Emulated on MAME

Originally MAME was available under a customer license that enforce availability of source code and no commercial use.

After 19 years of effort, all authors who have contributed to MAME have finally been convinced to license their code as GPL2+ or 3-Clause BSD. Other than now having a FSF and OSI approved license, anyone if free to profit from use of MAME source code in what ever way they can find that does not violate BSD or GPL.

The first Emulated on MAME video game was released on September 1, 1971.

Taito, Sega and Konami published most of these games.
