FinalBurn Alpha - what's missing besides MK?
-
FBA is also missing the optimizations of some older games:P
Rtype leo, cadash, ninja warriors, xmen, bucky o hare, to name a few run much faster on mame 2003.
The missing games are just too many to list here. You'll have to compare on your own from compat lists. -
@alrdtakn1 agree, Mortal Kombat, Primal Rage and Killer Instinct on FBA is all I'd wish for.
-
there is a dev working on the driver for the MK games but there hasn't been much of an update on it but he's also working on KI for FBA.
-
Wow I wonder if Mortal Kombat 2 and Ultimate MK3 will get proper emulation through FBA?
I would be elated.
-
If there are working versions for MAME, why is it important that they work for FBA?
-
Not playing on mame either AFAIK, but I'm craving for Naomi games.
Marvel vs Capcom 2, I miss you :'( -
Aaaaand, yes, I know, even if it were correctly emulated, it probably wouldn't run on a RPi3 :'(
-
@thedeathstar because those versions have issues. Mame2003 has a huge sound problem and speed is OK but not great. FBA is just a better emulator and someone could possibly get MK running even better than current RPi Mame.
-
Fba isn't a "better emulator". It does play some things faster and smoother, however, it isn't designed to be as "accurate" as mame is. I like Fba and prefer using it to mame on a lot of things because that "accuracy" is sometimes lost on me. I don't care if a sprite on one stage loads incorrectly as long as the entirety of the game is playable without obvious problems I'm happy. That being said I am content playing the MK games on mame, sound glitches and all (which is why it is listed as non-functional in most lists for mame; once again accuracy) I know I'm in a small percentage but I'd love to play some arcade version primal rage. None of the console versions hold up. I don't that a raspberry pi 3 is to underpowered to do it if it was done in Fba, but I could be wrong.

@alrdtakn1 FBA is more accurate since the emulation is recent and not from 2003. That can be a bad thing if it makes the games slower. It's why I didn't care to jump for joy when the sega system16 games we're added. Too slow. Another example, the konami 4player games and a few others were made unplayable on my 1ghz pi2 when fba2012 was updated to "lr-fbalpha". Neogeo (and cps2 i think), struggled a bit here and there on mame2003 with an oc'd pi2, but perfectly fine on latest fba. On a pi3 you won't notice but it's nice to know so I won't produce more heat than I already am. I don't have an emulator preference since the compatibility is all over the place. I need to use two fba emulators and two mame emulators to play what I want. Scroll up to my previous post for more examples of mame2003 being faster.
I believe there's a bounty for someone to fix the audio bugs in the mk games in mame2003.

I play almost everything on FBAlpha with only a couple games on Mame2003. I am using a standard RPi3.
