Ookey, I guess I failed on a few things here, like the obviousness of THIS LINK BEING THE SAME ONE POSTED IN THE ORIGINAL POST.
Doh!
Early morning syndrome. My bad.:D

Not completely.
I also mentioned that there's a MAME port for N64. ^_^
Although, it is obvious that that's not what the original poster was interested in. hehe

Actually, I noted this in another reply as well. I have a Z64 (cart copier/dev unit/backup/whatever) for my N64 and a MAME ROM that one of the earlier N64 hackers put together.
So, N64 did too run MAME.:) Granted it was only 88 games (all the would fit on one screen for a simple text based menu) and it had slow down, but it was definitely capable of running it.:)

You can't play N64 games with MAME. It stands for Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator. Arcade only. kthx:)
Although someone will probly do an N64 emu on the X-Box as well (NEMU probly) since they're already working in Windows and the X-Box isn't a far stretch to port to from Windows.
MAME does support well over 3000 arcade games though.:)
Oh, a more interesting piece of knowledge... There's a port of MAME for N64 too. Only plays 88 games (there wasn't any more room on the menu screen for game names ^_^). It has some slowdown issues and whatnot.
MAME has been running on X-Box for a few months now. I saw some screenshots somewhere from someone that has used the DevKit. Although, they worked for some commercial company. (probly did it on company time without the company knowing it:)
At any rate, it's obviously a sure thing that it's gonna be available to all the hobby hacker/developers as soon as the X-Box is out. There will be so many people doing it just for fun (porting it MAME to X-Box) that a few people will probly give out their changes or maybe even get together on it.:)

Happy gaming!
Link to the developer's site with news/pics back in June of MAME running on X-Box.
:)
It'll be really interesting to see how far XDK priveledged people can get with this before the X-Box is released even.
And yeah, just to add my opinion along with everybody elses posts on here.... MAME KICKS ASS!
