There's lots of good emulators on Android, including MAME4ALL, but surprisingly no port of FBA. A port to iOS has recently been made by yoyofr, but he has no Android device to port to. Can someone perhaps pick up on this work, or do their own port please?

notaz said there's plenty of optimisation which could be done, but he doesn't seem to be working on it at the moment. Hope he goes back to PicoDrive soon.

It stretches to fill, it doesn't do an aspect ratio scale. Rotate works and looks great.

No, AlexKidd2x wasn't updated. Shame as its emulation is quite good, just tiny. As for Master System in Picodrive, notaz said that he's not too inspired to work much on the Master System emulation, but he did say he'd try to get around adding the Pause button at some point. Maybe we need to...

Same here, my $99 Wiz looked new. It also isn't defective as it runs PocketSNES fine. Maybe they're just down to their last few so have bumped the price up.

Picodrive supports scaling, but not Game Gear games (just Master System). There's been no update to AlexKidd2X either, so we're stuck with tiny GG screens. I normally can't stand scaled modes, but the Game Gear's 160x144 res is just too small on the Wiz's screen.

Franxis - your Wiz MAME4ALL archive is missing the 'cfg' folder, which stops internal settings like button config being saved.

Do you have a 'cfg' folder in your mame4all folder? If not then create it, I think this is a bug that previous versions didn't have. EDIT: Think this affects the Wiz version only.

Nice to see MAME4ALL getting an update, even if it is small. Hopefully you get chance to make more improvements soon.

Just a heads up for those who don't also check the Caanoo news section, there are new versions of PocketSNES, PCSX4ALL and MAME4ALL available for Wiz. Check the Caanoo News Zone forum for details.

Yay, this version is quite a lot faster than the last. Thanks bitrider. One minor quibble is that the diagonal tearing is still quite prominent on Wiz, could that be fixed as in Picodrive?

I've not tried to do TV-out on the Wiz, there should already be topics for that though. Forgot to say to get the r1 version of the pollux set, there's 2 versions. Direct link: http://dl.openhandhelds.org/cgi-bin/wiz.cgi?0,0,0,0,8,154

I meant UAE4ALL, not WinUAE of course - not sure how WinUAE would work on the Wiz. :) For the pollux script, get the pollux_set file from the Openhandhelds Wiz archive, then create a text file using Notepad++ (or any text editor that has Unix line endings - standard Notepad won't work). Add...

Wiz Picodrive runs 32X also, it's just that After Burner doesn't load.

I noticed WinUAE is one of the emulators which improves considerably if you use a pollux script to boost the CPU/RAM/screen timings. I guess the barebones program doesn't have the RAM tweaks, it also doesn't remember the CPU overclocking using the menu so the pollux script is highly recommended.

This shouldn't have been posted in the Wiz news section until the Wiz version was actually released.

I really like the official case, and it hasn't scratched my screen. There are slots in the case which come into contact with the screen, maybe it's stuff being put in those slots that cause the scratches? I don't use them so not an issue.

MAME4ALL is a bit odd when configuring keys, I think you're doing things right - that '...' is nothing to worry about. If you exit the menus you should see that the controls have changed ok. It's handy when pressing START+SELECT for the menu to first pause the game (L+R), otherwise you will end...

Sound seems to be more accurate in MAME though, and some games in GnGeo and FBA2X have bugs where the sound stops working (eg. Aero Fighters 2+3). Unfortunately to play all Neo Geo games well, you seem to need to use a combination of MAME4ALL (more accurate sound, configurable controls), GnGeo...

They also work on MAME4ALL. It may be down to your romset, GnGeo seems to only like older romsets.
