"ROM Surfing?"
MinerAl:
Cutie Q, Gee Bee, and Bomb Bee. Great early games halfway between pinball machines and Breakout.
Cinemarcade has a little weekly feature where people review weird non-classic games that they have discovered:
The Games that Time Forgot
Not my site, etc., but fun to see!
CustomArcade:
I hate to admit this in a room full of men but "Penguin Wars". Simple To play, Hard to master. Love it and yes I am seeking therapy :)

I use mame 32. So sometimes I hit the sort by year date and look for a game from a certain time period.
Or once I find a game I like, I sort by manufactur. Thats how I checked out the psysiko games. I never tried the random function.
Another way I'll check out new games is by coming here. Frequently a post like this is started and lots of games I haven't heard of get mentioned.

I didn't "discover' this one, I remember it from teh arcades and trascked it down in MAME. if you haven't played it yet, give 'Black Tiger' a shot. One of my fav games for sure.
To get you started, here is a little tip. It's a side scroller (left to right) but at teh very beginning go left and shoot the wall a few times. :)

Pepper II
I can't remember how I found this game, but I am hooked and play it all the time. It's kind of a cross between Qix and Pacman. If you just look at the screenshots it looks very dull. But believe me it is very addicting give it a couple of plays and see.
