Can these be played via MAME?

i dunno, but i wish they could! better then paying 150$ for a PS2 game that is hard to find to begin with =/ im tired of checking pawn shops, lol.

oh wait, i dont think this is allowed unless i own the original.. . . in which case, nevermind, even this wont work for me then :(
 
[quote name='InvaderZim']The ROMS don't exist or they just don't run worth a crap on a desktop PC?[/QUOTE]
If I remember correctly MAME doesn't have/won't ever have all it needs to run the roms. It's been a long time since I've looked into it though...

SNK vs. Capcom (Chaos) runs fine but Capcom vs. SNK (Millenium Fight) does not. The others don't either. Marvel Vs. Capcom runs perfect but MvC2 does not.
 
[quote name='simplygriff']Don't they run on a different arcade architecture? Kinda like Street Fighter 3?

They all run off of the Sega NAOMI architecture which is basically what the Dreamcast uses. Hopefully the MAME developers will implement it someday. I never thought we'd see SFIII (CPS-3 architecture) so soon but a few months ago it appeared and plays great!
 
[quote name='aihuman']nulldc works great but youll need dreamcast bios to get it to work. Not sure you can play online.[/quote]

Yeah, I tried setting it up but it was beyond my skills... at least without reading everything and playing around for a few hours... the bios part is where it lost me.
 
I have MVC2 on the xbox.. and i always see a copy in gamestops and EBs for under 50 bucks.. usually once a month (and i only go to those stores about twice a month maybe) I see those "rare" games that people have a hard time finding like BGDA2 and MVC2.. i find them regularly.. just saying..
 
Emulation hasn't quite stepped up to NAOMI yet, nor CPS3. I haven't followed emulation as much recently as I did a few years ago, though. Last time I checked the emu community had a semi functioning Model 3 emulator, but no roms. I think it ran Sega Rally 2 at like 5 fps and you couldn't play it, so SFIII would be hard to do. All of these games are out on consoles anyway, and the Dreamcast versions of CVS and CVS2 are more than adequate ports. I used to have an MvC2 arcade stand-up I bought at auction for $150 with a bum monitor (huge green bias). All I had to do is rewire the CP and tweak the monitor and it played just fine. I ended up selling the guts for close to $400 on ebay. W00T.

CPS3 works perfectly in MAME - SFIII runs great.
 
yeah CPS3 has been emulated and its awesome...

If you want some MvC2 emulated...than you have to go the torrent way or rip the iso off the original disc. than dl chankcast and that way you can play it..but otherwise you SOL on MvC2.

and for the other 2..they havent been dumped or ripped yet...thats probably due to the encryption coding on them....its the same news for the newer Namco System Board games also...Tekken Tag,Soul calibur..etc.
 
[quote name='DaveD']WHOAAAAAAAAA I didn't know CPS3 was emulated in MAME. Did this just recently happen?[/QUOTE]


not in MAME...but in Nebula. I dont think MAME has the power to run it yet.

edit:just read javeryh's comment

i guess it does...my cousin told me he dl'd the newest mame ver.120 and CPS3(third strike) emulated really well on his cpu. I guess i may have to try it out.
 
The one thing that I don't like about MAME is that the developers get anal about the hardware emulation and not the playability of the games. Sometimes updates will break or eliminate some things that are useful in playing the actual games.
