I went to teh main page but there are soo many MAME emus to DL..
WHich one should I get??

Do I need a BIOs file??
If so what is teh name of this BIOs file so I can look for it?

Also do I DL MAME ROMs like teh others or is there some other way to get games?

(Not asking for MAME game sites just if I have to DL them, I will find them on my own if need be)

First of all, I just leave the first question to others who will give their own reviews.

Next question,


Do I need a BIOs file??
If so what is teh name of this BIOs file so I can look for it?
Too many BIOS'es in which you personally have to look for it through Google! (http://www.google.com/)


Also do I DL MAME ROMs like teh others or is there some other way to get games?

(Not asking for MAME game sites just if I have to DL them, I will find them on my own if need be)
Yes, MAME games = ROMs. In other words, no ROM requests. :cool:

For the BIOS question: if you search here (http://www.mameworld.net/maws) for 'bios'. You will see all BIOSes and see which games need them. If you have downloaded for example kof98 you will need the neogeo BIOS. Many games don't need a BIOS, but in this way you can see which ones do :)
