Happy 19th Birthday Mame!
« on: February 05, 2016, 12:22:08 pm »
The first version of Mame was released 19 years ago today. It supported Pac-Man, Ms Pac-Man, Crush Roller, Pengo and Lady Bug. It had no software license and it was expressly written to play the games, not document them.

Acceptance of Zen philosophy is marred slightly by the nagging thought that if all things are interconnected, then all things must be in some way involved with Pauly Shore.

Yes thank goodness for MAME... Aaron Giles and all that helped along the way.  It's because of MAME that I have as many dedicated games as I do. Also because of MAME I've been able to repair / resurrect games that would of been forgotten a long long time ago... in a basement far far away. Ironically enough of some of my games I own a dedicated Pac-Man, Ms. Pac-Man, Lady Bug.. Sold Pengo, never had a Crush Roller though.

     Are you sure its only 19?, They were talking their smack and tooting their horns back in the early 80"s :-\. That was (cough) more like 30 years, (Like I would know).
