Mame Speed On Gp2x

[deadl0ck]

Hi all,

I'm considering buying the GP2X 266Mhz specifically for MAME.

The latest GP2X MAME has about 1138 romset supported, but can anyone tell me approx how many of these run around the 100% speed ?

The reason I ask is that the comments here:

don't exactaly fill me with confidence.

For example - what does Street Fighter II Champion Edition play like ?

I'm very interested in buying one, along with the breakout board, but if anyone could shed some light on the speed issue I'd greatly appreciate it !

Thanks !!!

ooh been a while since I played Mame, I seem to remember it running very well. It's got a lot of customisable options to you can tweak it nicely. I dont think I played SF2 but Final Fight ran well with a little overclocking (266Mhz)

If it's Street Fighter you're in to, you may be interested in the CPS2 emulator which can play all the Alpha games full speed.

I checked SF 2 normal at 200MHZ with normal version of mame I was getting just under 20FPS with some sound glitchs, and at 260MHZ I was getting 39FPS with great sound. I did not have any luck with SF2 Champ. Edition I could not get it to start it kept rebooting.
