A few games got removed in 0.172 due to the new source code license. The drivers were skeletonized and the games can't be played, at least not until someone comes in and rewrites said drivers. I recall someone posted a list here recently but I can't find it. I think it was less than ten games that were affected by this, so you should be fine. The roms stayed in MAME, they just can't be played for the moment.
