    Help! I'm addicted to mame32!!!

    I went to a lan party on saturday and this guy introduced me to mame32, an arcade emulator. I guess it's been around awhile, but it's new to me. Whoo, with Marvel vs Capcom, The Punisher, Dungeons and Dragons: Tower of Doom, Sunset Riders, etc on my computer, I havent touched Dungeon Siege or Q3 in 3 days(record).
    kthxbye

    Yeah, MAME rules

    Most people burn out on it in 1 to 3 years, some people (like me) don't and just have to force themselves to branch out to new things.

    There are versions of MAME with multiplayer support over TCPIP. I know it works great over LAN's but I haven't tried over the Internet.

    Well having 3 cancels and 7 no shows kinda sucked the projected fun out of it. That's only 15 ppl instead of 25. We managed to swap 30 GB's worth of files however...

    BTW I'd love to try MAME32 ... I have the app but finding the ROMs has been a pain in de arse.

    Yep well... I got into the game late. Most of the sites I've found have been taken down. I really wanna find one of that old Simpsons coin-op where you ran around Springfield trying to rescue Maggie. I played that game all day once at Wild Waves because the arcade attendant didn't lock the coin door on it. Free credits, baby!!
