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.
:
: The ROM images that MAME utilizes are "dumped" from arcade games' original
: circuit-board ROM chips. MAME becomes the "hardware" for the games, taking
: the place of their original CPUs and support chips. Therefore, these games
: are NOT simulations, but the actual, original games that appeared in arcades.
:
: 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. This is achieved by documenting the
: hardware and how it functions, thanks to the talent of programmers from the
: MAME team and from other contributors. Being able to play the games is just
: a nice side-effect, which doesn't happen all the time. MAME strives for
: emulating the games faithfully.
