>Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator

Used to when Nicola S. started the project, but when Micko took over around 2010 or 2011, the source code from MESS had been incorporated to MAME source code because some coin operated games also used some home computer components. It made sense to combine source code of both projects into MAME's source code at the time.

The eventual decision to combine everything and have MAME no longer be of what the acronym stood for was back in April/May 2015...old thread link for reference.
