Does the fact of whether the game is a parent or a clone come into consideration when deciding to make available a working game in MAME? Like, let's say a parent game was released by a company. Then years down the road, the company releases a clone of the game that just has minor changes or just a revision that fixes a bug. The MAME team feels that the parent game is old enough to make available in MAME. And the clone game's release date may seem like it's too soon to offer its availability in MAME. But since it's just a clone with minor changes to it, does that play a factor or hold any weight in the decision process of whether to make available a game in MAME?
On a side note... I also find it strange that the company released the "clone" [gtsupreme] 2 years after it's parent Golden Tee 2K was released, especially since they had/were releasing/released 2 brand new games that very same year, Golden Tee Fore! and Golden Tee Fore! 2002.
