Even in a PC you'll need a decent processor, at least if you want accurate emulation. Until someone finds a miraculous optimization shortcut in KI's hardware emulation, I'd say yes, it's currently impossible in this hardware.

a hacked original xbox could run it pretty well on a humble pentium 3:

...because there's an x86 dynarec which helped massively. however, MAME on ARM does not have such a luxury, which I don't see changing.

I guess I'm wondering if there's some database somewhere of arcade games and what their joystick/button layout was. That will help me to know how many buttons I should plan for on each of the cabinets.

can filter by controller number, type, etc.

@djdiabolik yes under input general just map any combo you'd like. I use "player1 start + player2 start + X". Just press all the buttons at the same time when mapping your custom combo.

The home button is not supported.

ok i re install advemame ,play with the video options and cotton 2,groove on fight are ok.

@kounabi22 said in can some version of mame other than mame2010 ,play killer instict 1 or 2:

i try so many from sites

retropie also has a documentation about clrmamepro, which allows to ascertain the romset is compatible with the emulator instead of trying random romsets...

@sirhenrythe5th said in Which Arcade Emulator for RP4 is recommended?:

As the title says: which emulator are you guys prefering on the PI4?
FBNEO is great, no doubt about that one, but which emulator are you using for the rest?

Good question. Hope this helps you:

Let me know if you have questions.

Try to test the encoder using jstest - (see here) - to check if the joystick and buttons produce correct results.

Is there a schematic you've followed to wire the joystick and buttons to make sure they're correctly wired ? Or does the encoder has labels for each connections indicating the correct wiring ?

@gorgar19 said in Arcade cabinet:

it is just a simple editing one line in the config to rotate it but is there any reason for or against doing so.

The reason for would be to have a vertical/upright cabinet I suppose. The reason against it - might have a performance impact.
