MAME4droid 2024 accurately emulates classic arcade games and retro systems supported by the latest MAME 0.270 emulator.
Developed by David Valdeita (Seleuco), MAME4droid 2024 is an Android port of MAME 0.270 by MAMEDev and contributors. It replicates arcade cabinets and vintage systems including ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC, and MSX, supporting over 40,000 ROM files.
* IMPORTANT: MAME4droid functions solely as an EMULATOR and DOES NOT CONTAIN ANY ROMS OR COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL.
(DISCLAIMER: This project operates independently from MAME's official team. Please refrain from contacting them regarding MAME4droid support.)
Optimized for premium Android devices, this version utilizes demanding PC MAME architecture requiring robust hardware.
Performance varies significantly - don't expect flawless operation of 1990s+ arcade titles, as compatibility and speed differ across games.
With compatibility spanning 40,000+ titles, results will vary dramatically. Due to this enormous scope, individual game support requests cannot be accommodated.
After installation, store your MAME-compatible zipped ROMs in: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.seleuco.mame4d2024/files/roms (alternative locations detailed in help files).
CRUCIAL: Only compatible with '0.269' format ROMs - legacy versions won't function.
