XML is a hierarchical data format, Access is relational tables.
I don't think there's any way to directly import MAME XML into Access.
Have you considered transforming the data from XML to CSV using XSLT?
xml2info has an external XSL file that can be edited to produce whatever format you desire...

Keep in mind that there's no easy way to represent items that have one-to-many relationships like screens or dipswitches in a flat file format.
Take a look at the XSL file included with xml2info for some ideas on how to get what you want.
