MAME
,no edit summary
|fifth = http://mamedev.org/|image = MAME.jpg}} '''MAME''' (an acronym of '''Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator''') is an emulator for arcade game systems. The aim of MAME is to be a reference to the inner workings of the emulated arcade machines; the ability to actually play the games is considered "a nice side effect".
The emulator supports over seven thousand unique games and ten thousand actual ROM image sets, though not all of the supported games are playable. There are many MAME front-ends available.

==Review==
MAME is very extensive, with the majority of arcade system boards from the 70's, 80's and early90's supported. Do not expect support for more recent boards, such as atomiswave. MAME focuses on [http://emulation-general.wikia.com/wiki/Accuracy accuracy] and archiving arcade games, which means it does not always focus on usability for the end user. Only the most up to date romdumps will work in the latest MAME.
