MAME's focus is emulation accuracy, rather than performance. MAME is a fantastic piece of software, that evolved from being a Multi Arcade Machine Emulator into a framework whose goal is to emulate as many arcade machines and vintage computer systems as possible. It is no small feat and this is why MAME is so complicated to use. That's why MAME has been invented: MAME is kind of a meta-emulator, it brings all the different emulated hardwares of arcade machines into one system, making it simpler for the user to play arcade games without any knowledge of the underlying arcade machine on which the games are launched. Imagine you want to play 5 different arcade games, you could have to use 5 different hardware emulators, whereas playing 5 different SNES games will only need the one and only SNES emulator. This page is dedicated to beginners for helping them to easily play arcade games on Batocera.Īrcade has long been the most complicated of emulations due to its very own nature: arcade machines don't all use the same hardware, so they all have to be emulated independently.
