Erockus Arcade 7.2

MAME is one of the most well known arcade game emulators out there, to the point where there are tools that are created to specifically support it. One of its major drawbacks, after all, is that it doesn't have an interface. There's a chance that more casual users can't use it because of that, so there are extraneous tools to fix that. One of them is Erockus Arcade.

This tool acts as a wrapper to MAME, and enables a ton of different features and options from its interface. Erockus Arcade doesn't require installation - just simply unzip it anywhere you want. You'll need to add a path to MAME to access a few extra features. Selecting a preferred system is among the options you can choose and you have plenty of options, such as Atari, Nintendo or Gameboy. At the same time, you can tweak the performance by enabling throttle, speed, specifying the number of processors and the frameskip.

As you would expect, you can also enhance the video and audio with features such as resolution switching, wait sync, sync, sync refresh, triple buffer, or adjust the sample rate and audio latency. Lastly, you can specify if you prefer using the mouse and keyboard or a joystick.

Overall, this is a fantastic program if you use MAME, as there's just a ton of different things that it does and improves your quality of life significantly. If you found MAME hard to use because of its lack of an interface, then you should give Erockus Arcade a download.
