There is an "-aspect" option that tells MAME the physical aspect ratio of your display device:

"mame pacman -aspect 16:9" should give you a normal view.

But if you lie to MAME and say your screen is narrower:

"mame pacman -aspect 11:9" then you can make MAME stretch it wider.

EDIT: also there is screen_aspect:

"mame pacman -screen_aspect 1:1"
