Description
MAME4droid (0.139u1) is developed by David Valdeita (Seleuco) as a port of the MAME 0.139 emulator by Nicola Salmoria and the MAME team. It emulates arcade games supported by this version of MAME which includes over 8000 different ROMs.
* MAME4droid is an EMULATOR and DOES NOT INCLUDE ROMS OR COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL OF ANY KIND.
This version of MAME4droid was designed to be used with dual-core Android devices because it is based on the PC MAME version which requires higher specifications than the older versions.
Even with a high end device, do not expect "modern" arcade games from the 90s and beyond to necessarily work at full speed or compatibility. Some games like Outrun and the Mortal Kombat series are badly optimized and require at least a 1.5ghz dual core device.
With over 8000 games supported, some games will run better than others; some games may not run at all. It is impossible to support such a vast number of titles, so please do not email the developer asking for support for a specific game.
After installing, place your MAME-titled zipped roms in /sdcard/MAME4droid/roms folder.
This MAME4droid version uses only '0.139' romset.

This app is best even better than new mame current app because it has imaged enhancer, don't eat too much ram, few mb size, don't ask missing files, most of the rom works, while current mame app runs roms only few & always has missing files.

Best emulator even in my standard. Reason: has cheats and allows you to set the joystick right from pretty to performance
★★★★★Happy New Year 2022· Feb 19, 2026
Great Mame rom emulator. You can play classic arcade type game such as street fighter.
★★★★★Kaiser Danish· Dec 18, 2025
Excellent emulator for playing old arcade games on the phone. Unfortunately no updates and I would appreciate it if they do.
★★☆☆☆Pulsar· Mar 30, 2026
Don't waste your time. Most games don't work even with reconfiguring controls and downloading the exact version the emulator requests.
★☆☆☆☆Beast T. Cool· May 12, 2026
This is the best emulator. But sadly. This app malfunctioning and requires more adjacent storage management causing a zip rom games got corrupted and when you add games it become unplayable.
★☆☆☆☆Shaun Sebata· Jan 9, 2026
The app comes with no ROMs installed. And it does not give an option to download the ROMs.
