I tried to play several games on my 3660, but the only one I played ( and with the normal version of MAMECE3) is scramble... I've downloaded the MEGA version of the program, but the only difference seems to be the longer list of ALL games supported... Some games, like Ms Pac-man, are found by the program, but don't work ( the screen turns blue for a few seconds, then go back to the list). The other games (I tried sf1, puzzle bobble, nba jam) are not found by the program, even if they are supported by this version of MAME- they are in ALL GAMES list- and the right file is in roms directory. Please help me, I'm really hopeless ( just like my english ).

You need to copy the actual game ROMS onto your device. They are not included in any version.
The mega version has more games enabled than the basic version. What this means is that I have enabled the drivers for additional games in the source. When you select show all , this is the games that MAY work on MameCE3.

Be advised however that just becuase a game is listed does not mean it will work or that it will work well. At some time in the future I will clean the list up so that it only shows playable games.

Thank you very much. Yesterday evening I tried 5 more games, and 3 of them effectively work. Tetris is not shown in the list of working games ( the list that appears when I run the program), but if I select it by the list of ALL games, it works (that's strange). The bad thing is that the screen is cutted on each side... is it normal?
