That would be awesome for playing arcade shmups with friends from home, just like back in the day ^.^ Don't take that for fact though, because like i said i've never looked into it. Anyone know anything about that?
There are some MAME versions which support netplay, like MAME32 Plus! Plus! and MAME32k, maybe there are some more... ?

Also Kawaks supports netplay, but you and your friends need a very good internet connection if you want to get a at least playable lag.

MAME 32 for every thing arcade. Used to use Kawaks and was a huge fan, but just started consolidating everything to MAME 32 once I got Raiden Fighters working. :D

I use Gens and ZSNES for every thing else pretty much. Need to get my hands on a NES Emulator for Recca.

Any MAME build that adds Kaillera support will support netplay for MAME. That includes MAME32k and Kawaks, as well as others.
