UNOFFICIAL Mame78 Standalone Emulator: Classic MAME on PS3 - Want to relive the glory days of MAME arcade games? SLTCardsWS has a brand new project for you! Check out this awesome standalone emulator for CFW PS3.
Not too long ago, an app called RetroXMB was leaked to the community. For those that don't know, it allows us to embed emulation cores into our favorite ROMs so that they can launch straight from the XMB. Because the leak was only a beta, one of the most annoying bugs was that the included Mame78 core failed to function. To fill in that gap, one talented scene developer has released an unofficial standalone application using an updated version of the broken source. See more info on its development below!
Basic Usage:
MAME romset 0.78 is required for best performance.
At first screen of MAME agreement when ask to type OK, Move Left Stick - Left to Rightto signal "OK"
R3 will access the RetroArch Main Menu
R2 will access the MAME Menu options.
Select in game will add credits to the game.
Notes:
Core is based on v0.9.8 of RetroArch. (not the current 0.9.9)
This is an Experimental Core for the PS3 from Libretro Code Re-depository. (link)

Custom RetroArch Main Menu Wood Background Added in place of default RetroArch menu.
