MAME staat voor Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator en het programma doet precies wat de naam zegt. Het is in staat om een berg oude arcadegames en consoles te emuleren. Let daarbij wel op dat de meeste ROM-images onder een copyright vallen waardoor je een origineel exemplaar in huis moet hebben voordat je deze mag spelen met MAME. Versie 0.107 is sinds kort beschikbaar met als extra toevoeging "If it doesn't work, it's because you didn't test it enough". De release notes zien er als volgt uit:
NOTE: This is the first full release of MAME with the new rendering system. Before freaking out that things don't work the way you expected, please read the docs/newvideo.txt file that gives some suggestions for how to set up your base configuration. If you still encounter issues, then run your system with the -v option and post about your problem at http://mametesters.org.
