Problem being that the pegasos is never going to have a cpu module capable of playing the newer games that .63->.67 added other then the newer neogeo releases :(

A G4 module will be produced if there's enough interest, but ONLY as an upgrade,
no systems will be sold with it. Alternatively, there's the 200E upgrade to PegII deal.

I didn't know there was a 3ghz G4 ;) .. If you read up thats the estimated required CPU power to run the newer ( as in original release date and not mame addition ) games e.g. Area 51, Wargods at a decent speed and anything else that uses semi-modern arcade hardware like the jaguar based stuff.

If you have a play with testing drivers you'll also notice that ZN-1 support is starting to happen , it currently only jukebox mode tho but because of mames perfect hardware and not just perfect playability emulation policly you can bet its going to need a killer CPU :(

Yep, the newest games won't run on any current Amiga (or compatible) system,
if I tick out a native Amithlon port.
Damn, someone must port zinc...

Honestly I played ver 0.67 of MacMame on a 600Mhz PowerG4 and it's caplable to amnage EASLY all latest gamez ... so I think that on a 600Mhz G3 there should be non much probs to play all gamez (a part someone reaaly BIG that can requira 1 frameskip).

I very much doubt cruise'in USA or Area 51 and the like ran playable on a 600mhz G4, Remember that Mame doesn't take advantage of GPU's etc and aims for perfect hardware emulation.

IIRC some mame ports have had games removed that use cores written in x86 assembly etc so it could be that your lastest games are KOF2001 and metal slug 3 which use the decade + old neogeo hardware whereas mine are the jaguar based ones implemented recently by aaron giles e.g. Area51, War gods etc :)

MAME 0.67 on the x86 side has a dynamic core which has sped things up immensely, particularly noticeable with games such as Killer Instinct.

Actually , thats not correct , i wouldn't have to own the original machine but a set of the roms / harddrives in the new games. Many of the mames supported by mame are also considered abandonware.

I have access to a cruise'in USA set should the filth ever want to bust me over that particular rom ;) but its not like they're going to find my rom stash easilly anyways its not like they're in a folder called ROMZ on my windows desktop ; i don't even have windows ;)

Well you are my kind of people then, Corpsy. I take back everything bad I ever
thought about you. ;)

Just curious, but if someone were to post satisfactory results on a bunch of
good arcade games on a Pegasos under MorphOS MAME, would you buy a Pegasos?

Nice , one less person to fear :)

I don't think i'd buy a machine just for mame, I don't have excess funds in that degree ;) ... If it ran well on PUP cards I might be tempted to use morphos to play some NeoGeo games :).

On the arcade theme, it'd be nice for shows to knock up a pegasos based mame cab .... I think the pegasos is about the same size as a neogeo MVS board so it shouldn't be hard to adapt the mountings and psu inside one of the lush neogeo cabs you can get for around the £300 mark ( modern cab , not an old plyboard thing ;) ) just add a graphics card with tv out and a jamma loom :D

It only has an R4000/R5000 dynarec, which currently only affects Killer Instinct 1 & 2. You need something like a 4ghz P4 to run the C interpreter core, but only about 2ghz for the dynarec. Area 51 etc only needs about 2ghz, Crusin USA still needs something like 4ghz.

If there is a Power PC that can cope with that then maybe I'll take a look, but I'm not that hopefull. Hower most of the games added recently aren't anywhere near that power hungry. One to watch out for in 0.68 is horizon, it's quite addictive.

Depending on which country you live in, it's possible that even owning the original machine isn't enough. You can't run them on your PC without making a copy & you don't have permission to do that. However it wouldn't be worth going to court as they would throw the case out as wasting time.

If you're going to try to convince someone that you own a legal copy then you ought to have a complete working boardset. As eproms and hard drives can be reprogrammed, the contents are no proof that they are original.

"Many of the mames supported by mame are also considered abandonware."

No they aren't. There are only two games that have officially had permission given by the copyright holder to be distributed. The IDSA are still very active in closing down sites.

Most cabs don't have any mountings, the boards just sit in the bottom.
Nobody would buy a cab that would only take neogeo games.

The jpac/ipac would work quite well as it includes a jamma to keyboard interface ( usb/ps2 ). I wouldn't use tv out as you really want an rgb signal. Some modern graphics cards can be reprogrammed to run at 15khz, although alot of the newer cabs will accept a 15khz signal anyway ( naomi generally runs at 31khz ).

An old Jamma cab is probably the best bet to start with, you can get them less than 100 pounds and it's much easier to justify cutting holes in the control panel to add extra buttons.

I had a look at a bunch of cabs a while ago , and yes most just have the board sitting on the bottom or a shelf. There was however one cab that had some mountings to hold a neogeo sized board , they weren't proper mountings like a PC case by any means but i think the idea was to make the cab tidy and easy to maintain.

It was more of a home user cab then a real arcade cab anyways. Theres probably more NeoGeo specific cabs around with memory card slots etc but I've yet to see another one :\.

Some rom sets also contain decrypted roms where the encryption hasn't been worked out or an encrypted rom hasn't been dumped.

I very much doubt the filth would come to turn you over for some decades old arcade games, their more likely to do you for selling psx or xbox copies or distilling moonshine in your backyard ;)

Thats mainly the new neogeo dumps, because nobody has worked out the m1 decryption yet. Because it's z80 code the encryption is based on only 8 bits & the less bits the harder it is to work out patterns. The decrypted dumps were made by using the original cart ( it has to be able to decrypt it or there is no point ). If you live in America then the age of these games puts them well under the DMCA, so even if you hooked the ROMS up to your PC then it would be illegal.

Getting away with something & being legal are two different things.
There are people that literally get away with murder. Individuals don't usually get sued for posessing illegal rom images, it's usually only people involved with distribution. Web sites generally get a cease and desist order, if they comply then they are usually let off scott free.

Namco sued someone making clone pacman boards & sites that carry anything related to Alien VS Predator have been contacted. Nintendo have been pretty quiet for a while, even though a game was dumped a while back where the only known copy in existance was in their front lobby.
