Final Burn Alpha supports * [[DICE]] is made for emulating old arcade machines from the early 70's at a few boardsvery high level of accuracy. Since these machines had no CPU, such as Neo Geothe emulator instead emulates discrete logic components in the circuit board. This method is very system-intensive, Capcom CPS1-3 and getting full speed requires at least a few others. It is very good for mid-range gaming PC along with the boards it supports. Rumor has it that Neo64-Geo X system in fact uses FBAbit version of the emulator.

Updated MAME, DEmul, DICE, Raine version. Added download link for Final Burn Alpha, DICE, Raine. Removed v from version numbers as it is redundant. Made comparisons section more uniform.
[[File:1676971-ms_pac_man_arcade_machine.jpg|thumb|156px|Example of a Ms. Pac-Man arcade cabinet.]]Arcades are not a single console, but rather hundreds of separate arcade system boards. Most arcade emulators focus on emulating many systems in one program, with some focusing on a few systems, and others attempting to emulate every system.

===Comparisons===
* [[MAME ]] is very extensive, with the majority of arcade system boards from the 70's, 80's and early 90's supported. Do not expect support for more recent boards, such as atomiswave. MAME focuses on [[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. There are many MAME front-ends available. * [[Final Burn Alpha]] supports a few boards, such as Neo Geo, Capcom CPS1-3 and a few others. It is very good for the boards it supports. Rumor has it that Neo-Geo X system in fact uses FBA.
