Jrioni Mame Arcade now for Xperia Play

I just saw jrioni arcade has been updated to work with 2.3.3 and the dev has added xperia play support.
Has anyone tried it yet to see if it is actually any good?
I dont want to buy it unless i know it works
Do we finally have mame for Android, and better yet, for the xperia play?

bump bump bump !
cmon, someone must have tried the new version.
We have been waiting for a decentish version of Mame for ages for the Xperia Play and this is the first one.

If its free post an apk if possible

It works. Setting up the buttons puts in a ? instead of the button name, but it works properly. The emulator will put up the virtual buttons until you press a gamepad button, then turns them off.

Final Fight, Bad Dudes, Robocop, Strider, Captain Commando, 3 Wonders, Golden Axe, Outrun, Mercs, Turtles, Shinobi, Sly Spy all working perfectly with hardware controls thanks!!

Excellent news. Robocop arcade version is one of my favourite games ever. Next to the Spectrum version (yes i did say Spectrum ) it is the best Robocop game ever made.
Can you report how well other roms work too please.
Also can someone post a link to the 0.35 romsets (or whichever ones are needed to work with this emulator)
Im waiting on a new bank account card. When i get it im making my first purchase this emulator and n64oid,
That will keep me busy for games for at least the next 3 months. Screw new games

finally got the passcode sorted ,
ive got 74gb of mame roms on my pc but there not the 035 set
so dont think they will work,
trying to find 035 set is proving pretty hard

http://chui.dcemu.co.uk/mame4all.html#GameCompatibilityList - i think game list is same. Mam4all have compatybility for mame 0.35 romset.

Yes, you need to look for a MAME4All romset.

says the file has been deleted for me?

I made the same mistake, make sure you remove the ---- 0.35 off the end of the link - it should end P1M. I just checked it and it's still there.
Moderators - am I allowed to post the direct download link?

For anyone buying this after the timestamp of this post, can you tell me if you got it ok? I'm continually getting server errors when I click on OK to confirm my purchase.
I sure hope I'm not getting billed each time, I'd be down a month's wages

Wow, thanks for the heads-up...this thing plays Ghouls 'n Ghosts awesomely. It's a bit tricky to assign the buttons to the Play's hardware buttons but I figured it out...you have to press the back hardware button after clicking on the assignment (because it pulls up the virtual keyboard) and then press the hardware button you want it to be assigned to.

dsswoosh...yeah, this one is no good for cps1 games...get jrioni arcade...plays them flawlessly with sound (strider/ghouls 'n ghosts, etc.). Tiger is better for NeoGeo games.

You need to pay to load states. Plus this app is good quality and I would gladly support the dev.......but not with bad cps1 sounds.
I already bought Jrioni and cps1 games work great. Jrioni doesnt have save states though.

Hey guys, there's a update!! Cps1 sound is ok now!! This is a automatic update when you load Tiger Arcade he ask you if you want update.

Cool, ill check it out. If CPS1 sound works flawlessly, i will buy.

The version of Tiger Arcade has jumped from v2.0.6 to v2.2.0. Yes, CPS1 sound is now working properly. Not sure what else has changed though, especially with such a jump in version numbers.

Hey I was just wondering if anyone knows how the purchasing works. For instance if I buy the app, then remove it or do a system wipe. B/c I wanted to change my kernal/rom ect, will I have to repurchase?
Pretty much im asking if anyone knows how tiger king keeps track of who purchased and who didnt.

Keep the .apk safe and im sure you will be ok.
Also confirmed, cps1 sound works great. About time !
Now all we need is a decent MAME emulator that supports the latest roms sets and the Xperia Play officially becomes the Worlds best portable games machine

You're not going to see a MAME that supports recent ROM sets for the Xperia Play. As MAME got more and more accurate over the years, its minimum requirements have gone up quite drastically which is why most phones/devices are based around MAME v0.34 or so.

Can someone point me to a good version of Marvel Super Heroes, and MSHvSF?
The Punisher, SamSho and SF2 work great, but I can't get those games to play for me.
edit, found a good copy of MSH

He Will Add More Games On (Tiger Arcade 3.0.0 or Later)
i Searched in Google i Wrote Tiger Arcade 1218 Wordpass
You Will Find His Blog

2.2.0 was recently released.
He said on his Twitter that 3.0.0 is being released this month and has support for over 2000 more games and - on high-end phones only - netplay.

Apparently a beta of 3.0.0 has been released to about 100 beta testers.

Purchasing data is saved in cloudy(paypal linked server). Even if you do factory reset the phone and format your sdcard. You can re-install the Tiger arcade and goto menu-settings to select manually sync payment data ,then everything is synced up. It is saying that your app is paid version again.

TigerArcade v3.0.0 alpha version is avaible for people who bought full version ! Lots of game to test, and Netplay in menu ! Great EMU.

I bought it, I believe... how did you get the alpha? Did you get an email? Is there anywhere they are selling it at now? I can't find it on Slideme, for instance.
You have to load up a game, hit the menu button then attempt to load/save a savestate and you'll be given the option of buying it.
Bought it, didn't get the update. Probably like he said, just picked first 100 people or something like that. Oh well.

Order and chaos finally out but do i buy from android market place or gameloft site??

