls work surprisingly well too. sound and video work out of the box but you also get access to the MAME menu. also note if you can’t play saidaioujou that is a MAME thing, not a fault of this app

Corrupts your savestates

Corrupted my game save file prior to completing it on the final level DO NOT BUY THIS

Can you help me put the arcade game Tmnt and add it because that a classic game I use to play

I played it on a
Ship
ferry

More sophisticated than expected...

Revised: Ok, now know this is from MAME so no wonder it's sophisticated. But EXPLAIN:

- Why do some games play fine in full screen mode with on screen default controls (Space Invaders, Pacman) while others do not (Asteroids, Pole Position)?! In the latter case UNPLAYABLE with buttons not working for turning. Strangely in the case of Pole Position, the steering very slightly works but not fully with no acceleration much less gear change!

- WHY is this "Palestra" (never even heard of it) included and for that matter in one's arcade collection and WORSE after being deleted always comes back, even without internet connection and even after the root file is removed?! Not to mention the ROM does NOT even work!

- How is it the game screen iconography was added upon internet connection but then disappeared later upon launches with no internet connection, only to be finally 'permanent' even with no internet after several launches of it all disappearing?

All this erodes trust. And the anateur cluttered app icon persists. Sloppy.

----- revised review below ----- ... judging from its awful logo/icon thumbnail. Design 101: keep it simple! (The app icon is so over complicated with detail many won't even be able to see so small. Just keep the pixelated title and one button or stick.) It is comprehensive though. However, there seems to be no accelerometer option. That really matters for an iOS app. That said, in full screen mode the joystick/move control (invisible which is fine and preferred) doesn't work right! It doesn't hold in position. Unplayable as is. Some requests: - A dial or steering wheel option is essential. - Separate haptic feedback option between joystick and buttons. - Option for different color buttons. Yes fire buttons were usually red, but many arcade games had white, yellow, or black buttons too. - Why blank menu icons for the roms? Where is the artwork import for that? Suggestion: Have three control panel options: - Joystick with two buttons (it's too cluttered and unecessary with six, and aesthetically awful!) - Dial/Wheel with pedal and shifter (of course for all the racing games and otherwise for dial) - Buttons only (here you can have six, as ultimate classics like 'Space Invaders' and 'Asteroids' for example did not have a joystick) * Configuration options navigation with hyper-sensitive joystick is awful untenable DEFECTIVE! ---

you’re far better off using retroarch instead.

this is if not one of the worst emulators of all time, not very surprising considering this is the apple appstore.

Good game, but a few issues

Killer instinct 1994 worked well, but when I launched Tekken 1994, the first virtua fighter, and war gods never work. So can you allow those games and email me the links to those games if you have em working?

Not user friendly yet

Thank you for your effort

Amazing Arcade Emulator

This is an amazing arcade emulator for iPhone that uses mame. It can run quite a few arcade systems from the mid 70s to the late 90s. I’m impressed by how well some advanced arcade boards can run such as Sega model 2 games running flawlessly on my iPhone. Overall a great arcade emulator with many options for how you play.

6 Buttons on Portrait Mode please!

Again I asked you guys before for the next update, can we get 6 buttons total instead of 4 buttons on Portrait Mode, please???

No open

Who Fix Bug?

Didn’t work

Nothing more to be said — it simply didn’t work.

Love this app but need more aspect ratio options!

This is one of my favorite emulator apps for iOS but it’d be perfect to have more or adjustable slider aspect ration options like what PPSSPP does.

Fantastic App

Absolutely loving this app. One bug I’ve noticed though is in Virtua Cop 1 & 2 if you get shot by an enemy, it’s then impossible to shoot that enemy (using touch controls). You can shoot outside the enemy’s target reticle but not inside. If you shoot inside the reticle the gun just reloads. A similar bug also seems to exist in HOTD. This bug is only in 0.285, the controls worked perfectly in 0.284
