Anyone run MAME on a Raspberry Pi 3?

There is no signal conversion on that cable.

There is a notable difference between composite and S-Video.
S-video splits the video signal into luma (B&W) chroma (color).

Whats all the inputs you have on your CRT Display?

I know.

It’s not a PVM or arcade monitor or PC monitor or HDCRT. It’s just a Sony TV I got from goodwill for 7.99$. So you get S-Video.

I find it extremely strange that you can actually use a 3.5mm jack to composite video, and that this would be what the Pi is equipped with lol. Whatever. Honestly composite video is just fine, I’d prefer S-Video or better but whatever.

And the SNES version of the game has inferior sound and graphics to the Arcade.

Depends on how you look at it. I’d argue that the SNES version of Turtles in Time is one of the only konami arcade ports that is superior to the original arcade version with all things considered (extra levels, mode-7, tighter controls, etc).

True, but besides the point I was making here.

I know. I’m just a sucker for talking about Turtles in Time whenever it’s brought up.

Don’t get me wrong I prefer the SNES port for content and better game play.
The Arcade game had better sound due to arcades being able to afford more advance hardware.

The point I was making when an Arcade emulator butches the sound so bad, you are sound wise better off with the console port.

First off I just loaded Turtles in Time into lowly Mame (or whatever RetroPie uses, but I’m pretty sure it’s Mame), sounds great.

The Arcade version doesn’t just have better sound than the SNES port.
-Arcade version has fully voiced cutscenes, SNES has text bubbles
-All bosses have speech, midbosses too, and the turtles themselves. This is almost all cut in the SNES port.
-Arcade version has way better animation. SNES is very choppy by comparison.
-Arcade has bigger characters and enemies.
-Arcade is higher resolution
-Arcade has dozens of on screen enemies at a time. SNES has a character limit of just 4. You will never see more than 4 foot soldiers on screen, and if you get a mix of foot soldiers and mousers you will experience sprite flicker or slowdown or both.
-And the big tamale: Arcade is 4-PLAYER SIMULTANEOUS CO-OP!! Come on that’s the star of the show in games like this!
-Way more action. Even if you’re just doing 2-player, you will get 10 or more on screen enemies and awesome carnage that is what beatumups are all about. The SNES feels so slow and boring by comparison
-Real sprite scaling when throwing enemies
-Better graphics in spots like how the enemies explode
-Pizza Power intro song, cut from SNES
-Way beefier sound with punchy bass and awesome, toned down and muffled on SNES

Here’s what the SNES version has going for it:
-Stages are lengthened
-1 new stage (the technodrome) one slightly reworked stage (Sewer Surfin’ has a boss now) and 4 new bosses (BeBop and RockSteady on the pirate ship, Slash replacing the cement monster lol, Shredder in the Technodrome, Rat King in Sewer Surfing). This is awesome but does it make up for what the snes lacks otherwise?
-reworked gameplay. It’s not better or worse, just different. Specials now drain health and the way you hit enemies puts them into a longer stagger.

Arcade all the way and it’s not even close. It’s still a great port but that’s just how it was, Arcade machines had big roms and powerful hardware, home consoles especially not the SNES can compare to even the older Konami TMNT hardware.[/details]

Got me there. I must’ve had my memory of Arcade Turtles In Time tainted by that weird 2.5D remake a few years ago. Also, I could’ve swore there were more levels in the SNES version besides the technodrome. Time to replay lol. I remember back in my gradeschool days in the early 90s how shitty it was that more konami arcade ports never made it to the SNES (Simpsons and X-Men notably) and was absolutely floored when I got Turtles in Time in my grubby hands.

Cool new Pi 3 case for NES fans available on amazon. Looks a little better/cleaner than other efforts i’ve seen:

Does anyone have Spatter house on the raspberry pi? So far I have Concord everything I’ve wanted in roms except for this one specifically

Wrong place to ask for ROMs. EmuParadise is a good place to check out.

Whoops question came out wrong. Has anyone had success getting this Game to work for them? Which version of mame does this work on for you? If answer if yes

[jopamo]

What version of MAME are you running? Are you sure that the ROM is compatible with that version of MAME?
If not you can run the ROM through Clrmamepro to bring it into spec to load. There are numerous guides online on how to use clrmamepro.

Hi,
about RPi and CRT TV or Arcade monitors, maybe you could find interesting this tutorial (still w.i.p.) that I’m writing about getting (almost) pixel-perfect video modes on Raspberry Pi and AdvanceMAME.

One is Neogeo MV-1FZ, one RPi 3 (both on my Sony Trinitron):

Not sure how old this thread is but, i use Recalbox on my Pi 3 and run Mame Great! Pretty much anything 2D you can think of, including CPS3. Plus NeoGeo. But no 3D stuff like Rival Schools or Tekken (Recalbox does however, run PSOne to near perfection. So 3D arcade ports of those games are excellent).

Anyway, i love the Raspberry Pi! It’s like a Green Lantern ring. In the hands of the inexperienced and unimaginative, it’s not that great. But someone that knows how to get the most out of it? And you have an all-in-one retro powerhouse!

Also Recalbox > Retropie. All day. Everyday.

Whoops question came out wrong. Has anyone had success getting this Game to work for them? Which version of mame does this work on for you? If answer if yes

I have all the Splatterhouse games running perfect. On Arcade/Mame, Sega Genesis, TG-16, and NES.
