prove MAME roms actually work

Post by ckm »

I'm not wanting to bother downloading anything that doesn't work properly.

I'm only here because some folks here claim they have working MAME roms,

I'll believe it when they run.


Here's what I've found out thus far from elsewhere. Obviously I'd prefer to find someone that actually is using the latest MAME version that I just downloaded, and not someone saying daft stuff like 'download another version' as that's no different from the runaround by some civil service type of assholes, plus it means they are liars and don't know anything about what I actually asked.

I know it's the roms that are not working, and that's why no-one is giving a truthful or relevant reply. So what I'm wondering about from anyone here who is honest as to their roms working is where they got them from. Not the source in that sense, just -

where do I get roms that actually work.

Information from people who have actually downloaded them and actually played them, please.


games I am wanting -

and here's a link to my proper bought originals game collection, so anyone that doesn't like roms knows that the sole reasons for me even thinking of getting any are the following -

no room for a TATE tv

no room for a cab or cab-like set-up

no money to even consider buying such anyway

importing prices have risen hugely - mostly because the postage rates have gone up so much in the last few months, and also because play-asia stopped doing markdowns, so can't use them anymore to buy from

the roms I want are only availible on PCBs* (except one, i tried to buy it on PC, it was sold out), and as much as I'd love them on PCB, there's no way I can afford even one of them on such

*Battle Garegga I have, but I like it that much I want the PCB versions - there's more planes for a start, than are on the Saturn port

MAME roms are a hoax, they don't work, you can only see the dip switch settings. Next time search moe forums and they'll tell you working roms are a hoax. People download them and collect them, but they don't work at all, I don't understand what the rage is all about.

It's so nice you bothered to read the Forum Rules before posting.
