Mame for Series 60 Tips

Trying out EMame on the N-Gage I stumbled across a couple-three tips that I thought useful enough to pass along to get you gaming.

* To get those of-course-legally-acquired ROMs �over to your Series 60, send them via IR, Bluetooth, or email, drop them onto your MMC card via a card reader/writer, or, if you're N-Gage'd, USB them over.

* Don't bother unzipping those gamename.zip files; EMame can deal with them quite nicely as ZIPs.

* Drop the ROMs into C:EmameRoms or E:EmameRoms , the latter preferred since you'll have more room there. If you've IR/Bluetooth/emailed them over and they're sitting in your Messaging inbox, use Forward's Options > Copy file to move them into place.

* To have EMame find your ROMs, launch the app and select Options > Scan for games. To get to the list of your installed games at any point thereafter, select Options > Installed games.

* Some games will ask you to type an "OK". Texting in 6mno 5jkl won't work. Simply press left and then right on your handset's joystick. (ta, Ewan )

* On the N-Gage, the 5 and 7 keys are mapped to Button A and Button B as expected.
