Sega Genesis. I remember I had some "arcade classics" game or something that had Pong, Centipede, Millipede, Space Invaders and a few others that were pretty neat.

Would running MAME on the Wii be horrible?

You could definitely play Mappy.

Maybe.

Emulation? Soft-modded Wii, no contest.

Console? PC Engine or Sega Saturn I think.

Aside from: >>3134554 Atari 2600 has a few solid arcade ports, NES has some awesome late 80s arcade ports, and TG-16 and Saturn have a TON of 90s arcade ports.

PS3 has a fuckton of arcade collections including all the best fighters ever

I use it because my main emulation on CRT console doesnt do arcade very well (has a filesize limit that leaves half of the neo geo library out)

I like Genesis ports of arcade titles, PS1 and Sat also got some good compilations, specially Namco Museum and Capcom Generations. Other than that, 6th gen consoles are actually pretty good on this aspect, thinking on Sega Ages, Capcom Classic Collection and Taito Memories here
