do all arcade games work on mame? there are some obscure ones i dont think ill ever be able to play in the wild ever again.

MAME is constantly being updated so this list may not be 100% accurate. https://unmamed.mameworld.info/

You can also consider any game made on PC hardware (Taito Type X etc.) won't run in MAME but may be able to get it running on your PC natively.

No. Virtua Fighter 1 for example is unplayable for 20 years now. However, the latest MAME SOUNDS amazing. They overworked the whole MAME audio engine.

That's been playable for years dumbass. As well as other model 1 games. They even got some model 2 games working

You are a fucking liar. I just talked to one of the mame dudes last week. Virtua Fighter is not playable due to errors in de-capping and reading out the physics chip, and or additional bugs. Fuck off with your bullshit lies.

That is just typical Mame autism where they don't have every single thing dumped so they claim it's not perfect and if it's not perfect it's broken which is bullshit

There are good reason why most if not all MAME devs and contributors up to this point have some background in either informatics and/or electrical engineering. This is complicated big brain stuff and it only gets worse with the complicated system boards or the PCB stacks stuffed with custom ICs.

OP here i see some people online sell pcb boards of old games, if you cant run a game in mame, can you buy the board? What would you hook the board up to to play the game?

seriously some namco and sega games were really rare for some reason.

Because DICE exists and all efforts in emulating discrete logic games is there. If you want to play those games, use DICE.