Its just appeared on both the android market and the gameloft site on my phone. The gameloft site sells it for £3 and the android market for £4.99. Would both include correct optimization for xperia play controls? Anyone know? Also is it true that if I buy from gameloft site then change phone sometime I won't be able to redownload but I can if I get it from the market? Please respond soon as I'm itching to buy it
---------- Post added at 10:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:52 PM ----------
Ok I gave in and bought from Android market (in case I ever change phone) I'll find out the hard way if the controls work

I loved Order & Chaos on iOS. I'll be buying it too, but first I'll keep peeled to see how you like the controls

Its a ***** to get gameloft to send you the apks again. When I wiped my phone I asked them and they flat out told me I never bought the games. Luckily I realized I had the apks on my SD card still

The other issue is if you buy from the gameloft store, you can never use that apk on another android device. They are always tied to the device type. I learn that lesson the hard way. I had 6 games from them on my droid x, couldn't install a single one on my XP.
I'll never buy another gameloft game, or that BS from the ea flexion store.

If you bought legitmently the game,just google deeper to retain
I used the XDA App to post this, what did you use?

Just bought it on the market so I can install it on my Xoom as well.

Wow, really? They've been good about giving me the latest APKs when I have an issue.
The purchase history section of their mobile store is unreliable at best, but when I provide proof of purchase (I ALWAYS buy through Amazon Payments so I have an undeniable source) they usually send me the APK... and have even given me free games to make up for issues I've had :\

Ok I bought it from android market, the xperia play controls do not work and seems to be no option to enable them? I waited all this time to buy it too... Should have just googled for it ages ago eh...since gameloft spent so much time on NOT optimizing it.

Funny; I was just wondering the same thing and bought it from the Gameloft Store based on that thought...
As a side note, I notice the Amazon Payments option is gone >_<, but on the plus side there's now an account system (and an e-mail notification upon purchase) so I have a more reliable system of seeing what I purchased. That was a VERY necessary change.
I'll report if my story's any different after the data download is complete. Right off the bat I don't see it in the Xperia PLAY Game Launcher... not a good sign.

I hope it's just an update issue and will be fixed soon.

FFFF.... subscription expired... damn, it wasn't that long since I ditched iOS.
...anyway, I can't report anything because my subscription's up and the son of a ***** subscription service is down (apparently it's been down for days too).

Awww.. was hoping to find out, if anyone else tests out the gameloft site's download of Order and Chaos on Xperia play can you let us know if the controls work? Its just touch screen which is ok...but disappointing....

Well, I've been questioning Gameloft on the issue, and from what they say - it may just be a bug (does Gameloft have a error testing staff? Surely someone is testing to avoid these major issues...).
Gameloft's good about giving away free stuff to distract us from issues... hopefully they'll just bump my subscription some months or something so I can find out if this is really Xperia PLAY Optimized... or at least play while I wait for a version I can play without (lame) touch controls.

Thanks mate, been waiting for a while - id always buy from the market, more resiliance in the long run!
We should all join a guild together, what server are you going on (i'd recommend the top one)

I don't have an account so I'll have to wait until the subscription service errors are fixed.

Thanks, ive emailed them too. I made a char on the European server, storm cape.

Well I downloaded it and it seems fun but there is a lot of lag. Like when I cast a spell the animation and everything plays but the spell itself won't cast well after it's cast time. Also adding xperia play support would greatly enhance the experience as it's pretty annoying at times with the touch screen controls.

Unfortunately the game is also not available for the ZTE Blade with CM7.

Tried it on my Sensation...didn't like it at all. Same thing over and over...just click and drag to make a frame for them to got to the pipe....this one is not for me.

I'm disappointed to hear that. My first play through I thought exactly the opposite that as soon as I get used to playing one way they change it up completely. Like the balloon balls and the fire balls and then the digital flingy balls towards the end..

I got it working by downloading it from here
http://worldofgoo.com/dl2.php?lk=demo&filename=WorldOfGooDemo.apk

Hello justflikwalk,
thanks for the hint! I will surely give this game a try. After reading your reply, I looked at the official developer's site (which is mentioned @Google's market), 2dboy.com. There I found this information:
UPDATE: If you are having trouble getting World of Goo on your Android device, try this:
Android Market imposes some device-specific limitations on the size of applications that can be installed. If you can’t see World of Goo on the Android Market, try installing directly from here:
Demo version:
worldofgoo.com/dl2.php?lk=demo
Full version:
worldofgoo.com/shop.php?platform=android
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But their explanation is faulty because World of Goo Demo is 28M and Where's My Water is 28.8M. And I was able to install Where's My Water from the market without any problem.
The full version of World of Goo is 47M. Fortunately there is S2E for CyanogenMod!
Kind regards
Wolfgang

Apparently, Gameloft's new Men In Black 3 is Xperia Play Optimized, but...

Can anyone get the damn thing to play? Mine gets through the 77MB download, then crashes

I don't really care to play it myself, I just want confirmation that someone can get it to work (for databasing purposes, obviously).

No it isnt Xperia Play Optimized. Its touch based game more like Ice Age Village. And I dont see the point this being optimized for Xplay. So yea, No.

If it does get Xplay optimized we will probably be forced to go through the GL wapshop.....

tried this game (i'm on AOKP), no problem, but it isn't optimized for the Play (and also it is ****ing boring)
