MAME / SDLMAME
About
MAME stands for "Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator". It provides a virtual environment where you can run software written for other platforms, namely old arcades.
SDLMAME has once been a port of the popular MAME™ emulator to the SDL library. It ran on many different platforms, including both 32- and 64-bit Linux. Since MAME 0.137 the SDL backend is part of the main source tree and no longer a port i.e. the project has been merged in the main development branch.
