We're having this discussion on the 8-bit challenge thread, but i decided to make one for this since some people may not noticed it. The idea is the same as Chinnyhill's league, but only with Arcade (MAME) games.

If there's enough interest the league will start only after the other finishes. Unless the people who want to play the Arcade league are totally different from the ones playing the 8-bit challenge.

I would like to play.

But then I try to play the other one and never manage that either...

I would certainly be up for that. We have to play shmups at least 75% of the time though... :hat:

I'm interested. Not had Mame on my Mac for a while, so which is the best version to be running (ie when did they stop making things work for the sake of 1337?)

I have 3 versions working on my pc just to cover all my bases. It's annoying that not all my favourite games, work with any one of the three!

I'm aware that my last sentence there doesn't really make sense but then again, neither does MAME.
