Description:
MAME stands for Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator, when used in conjunction with an arcade game´s data files (ROMs), MAME will more or less faithfully reproduce that game on a PC.
MAME can currently emulate over 2600 unique (and over 6000 in total) classic arcade video games from the three decades of video games - ´70s, ´80s and ´90s, and some from the current millennium.
MAME´s purpose is to preserve these decades of video-game history. As gaming technology continues to rush forward, MAME prevents these important "vintage" games from being lost and forgotten.
