Hmm, how do you exit this? Doing the L+R+Menu just crashes the emulator and I have to turn the power off.

I don't get why this doesn't run for me. It will get stuck on a black screen after the loading screen appears. This also happens with the new PocketSNES beta version and older version of that works fine. These are the only 2 emulators that get stuck.

How do the Taoplan shooters, Dogyuun, Batsugun etc. run? Are they full speed with sound?

Batsugun works, I haven't tried it in a long time, but I think it ran even on the gp2x.

They run fullspeed but without sound. No emulator in existence plays those two Taoplan games with full emulated sound. I don't think anyone knows how to figure out the protection on the sound chips. There IS sound in the official MAME build but it's very preliminary...even after being in MAME since version 0.36rc2. They're still fun to play even without sound though since they are good shooters.

How do you add ROMs to the list? I tried putting them in the roms folder but it's not detecting them.
