I found this old mame compilation with 6000 roms in an old Hard drive i have,  but the mame version is 0.122 so i was wondering why there are sooo many mame versions?, and what if i get the latest version of it, i will be able to play these roms? what are the advantages of the latest version? thx in advance.

because mame gets updated itself (the program) and then new roms get added some old roms get fixed... mame is always changing so that's why there are so many versions. as for playing old sets on new mame it's basically like this... some games mostly older ones haven't been changed since the early versions of mame so they should play fine on any version of mame. with a set that old... it's more than likely that many roms will say missing files, etc.

MAME ROMS are so easy to find that you can just download a current set.. I can't tell you where to download one but GOOGLE is your friend to find a torrent.
