Mame's press left then right message
Cananas:
I don't know why this message is annoying for you. It appears only the first time you load the rom... ???.
And yes, MameDevs want this message appear.
botman:
See, "-[no]skip_gameinfo" and "-[no]skip_disclaimer"...
http://www.mame.net/readmewin.html
The default is "-noskip_gameinfo" and "-noskip_disclaimer"
I just wish there was a "-skip_selftest" option to cause games to skip the selftest at boot time (but that would be a little difficult since each game would have implement this by hacking the boot sequence).
Farmboy90:
This is happening actually. It may already be done, I haven't checked in on the thread in a while. But over in the Software forum there was some work being done to document the number of frames each games uses for the boot sequence. That could all be tabulated in a file and then the code could be changed to skip those frames when loading that game.
I think it was going to be in PowerMAME. Not sure of the current status though.

"For MAME 0.79 thru 0.99u2, the last two screens may also be bypassed by either sending "-ftr 1" after the game name, or by adding "Frames to Run 1" to either the mame.ini file or the individual gamename.ini file. (Thanks to Howard Casto for discovering this). "
I'm (NOT) still using this in .104 with success.
