I still remember when I tried MAME on my P75 with version 0.01, getting Pacman to run at 60 fps, was interesting, I had to shut down all the background tasks, otherwise I got about 55 fps. I guess it comes down too, what do you expect for a $35 computer with 512MB of ram? I except to run 80s games on it, off my old TV with an RCA cable. Try finding one of those a modern Video card. I will play games that I can't run on the Pi on my i7.
