For ethernet and lan, this would require more than one computer.

In theory, one could connect more than one computer using MAME to link these Seattle and Vegas games for they use the same Ethernet controller. These Seattle and Vegas games use a crossover ethernet cable to link as opposed to a standard one so it's unknown if a standard one would work on two computers.

I ask if linking these ethernet connected games are possible on a single machine running two MAME instances.

One exception currently is War Final Assault which has its ethernet controller communications hacked out otherwise the game boots in an infinite loop trying to look for another machine. Attempting to enter network test in test mode will freeze the machine. Someone needs to verify what happens if you insert a crossover cable in a War Final Assault machine without another machine connected and see what happens.
