Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator

It will run the original code of old arcade games,
It is freeware, but requires dumped roms of the game you wish to emulate
(possibly abandonware ??? )

see http://www.mame.net/ for details and

Mame32 (includes nice windows interface etc) can be found here

It's one of the best arcade emulators, in other words it lets you play
exact replicas of arcade games in your PC. More information here:
