Good tangent! Was it Giant Haystacks but with suspiciously loose skin and a massive zip up his back? If so, that's General Pinochet inside on stilts.

Way to draw attention to our cultural biases in that most of us, when presented with "non-british" musician, will automatically assume American, Curio.

It's not that bad. Once you load the game you want (and providing the control pad is plugged in) it's just a matter of going into the menu and mapping the controls. You'll only have to do this once too.


Huh, so it seems even that's not required any more; MAME comes with a decent enough UI out of the box and it picks up control pads automatically. I haven't tried it with two pads plugged in yet but I'm optimistic now. The only thing I might redefine is the insert coin and 1P/2P start buttons so those can be done from the controller as well.

I'm now slightly sceptical how much time Mrs B actually spent playing Tiger Heli though because she is absolutely goddamned fuck-awful at it.
