If I understand what you are asking, you can obtain all the information in MAME by issuing this command in a command box:

MAME -listxml > mamexml.txt

The output file, mamexml.txt, will contain all data your desire. Beyond that, you are on your own to make an application that will parse the data contained in that.

it won't contain genre etc. because mame doesn't store that kind of information.

I do wonder about the reasons behind asking this anyway, we already have MAWS which contains more information than anybody could ever need anyway.

But you can't dump that info into a file in one big lump.
