+MAME stands for Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator. When used in conjunction
+with images of the original arcade game's ROM and disk data, MAME attempts
+to reproduce that game as faithfully as possible on a more modern general
+purpose computer. MAME can currently emulate several thousand different
+classic arcade video games from the late 1970s through the modern era.
