MacMAME is a port of the PC multi-emulator MAME. It allows you to play many of the classic arcade games from the early eighties on your Macintosh. It accomplishes this through emulation of the original hardware and the use of the original ROM code from those games.

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Brilliant program... would like to be able to pick where files are stored as apposed to default location Documants folder, (like on an external HDD or where the MacMame app is (on a external HDD))
Would like to see support for same Roms that PC/Windows version of Mame can handle, (Newer Games (Metal Slug 5, 6 etc for example))
Keep up with The Updates... Great!!!
Love this amazing problem

This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />I love MacMAME, and it's one of the top five applications on my computer. THANKS to the hardworking people who have given of their time. That being said, I'd love to see something, anything, improve in the app since I started using it 6 years ago. The current methods for sorting games is frankly so bad, I'd have thought that Microsoft thought it up. I can sort by year, company, genre...but not by simple alphabetical order. I can't type "Pac-man" and go to the Pac-Man version I want. I can't tab through games in order. I can't do an "iTunes search," typing my word into a search box and having it spring up for me.
How about radically changing this app around? Just the front-end, I am happy with the under-the-hood stuff. How about making something that looked like an iApp? I'll gladly donate towards this goal (if you tell us how).
yeah, gamepad no workie

This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Much better. Games load faster and broken games are working again but game controllers don't work correctly. Macally iShock 1 and 2. I was looking forward to Metal Slug 4 support with this release but no go.
Awesome

This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Yes it takes a while longer than I'd like to load a ROM and some ROMs are quitting out on me. However, I'm greatful to the developer for all his hard work on updating MacMAME. Brad thank you very much and I'm looking forward to any minor bug fixes you provide.
