pinmame is a pain but mame is a piece of cake. Install the Windows 32 or 64-bit version (MameUI), put some zipped up roms in the right folder, boom, done.

Nah, it was some four-player pong deal. But you're the first person I've ever come across who could top me when I said the 2600 was my 2nd console :)

Sony just announced today that they'll be putting the PSN store online so it can do exactly what you've mentioned (a feature I can't believe they didn't have from the get-go...)

- I threw a no-hitter as a kid and lost - 3-2
- Atari 2600 was my SECOND home game console
- I played cello in jr high and high school because I had the hots for the neighbor girl. This venture was unsuccessful, in no small part because she was 4 years older and, thus, we never attended the...
I'm well aware of coding issues, translations from one platform to another, and so on. I do software QA for a living. I understand the process and I understand how business gets in the way of fixing things. Fact is, the game went out in its current state. On some level, that means Farsight...

In general, the mobile versions don't have the color problems that the PS3 version does. The differences in color between mobile and PS3 are pretty stark - I posted some comparisons between real/ps3/android versions of Harley Davidson a little bit ago. The real table and the Android were...
Not impressed. Much like Twilight Zone, the colors in these photos are a mess, with a purple/pink tint to everything. Stuff that should be silver is purple and so on.

That wasn't quite the way I interpreted Farsight's announcements though, given their history, the assumption you made is the one I should have made as well.

Here's the thing - we were told that TZ would be ready in November when the Kickstarter went up. Then we were told that it was ahead of schedule. And now it'll be released two months late? Yeah, the blame is on Farsight - and I'm sure the lighting and colors will still be a mess (on ps3).
