many people use baseline MAME, and may not know to 'turn on' save states. As it's an option in the UI versions (has been for aaages), it's PNC.
Save states is a mixed bag. It'll keep high scores up between game loadings, unless you reset (F3) the game. The current implementation apparently supercedes high score support, so resetting the game will lose the score.
Also, occasionally an issue with a game will be at least perpetuated by it's sta file, where in that will have to be deleted, often fixing the issue.
I use both because I like to see the score, and like the game to return the place I left off last.
Scifi frauds. SF illuminates.
