For CD-based systems it's generally recommended to use CHD files (extension .chd) as this saves space due to compression compared to BIN/CUE, IMG, ISO etc. The CHD format is also supported by most emulators. You can convert to CHD from various formats using the MAME `chdman` utility, for example `chdman createcd -i mygame.iso -o mygame.chd`. Sometimes chdman has issues converting from the IMG and BIN formats, and in this case it's possible to first convert to ISO using `ccd2iso`, such as `ccd2iso mygame.img mygame.iso` or in the case of BIN files `ccd2iso mygame.bin mygame.iso`.

MAME emulation is a bit special as the choice of emulator depends on which ROM set you're using. It's recommended to go for the latest available set, as MAME is constantly improved with more complete and accurate emulation. Therefore the `arcade` system is configured to use _MAME - Current_ by default, which as the name implies will be the latest available MAME version. But if you have a really slow computer you may want to use another ROM set such as the popular 0.78. In this case, you can either select _MAME 2003-Plus_ as an alternative emulator, or you can use the `mame` system which comes configured with this emulator as the default. There are more MAME versions available as alternative emulators, as you can see in the table below.

There are also other MAME forks and derivates available such as MAME4ALL, AdvanceMAME, FinalBurn Alpha and FinalBurn Neo but it's beyond the scope of this document to describe those in detail. For more information, refer to the [RetroPie arcade documentation](https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Arcade) which has a good overview of the various MAME alternatives.
