Quality stuff! ...if only the psp mame was as advanced (or even had the memory) to rival this GP2X version.

I hope this does get some sort of port to the PSP - via TTYman. :)

You guys are very lucky having newer titles such as Sunset Riders and Parodius emulated.

It continually amazes me the quality of emulation, homebrew and ports on the GP2X blows away almost anything the PSP has.

I'm not a coder so I can only speculate that it's either the open environment of Linux or the RAM factor (64MB vs 32MB) that contributes to this. *shrug*

Either way I will always own and rely on the GP2X for my homebrew and emulation needs - and maybe a Pandora when it releases! :)

I wouldn't say that the GP2X blows away the PSP for emulation, but sometimes it does have some nice things that aren't on the PSP. This MAME is amazing and this new version is just going to get better. Franxis finally got the hard stuff done and has been doing fixes like crazy. Now he can concentrate on drz80 optimization/compatability and adding new games and fixing recently added games. I'm sure this will eventually get ported to psp. I am sure a lot of the newly added games would only work on a slim psp though. I think the recently added Konami games would need the extra 64 megs of ram. Anyways anyone with a GP2X that hasn't downloaded this yet needs to seriously do so. How can you not play Simpsons, Sunset Riders, Aliens, Parodius DA, or TMNT Turtles in Time on the GP2X.
