Note that not all ROMs are playing perfectly, so developers also offer a FAQ for game-specific issues. If you'd rather avoid any legal gray areas, MAME even offers a page with ROMs which are safe to download. MAME can then view your ROM and play the game through the user interface or command line.Īs an emulator, MAME can play games from a wide range of arcade systems including Capcom, Namco, Neo Geo and Sega plus old home consoles and computers. Basically, extracting the MAME in a folder and then downloading the ROMs and extracting them into the emulator 'roms' folder. To understand the installation process and how to use the program, consult the MAME documentation of developers.
Your best bet is to enable MAME via the command line regardless of how adverse you are to coding or to download a compatible third-party front end. The emulator has a naked, but confusing graphical interface. MAME is the best way to play arcade games, but it isn't user-friendly.
