You might not be aware but in addition to creating these videos, running EmuMovies and working on the HyperSpin website I also do a weekly podcast called Tales From the Crate. It's not video game related but we focus On music, Beer and Vinyl and being a little crazy. To get noticed on iTunes really takes a grass roots effort if your not already famous and I am hoping to leverage the user base of this community to jumpstart the show. Ratings, Reviews and Subscriptions really drive the rankings on itunes. All I am asking is 30 seconds of your time. If you have an iTunes account if you could at least rate the show and subscribe I would be eternally grateful. If your feeling …

Hey guys, I'm in the process of putting a computer inside a SNES case. This is my motherboard http://www.zotacusa.com/zotac-ion-itx-a-series-ionitx-a-u.html Space is very limited and I'm having to wrap a cable around the big metal heatsink in order for it to fit. My question is... Is this dangerous in any way? The cable isnt touching the fan.

When I'm in windows it works fine the mouse cursor go all over but when I'm in a game like golden tee or world class bowling it will not go horizontal. They say to make sure the horizontal disabler button is not being pressed in and it is not. It worked fine the first few days I had the Tanksick but now it is not. Any ideas? I'm using MAME32 and I also tired in MAME 148u5 the trackball does not go horizontal on ether either. Thanks!!!

I bought a mame cab that's already been built. Everything.seems to work fine acept my track ball moves my cursor left to right no problem. Up and down I can barley get it to move where I want it to go. If I plug in a regular mouse I can move cursor with no problem. Is my trackball broke?

So this had me going for awhile, but apparently LCD TVs can suffer from severe controller or input lag. I thought it was my Logitech F710 controllers, but when hooked up to my monitor, there was no lag. Someone also suggested HDMI lag, but I was hooked to my monitor via hdmi, no lag. I only had it when connected to my tv. So I did some research and found this excellent thread: http://www.avsforum.com/t/1131464/input-lag-wars-post-your-input-lag-results-of-your-lcd-display-here-for-reference I've heard of the "game mode" on tvs, but thought it just changed the look of the picture. But the real reason for that mode is it turns off all post processing, which is what causes…

Hi guys so i looked on the net last night and i looked for a arcade screen saver of some sort and i found something really amazing made by Tom Speirs imagine your screen saver being the arcade right in your posesion well that dream has actually happened heres the news MAME Screensaver is a Windows screensaver for MAME. It allows you to run MAME as a screen saver, randomly playing games at intervals you specify. Its simple to setup, configure and simple to use, and works just like any other windows screensaver, except when your screensaver kicks in it will randomly and continuously launch MAME games. With version 0.5 you can play music from a folder while the scre…

after configuring Hyperspin with load of emulators have any of you other guys started collecting old retro consoles again? Since playing games on my Retrocade I have started scouring ebay for bargains in the retro console / computing departments. after all i find playing the game is far better on the original system, than on an emulated one... I currently have picked up the following systems: Commodore Amiga 1200 (+ internal CF card loader) Commodore 64 (+ external SD card loader) Microsoft Xbox (modded & HDD) Nintendo 64 (+ Everdrive SD Cart) Nintendo Gamecube (modded) Sega MegaDrive (+ Everdrive SD Cart) Sega Mega CD Sega Dreamcast Sega Saturn Sony PSO…

Hey, folks. Been a while. Put together a new rig, and have been doing a fresh Hyperspin setup among other things. I have updated to the latest version of MAMEUI and its ROM set (148u4). I noticed my Neo Geo games are running in Japanese mode (launching as Puzzle Bobble instead of Bust-a-Move for example). I remember fixing this before, but I can't remember how. I thought I just right-clicked a Neo Geo ROM and selected "Properties for neodrvr.c" and it was in there somewhere, but I sure can't find it. If someone could jog my memory, I'd appreciate it. -MW

I'm not just talking about who you like either. I mean, if you were to load up a fighting game which character do you use to dominate with? Any game any character, it just has to be characters you use. A top ten list would be nice but any amount is good. My list: Scorpion Sub-Zero Wolverine Akuma Ryu Blanka Necrid Spider-Man Lui Kang Sabrewulf

Hello to everyone I'm new to the whole hyperspin and don't have anything bad to say about it with this being said on to what i need help with. On the MAME wheel how do i get rid of duplicate games? Also when i get rid of these said duplicate games, will the themes that i have still be on the wheel? Or will i have to re-do the themes? I also have problems with NESTOPIA i downloaded the newest version placed it in the emulator file, made its own ROM directory but it will not play games. ...I I have watched viedos on youtube and this website on setting up NESTOPIA yet i still cant get it to work. Is there something i have to do with hyperlaunch? If so can someone post…

I am wanting to order a USB snes controller. I know the top of the line is from retro USB, but they seem to be sold out, and I don't have the tools for the do it yourself kit. Looking on amazon no e of the controllers have good enough reviews for me to trust buying any of them. Can anyone help me out who may own another brand or knows where I can get a good one? Thanks!

I have seen in past threads that there was some discussion (and reluctance) on cross-platforming HyperSpin over to Linux base OS. I have been programming linux servers and OS for some years now and have found that there has been great leaps in Linux foreign OS compatibility that would not only support HS system files, but also would make HS capable of running at peak emulation (i.e., no latency, lag or emulation glitch in as far as the rom is complete and functional as purposed) on legacy hardware! This means that HS patrons could use single core systems (like Dell Dimension 1100, which you can buy at nearly $10 a piece) with basic video output for their builds, have full…
