A new emulator app has finally made its way to the App Store, allowing iPhone and iPad users to play classic arcade games like Donkey Kong and Zaxxon. The app, called ArcadeMania, uses version 0.269 of MAME as its emulation core, providing access to over 5,000 MAME-compatible arcade game ROMS. The app supports game controllers such as those for Xbox One, PS5, and Switch, as well as keyboard support. It also includes features like cheats, save states, and HDR content support. However, ArcadeMania does not come with any ROMs, so users will need to source them from the internet.
To get started with ArcadeMania on your iPhone or iPad, simply download the app from the App Store and follow these steps:
1. Open the app and go to the Menu button, then Settings.
2. Tap Import and navigate to where your ROMs are located.
3. Select the ROMs you want to import and tap Open.
4. Choose the game you want to play from the list of imported games.
You can use the on-screen controls or connect a real controller for a better gaming experience. Insert a coin, start the game, and have fun playing your favorite arcade classics. Remember to exit the current game to select a new one.
Enjoy the nostalgia of arcade games on your Apple devices with ArcadeMania!
