I just got a new Intel Mac, so I've been getting back into the emulator scene now that I got a computer that's fast enough to play games on. I've been messing around with MacMAME a lot and one thing that I've noticed is that there is a BIG chunk of ROMS that don't even work (like 20-30% of the ones I've tried). I usually get a message saying that required files are missing from the ROMs.
Is this normal for MAME? I haven't messed around the PC version of MAME, so I don't know if that's any different. Are there really that many bad dumps of roms out there or is it just something with the emulator I'm using? Will I have better luck with the PC version of MAME?
