Pretty impressive. They look like they run well and are well designed interfaces. Who's responsible for those versions?

ScummVM definitely looks like it would be awesome on the iPad.

Here's the author's website for iMAME4ALL.


He just added Wii Classic controller support, it works GREAT !


SCUMMVM is available on the Urban Fanatics source repository.

+1, it looks like the perfect format for iPad.

Not that anyone should spend the money on an iPad, iPhone, iPod, iMac or any other kind of apple-created nonsense. Hi, we're apple, and everything we sell is overpriced junk!

These are all great and the team who made these have a genesis a.d. Now also!!! They have achievements for classic games and high scores for alot of games too. They have like a top 50 chart for both on there website it's pretty cool if you have an iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad they are all worth it. And the classic controller works great for all of them

The new ScummVM "FaSCInating" release 1.2.0 supports quite a number of SCI games and is already available on the iPad.

This is great news B)

...and it may work with MAME since it uses Bluetooth like the Wii controller.


EDIT: I just saw there is a separate thread for the iCade...

A JB for iPad3 is available since a while. Time for an update on the emulation front (pretty old thread).

Not much to say about Robert Broglia's emulators, they're just great. iFBA plays titles like SF 3rd Strike, Demon Front and Bee Storm (DoDon Pachi II) almost perfect.


Up to 5 Wii Mote / Classic controllers for multiplayer sessions are supported. Playing on TV with HDMI adapter is pretty good (MAME supports widescreen format).


A decent N64 and PSX emulator is unfortunately still missing.

This thread is making me consider an iPad... Hmmmmm.

Same with Android.

. I know you're not likely to read this reply but 1st off to get those emus you have to JAILBREAK to be able to download them from CYDIA ( which Apple frowns upon ) . 2nd off although Apple is indeed overpriced they generally have reliable tech ( and it is somewhat user-friendly ) . 3rd I am typing this from an IPhone 4s
