I was wondering, what system should I use to play DonDon Pachi on? I'm really not sure.

I can't seem to find it on my MAME set. Does it have a different name or something?

if you have the option to choose from mame, saturn, ps1, and pcb, I'd choose Saturn with a hori arcade stick.

I'd have to agree with CIT on playing Cave's classic arcade shmup PCB that is Dodonpachi. If you got access to a Supergun or a candy cab setup, then a DDP PCB is the purest way to play it as it was meant to be -- with proper arcade controls (either Sanwa or Seimitsu -- whichever best suits your needs) and a true low-res 15kHz analog RGB monitor. ^_~
