MAME List
#363412 - 02/11/17 09:52 PM


Is there an official list of all MAME arcade games (i.e. "Machines")? I am looking for something I can download or copy and paste into a plain text document.

If you download and open MAMEUI, you see a nice list of Machines, but there does not appear to be anyway to copy or download the list.

Alternatively, is there a way to generate a plain text list of all MAME Machines. I know there is the listxml.xml file in the MAMEUI download, but the names of the Machines are buried in code.

I tried using ROMLister but I could not get it to create a plain text list of all MAME Machines. Does anyone use ROMLister and know if it can do this?

In command line:
mame -listfull > gamelist.txt

The resulting text file gamelist.txt will contain the shortname and description of all machines in that version of MAME.

Thanks Tafoid! I had no idea the Official MAME Binary had the option to export the list to plain text. Problem solved!
