macross m3 does work. when you get to where you press start to start a new game it will show the year and then add three years to it, then it shows the date , now this might be where people think the game isnt working but if you just let it go eventually it will load and the game will start.. there are some graphics errors.

yep, same here. Nothing beats firing up a game of yie are kung fu, or joust. All the emulators are great. and sometimes i use kawaks or nebulafor neo geo games. but overall i think mame is the tops.

To the people here complaining about 1964 and saying that pj64 is better, quit doing crack before you post. Rices plugin needs to be configured correctly for it to work right. Also there are other plugins to use wich will make some of the games that rices cant run wokr.

I have a whole lot of n64 roms and i would estimate that around 90% of them are playable (and i mean you can actually play them. 1964 runs so many more games than pj64 there is no comparison. not to mention that the speed is great.

Why dont you try 1964 with rices 5.4.1 plugin. it works really good. Its not perfect but its definitely getting there.

@Elazul... Have you looked at most of the Genesis Library? Or the NES? or SNES? or Gameboy? Most of the games on these systems were CRAP, save for the jems. I mean, look at Battletoads on the Genesis, or Pit Fighter, or Ahh! Real Monsters. They were all made with money in mind.

Most games today, as well, are made with money in mind, but at least the price of MAKING the game can keep some HORRIBLE companies from trying to make a game without a game at it's core.

Anon.

THose games you spoke of at the time were considered pretty original and fresh. And all those games were very successful.

Why do you think video game company's go into business. Without thinking about money, they go out of business.

has anyone had any luck getting crouching tiger hidden dragon working correctly with mame. I get horrible colors and the game wont start it just keeps going back to the insert coin menu. Ive tried multiple sets as well.

If anyone has working driver for snowbrothers 3 could you post it please. the one i have isnt working right.

January 15, 2004

I don't think anyone has the rom and I'd really like to know the exact source of all these pictures because it seems to be coming all from one place... My guess, SNK itself.

why would snk do that. they know it will be emulated sooner or later. I doubt they would taunt the hackers.
