do not extract the ROM zip files.. just leave the ROM zip files in /home/pi/emulators/mame4all-pi/roms.

Sound Issues - Metal Slug Series (MAME)
@husar.. I believe PiFBA is already available if you use PiMAME 0.78 or later. The default PiFBA ROM folder is /home/pi/emulators/fba/roms.

I also have issues with GNGeo.. so I use PiFBA instead, it is awesome with NeoGeo ROMS.

Cannot get the games to show
Mr. Google is your best friend... :) MAME4All is running "ROM sets Mame-0.37b5" and AdvanceMAME is running "ROM sets 0.106", the ROM zip file name must retain the correct format. This discussion is also very useful for your ref…

PS2 USB adapter works GREAT..!
when it boots, Raspbian recongnized this as Twin USB joystick automatically. By default I don't think it will work as a mouse, but you can try http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2029023 or here http://askubuntu.com/questions/114895/how-ca…

What is the default speed (overclock)
By default pimame is not overclocked. But since mame and FBA needs a lot of processing power, it is suggested to overclock as below, edit the /boot/config.txt arm_freq=900 core_freq=300 sdram_freq=500
