SDLMAME is the [http://www.libsdl.org/ Simple Directmedia Layer] [[port]] of the [http://mamedev.org/ Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator]. MAME has the ambitious goal to make it possible to archive all arcade machines by creating working hardware emulators to host all the the game code, or ROMs, that these machines employ.

==Project Status==

The SDL variant of mainline, modern MAME is currently being [[port| ported]] to Maemo 5. For MAME for earlier Maemo versions, see [http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/xmame/ XMAME].At this point, MAME is only available in [[Extras-devel]], due to its incomplete state. For example, it might occasionally lock up your phone. There's no ETA on a completed version due to the huge scope of the project.

See [http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=42824 the Talk thread] for discussion of the progress. Also, you can help out a lot by designing keymaps and other settings for your favorite ROMs and sharing them. For example, portrait mode via rotation (in the settings, push the volume control) is available for games that orient that way, but special consideration of controls are required. Doing the footwork for this kind of thing will greatly help out because the maintainer has neither the time nor the inclination to do this for all ROMs.

Available tools are the settings in MAME and the settings in Accelemymote, which controls the accelerometer input as joystick events.

==ROM Directory==

ROMS go into any of the following folders:
* /home/user/MyDocs/roms (This is roms in N900 when mounted via USB mass storage)
* /home/user/roms
* /media/mmc1/roms (a roms directory on your microSD card)

==ROM Status==

Remember, for the sake of organization:
# Add games alphabetically and in the appropriate category. 
# Make sure a game doesn't already exist in a different category.
## If a game is already in the list and in the same category as you would put it, make it '''bold''' by adding triple single quotes on either side of the name to indicate confirmation by a second tester.
## If the game is in a different category than you have it, move it to the Mixed Reviews list and indicate next to it the two conflicting experiences. 
## If it's already in the Mixed Reviews list and you confirm one of the previous reviews, move it to that list.

Thanks for your help maintaining this list!
