iCade compatibility list/wishlist

> yeah, done all that and still no sound.

Seems that your installation is corrupted. Delete the app, reinstall from the App Store and it should be OK

All this has been done on both my iPad and iPad 2. I've deleted it and re-installed at least 3 times now on each.
And it's not just me having the issue so I'd say its a bug in the game.

The iPad is jailbroken for MAME and the iPad 2 is just standard with latest firmware.

I'm in the same boat. Running a Jailbroken IPad 2 (JB it for IMame and ICade) on firmware 4.3.3, jailbroken with Jailbreakme.

I've also deleted and reinstalled the game. Set the arcade settings to On and made sure Sound was on.

When the ICade controls kick in, the sound kicks out and stays gone no matter the control settings. Game plays fine and seems great for ICade, but no sound. This is a definite bug that correlates to sound and ICade. Only deleting and reinstalling the app brings back the sound..

I'm bummed, because I love space shooters and I want to play this game more than any on my ICade.

But be assured, this is a real bug and not a fluke with the above poster, but repeatable in other IPad, IPad 2's. Mine being one.

I'm sure it will get fixed. I can't wait for it to!

This makes me wonder if there are more games with iCade support we don't know about.

Don't know if this has been mentioned yet but Paper Monsters (by Crescent Moon Games) will support iCade.

It seems very possible doesn't it.

Hi all,

I'm the developer that ported Emerald Mine to the iPad. Just noticed a lot of chatter here about people jailbreaking their iPads just so they can run MAME. I did the samething with mine and then decided to make a version that would run on non-jailbroken devices. I put the entire project up on my website in case anyone wants it. The downfall is that you'll need to be able to compile the code for your iPad yourself (Xcode plus $99/year Dev fee). There's currently no way to distribute the app for non-jailbroken devices except through the App Store and we all know MAME will never make it there.

Of course iCade is still supported and I also added in native support for the iControlPad so you can use the dual analog sticks (Robotron!!!).

This is fantastic! Thank you so much.

I have a question about dev accounts.

I currently have 2 iTunes accounts: one from Canada (where I live) and one from the US (payed using gift cards). I tend to do most of my purchases on the US account. I tried to sign up for a dev account a while back, using my US account, but it requires a credit card with a US billing address.

My question is whether I can sign up for a dev account with my Canadian iTunes account, but continue using my US account to make purchases and continue using content purchased on the US store? Anyone know?

I decided to jailbreak mine in the end. iMame is just fantastic. I'm going to have some hard decisions to make come iOS 5 time
