Mame Extra to run only 3 games (Runs Edward Randy, Robocop 2 and Wrestlefest)
How did you get wwfwfest to run. I've tried so many roms, I just get a blurred screen.
Can you re-share your link?
THANK YOU!

Thank you, that's exactly what I was looking for.Info on this topic is terribly outdated
use mame 2003 plus
plugins can be configured to use their own .cfg's, so you don't have to worry about version conflicts anymore.
huge compatibility
Many thanks Sonic - I had no idea about the different types of ROMs. I downloaded my ROMs more than a decade ago so I wouldn't be surprised if they are the wrong type.
And thanks for the screenshots - I'm going to redownload and organize my ROMs in the same way.
how did it go?
Why are you still necro-threading this?wait, arent cps2 roms supposed to be zipped?
its out of the faintest of hope, cps 1 and 2 roms (that and space invaders) will not run for me and i genuinely cant figure out whyWhy are you still necro-threading this?
I know this might be an aged thread but it ranks high on Google search for a compatibility list for MAME 2000 core for RA Wii.
Here's a sheet I did for it - it's good for the 1.4 and 1.5 releases.

As observed by myself and others, a lot of games have a graphics garble problem, but there's still loads that work great.
I've documented what I could find where there is an overlap with FBA, and a recommendation for what you should use
As a general rule I think MAME 2000 is best for golden age games, including some great and unusual mid to late 80's Atari games, and FBA best for mostly late 80's thru 90's.
An added complexity: RetroArch 1.4.x and 1.5.x on Wii right now have an audio problem with the CPS2 and Neo Geo cores.
So... if you want the normal audio for those... you'll have to use 1.3.6 release (or earlier)... which doesn't have the MAME core included.
Until they fix the audio bug, I tend to swap between versions using custom paths on SD:
sd:/apps/retroarch-wii-1.3.6
sd:/apps/retroarch-wii-1.5.0
and I edit the app icon to watermark the version onto it so make it easy to spot on the HB channel.
You'll have to wipe the config files each time you switch to a different release.
I also find it best to sort out the roms from their parent romsets (FBA 0.2.97 and MAME 0.37b5) into dirs for loading by varying cores
sd:/retroarch/roms/FBA-CPS1
sd:/retroarch/roms/FBA-CPS2
sd:/retroarch/roms/FBA-NeoGeo
sd:/retroarch/roms/FBA-bigcore
sd:/retroarch/roms/MAME0.37b5
sd:/retroarch/roms/MAME0.37b5/samples <= put your samples zips here, works great
By the way, if you want the compatibility list for FBA for RA Wii, here it is:

Kudos for Beerbarian's lists! I plan on fiddling with GameCube FBA, so maybe I can add some more/new info to the list. I guess for the MAME list this one is more recent: https://gbatemp.net/threads/mame2003-compatibility-list.551556/ (but unfortunately not a google doc yet). Or is there an other compatibility list for FBA as well?Info on this topic is terribly outdated
