MAME4droid 2024, developed by David Valdeita (Seleuco), is a powerful Android port of the latest MAME 0.270 emulator by MAMEDev and its contributors. This emulator brings the thrill of arcade gaming to your high-end Android device, supporting over 40,000 different ROMs. From classic arcade games to systems like ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC, and MSX, MAME4droid 2024 offers a diverse range of emulation experiences. Please note, MAME4droid is strictly an emulator and does not come with any ROMs or copyrighted material.
It's important to understand that MAME4droid is not affiliated with or supported by the Mame team, so direct your inquiries about MAME4droid to the appropriate channels. Given its basis on the latest PC MAME version, this emulator is tailored for high-end Android devices. However, even with powerful hardware, you might not achieve full speed or compatibility with more modern arcade games from the 90s and beyond. With such a vast library, game performance can vary, and not all games are guaranteed to run smoothly or at all. Therefore, kindly refrain from sending support requests for specific game issues.
To get started, after installation, you'll need to place your MAME-compatible zipped ROMs in the /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.seleuco.mame4d2024/files/roms folder. Be aware that this version of MAME4droid supports only the '0.269' romset, not romsets from older versions. For alternative ROM loading options, refer to the in-app help section.
