Emulator / ROM Game Resolutions ?

[derep]

Im new to emulators, but i've spent the past few days using Mame & Hyperspin

I'm curious are there higher resolution versions of games available for only certain emulators ?
or are there different roms of games that support higher resolutions?

or is everything max 400 x 253 ?

wrong place for this question ?

the games emulated by mame cover a very wide range of resolutions.
For non-3d games, running them at anything other than their native resolution must either be handled by some kind of filtering, or dealing with visual artifacts.
3D games in mame will go through the same sort of scaling issues, but those games which are also emulated by some other emulator that renders 3D using the computer's video card may be able to render the game at an arbitrarily higher resolution, rendering the polygons with more detail than the original hardware could (though textures will usually not be improved any).

You can see a list of resolutions and the games that use them at MAWS:

use the "deluxe search" at the top.

Thanks.
So im looking for what resolutions games were originally released in, know of a source for that ?
Killer Instinct 2 for example, when i played it in arcade/N64 i remember it looking a bit better then the mame version.

KI ran at 320X240

KI is also software rendered by the game code (hardware is just CPU + Framebuffer), so the arcade emulation is definitely correct.

The increased precision of your PC monitor just makes it look worse.
