MAME4droid 2024 (0.270)

MAME4droid 2024, developed by David Valdeita (Seleuco), is a port of the MAME 0.270 emulator by MAMEDev and its contributors. This powerful emulator supports a vast array of arcade games and systems, including the ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC, MSX, and more, covering over 40,000 different ROMs. It's important to note that MAME4droid is strictly an emulator and does not include any ROMs or copyrighted material.

Please be aware that MAME4droid is not affiliated with the Mame team, so direct your inquiries about this app elsewhere. Designed for high-end Android devices, MAME4droid 2024 leverages the latest PC MAME version, which requires more robust specifications than its predecessors. Even with a top-tier device, you may find that "modern" arcade games from the 90s onwards might not run at full speed or be fully compatible.

Given the extensive catalog of over 40,000 supported games and systems, performance can vary widely. Some titles will run smoothly, while others may not run at all. Due to the sheer number of titles, comprehensive support for each game isn't feasible, so please refrain from requesting assistance for specific games.

To use MAME4droid 2024, after installation, you need to place your MAME-titled zipped ROMs in the /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.seleuco.mame4d2024/files/roms folder. For alternative ROM storage options, refer to the in-app help section. It's crucial to note that this version of MAME4droid only supports the '0.269' romset and not those from older versions.
