MAME v0.185 is released. MAME stands for Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator. When used in conjunction with images of the original arcade game's ROM and disk data, MAME attempts to reproduce that game as faithfully as possible on a more modern general-purpose computer. MAME can currently emulate several thousand different classic arcade video games from the late 1970s through the modern era.

What's news in MAME:

[Nathan Woods] * Example: 'mame -whatever nes' would previously be reported as "Unrecognized argument: nes". -Refactoring in response to MT6531: [Nathan Woods] * Exposed emu_options image and slot selections as maps, store data that persists across sessions here rather than subverting core_options. * Overhauled various implementations of get_default_card_software(). -Fixed out of bounds issues in NeoGeo memory access.
