Not the normal MAME. It's pure command-line.
MAME32 has a GUI though, and I think it works well enough.

sewercake, you have to buy a MicroSD card. Make sure it's a decent brand (Kingston, Sandisk, A-Data are good; Transcend is not) so things work well.

I've got an M3 Perfect SD personally, but it's bulky, and I think that slot-2 carts aren't going to last too much longer at this rate.

1.51 doesn't really have the new sound core. You'd have to compile from SVN (using zget or whatever you want) to test it, but be warned that it's still buggy. No bug reports are accepted for it either.

I've never finished the first SaGa Frontier. :S I've tried, but I can't bring myself to finish everyone's storyline.

M3 Simply or R4. No GBA support, but whatever. Same with all other Slot-1 devices. They all use MicroSD.

If you do want GBA support, then get an M3 Lite (which uses MicroSD) and a Passcard3 (aka NoPass).

Slot-1 = DS slot, Slot-2 = GBA slot, btw.

Mine's 1680x1050, and some of my friends have 1920x1200. There's LCDs with even higher resolution than that.

I doubt you can see the difference. With CRT I definitely could, but LCDs are a different beast.
And LCDs aren't low resolution...

The only issue left with LCDs is color gamut and black not being black. Both are gonna be improved greatly with LED backlights and localized dimming.

Even with sound taking up CPU due to software mixing (the GBA has only 2 hardware sound channels), that's no excuse. Just look at Payback. Now THAT is a game that shows the power of the GBA.

TOSE ported FF4/5/6 to the GBA. They also did the shitty port of Chrono Trigger to the PS1.

I think the slowdown with the Airship is just a case of poor coding. The GBA can do a much, much better job than the SNES with Mode7.

Wouldn't it be possible to implement a hotkey to switch pads? Just make it so only whoever has control of 1P at the time can press it.

When the recent
problems began with laptop batteries I read about it at
consumerist.com. I own two Dell laptops -- one for my wife and one
for myself -- so I immediately checked out the model numbers and
batteries against dells website designed for the purpose.

It is Dreamcast-based, but there are a fair amount of games for it. Besides, if MAME emulates it, you'll need a 2139847GHz PC to play it.

It's not that easy to find out the original IP of someone doing it, because their IP is never actually going to attack your server. It's not called DISTRIBUTED denial of service for nothing.
