MAME4droid 2024 (0.270)

MAME4droid 2024, developed by David Valdeita (Seleuco), is a robust port of the MAME 0.270 emulator created by MAMEDev and its contributors. This powerful emulator is designed for high-end Android devices and supports the emulation of a vast array of arcade games and systems, including classics like ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC, MSX, and many more. With the capability to run over 40,000 different ROMs, MAME4droid 2024 offers an extensive gaming experience.

It's important to note that MAME4droid is strictly an emulator and does not include any ROMs or copyrighted material. Users are responsible for providing their own legally obtained ROMs. Additionally, MAME4droid is not affiliated with the MAME team, so any questions or issues should be directed to the developer, David Valdeita, and not to the MAME team.

Given its basis on the latest PC MAME version, MAME4droid 2024 requires higher specifications than its predecessors. Even with a high-end device, users should not expect all modern arcade games from the 90s onwards to run at full speed or with complete compatibility. With such a wide range of supported games and systems, performance can vary significantly, and not all titles may run perfectly or at all. Users are encouraged to understand that supporting over 40,000 titles fully is an immense challenge, and specific game support inquiries cannot be addressed individually.

To set up MAME4droid 2024, users should place their MAME-titled zipped ROMs in the /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.seleuco.mame4d2024/files/roms folder after installation. It's crucial to note that this version of MAME4droid is compatible only with the '0.269' romset and not with romsets from older versions.
