Just did that on my RP4 today (fresh install from your 4.7 image, not trying the new 4.8 I just noticed today yet until bugs are worked out) and it's STILL giving me a 2 year old version of mame2003... Nov 2 2020, 1.8.8.

4.7 release date: 2nd nov 2020

Sorry, missed your post when I replied earlier. So updating 'from source' does NOT give you the newest version? I thought that was the entire point of updating from source like I just did?

1.8.8 is the retroarch version. retropie locks to a tested version of retroarch, so to update it you first have to update the retropie-setup script - option S here:

then update retroarch in packages > core > retroarch (update via binary or source)

the style of the menus depends on the version of retroarch AND the version of mame2003, but i imagine your version of mame2003 is now up to date. verbose logs remove all doubt and tell us all the versions involved.

This (talking about the RP4 still) also definitely updated since launch of 4.7, no matter what that date says. Like my original post here was about, complete with screenshots, this game wasn't working on the Zero 2, but WAS working on the RP4 (4.7, updated to 4.7.3ish, with 'from binary' mame2003). Like I just posted about, when I updated the RP4 'from source' earlier today (running 'update retropie setup script' first), it now has the same graphical glitches the Zero 2 has... so now I'm completely and utterly confused... ;)

i don't know about the emulation capability of mame2003 so i don't know, but it sounds like the current version has some glitches. you should supply a verbose log to see if there's any clues: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Runcommand/#launch-with-verbose-logging
