Regardless, wouldn't it still make sense to separate the pinball section from the video section of MAME?
I am looking from the point of people playing the games on a cabinet per say. If you have setup a "PinMAME" cabinet, it is not really useful for playing Pacman on it, so why have (load) all this extra code on a cabinet that will never use it?
Don't get me wrong, I do appreciate the effort that goes into MAME, just not sure I understand the logic behind making it, for lack of a better term, bloatware.
