Watching replays on Android Tablet

Post by isamu »

Can someone tell me if there is a version of MAME that is compatible with Android that also supports any of the replay files here at MARP?

There is a mame version for android. I just had a quick glance at my phone and didn't find any playback/record options. Then again that's mame4droid139u1 which to my recollection is not the latest version. Still I doubt any android version playbacks inps from MARP... or makes recordings.

Playing mame games with touch screen... not very practical.

Yeah it's bullshit. I don't want to have to buy a new fucking tablet that supports winblows 8 just to watch some MARP replays. I sincerely hope someone ports wolfmame 0106 or 0155 to android.

It may in the future become easier to build MAME for mobile platforms, although do be aware that performance won't be as good as on a desktop. Largely why many mobile builds available are based on ages-old versions of MAME.
