They are roms , which usually (read:always) come zipped.Example:Marvel Vs. Capcom is mvscap.zip.You place them in the rom folder of mame emulator,start the emu,hit F5 for a refresh and there you go.Also you might wanna try to change a few settings (video,audio,controller mapping).

p.s.offtopic:how "new" to the arcade emulation are you? You got 234 posts... :)

First off, WHAT THE HECK (?!?!) are you talking about? Are you looking for the Dreamcast or Arcade version instead as your post doesn't ring any bell on my head. :eek:

Most of the Arcade games will be in zip format. So, don't unzip like the others types.
