pinball emulators?
Yeah wine... Well, I knew a pi wouldn't be able to run something like that anyway. I still think ps1 is as good as it gets for now.

pinball emulators?
I thought i read about future pinball and Linux somewhere? Tho i am sure the pi would not run it anyways. Please let me know how it goes krayz. If not just make a virtual pinball cabinet with visual pinmame. I love mine!

0.8b5 NES emulation don't work properly

NES rom manager issue

NES rom manager issue
Hi and thanks for the answer, I just ftp'ed to the NES folder and uploaded .NES files and that worked. However, it will give me black screens just like the .zip files does. Will this give you a black screen as well?
