Yeah, I'm in the same boat.  Games that came out after about 1986 really don't interest me.  Only thing that tempts me to try a new version is the HLSL simulated-CRT stuff.

I'm not buying that 2011 number.  Considering that just over 9,000 games were added in all the years of MAME from 1997-2010 combined, it's hard to imagine actually adding 9,429 in only the last year (unless they, like, added one clone for every existing game, and even then the sheer workload that would be required makes it questionable).

Didn't they add some pinball machine roms?
Knievel:
Ok I'm seeing a pile of Fruit Machine stuff, I'm guessing that's it?

Are these playable via Mame or?

Yeah, 40 gigs for all of them- a bit cumbersome to handle a full set these days.  I'm upgrading to 145 now and it's twice as much time to to everything - 2 hours to compile, 2 hours to transfer files to the arcade computer over the network - it's a pain.

Its Fruitgames and useless junk.  There are reported errors on some games that functioned before.  I stuck with .143.
