Vectrex Regeneration for iOS - OUT NOW!!!

[Frankie_Says_Relax]

I've noticed similar problems with the iCade Mobile. For example I can't crouch and kick at the same time in Darkstalkers. I'm using a jailbroken device and the iMAME4iOS (uses the most recent version of MAME across all 3 versions of MAME that exist for iOS) and iFBA.

What's interesting though is that I don't have these problems on the iCade 8-bitty (just like the original iCade).

.

I was JUST coming back here to post an update...

so, after giving it a few days and poking around on the web I determined that the iCade Jr. Buttons that show up as "joystick button 1 joystick button 2 joystick button 3 joystick button 4" etc. in the in-MAME button assignment menu (ie the two RIGHT-MOST buttons on the control panel) DO in fact allow for motion in all directions with a simultaneous button press.

I SWEAR I had tried that initially with no success, but I guess I did not.

So, the maximum number of buttons that you're going to get away with on the front panel of the iCade Jr. is TWO if you need simultaneous character movement with the buttons.

Not a total bust after all, and most of the games I want to play on this thing only have 1 or 2 buttons anyway.

If you have one of these just assign Button 1 and Button 2 in MAME to the top right and bottom right button. You can assign coin/start to the left buttons or the buttons on the back.

Also, for those who never got the answer to the question, how is Vectrex Regeneration on iOS with an iCade,

after the most recent update, it's pretty great, functions as you'd want it to and has adjustable joystick sensitivity to compensate for the digital vs. analog.

Though, take note you have to buy the full game (which includes all of the games) to get iCade compatibility.

iCades and similar devices are going for $70 on Amazon now. I'm tempted to pick one up but have a feeling I'd never use it.

That's the problem I've run into with my iCade, I never use the thing. The only thing is I really don't care as I lucked into one on accident mid year at a flea market out west where I was living and I got it for $10. The dude wanted $20 but I asked if he tested it, didn't, and I couldn't so it worked out that way. As it is, my 1yr old girl is just the right height for the two plastic cabinets(mini) it stands upon to stand and use it like a real arcade cab. I don't have the iPad in it but she'll just stand there and move the joystick and smack the buttons a few times for a bit every day which I find worth it.

I know I would use it if without jailbreaking people would literally stop being lazy pricks and add real support. It's nauseating idiots like at Capcom can pop out Marvel vs Capcom 2 and NOT support the iCade arcade cabinet.
