Abdessamad Derraz 09eb7099fb fix: state the arcade versions their code reads
core_version is read at each pin where version_basis says. MAME 2014,
2015, MESS 2015 and CDi 2015 state 0.159 in src/version.c (the libretro
wrapper reports 0.160), MAME/MESS sits on the 0.289 makefile of its pin,
FinalBurn Neo states 1.0.0.03 in src/burn/version.h, FB Alpha 2012 and
its CPS-3 build 0.2.97.30. mame_version of MAME 2014 and 2015 follows,
as MESS 2015 and UME 2015 already said.

notes: |
Frozen snapshot of MAME 0.37b5 via iMAME4All (David Valdeita). Fastest and
least accurate MAME core. Supports ~2000 arcade games from the 0.37b5 ROM set.
BIOS handling follows MAME 0.37b5 conventions. Shared BIOS files are packaged
as parent ROM ZIPs (e.g. neogeo.zip) and placed in the ROM directory alongside
game ROMs. The core searches only the ROM directory for ROMs and BIOS sets.
Samples (per-game WAV files) are loaded from system_dir/mame2000/samples/.
They provide sound effects for certain games and are optional.
hiscore.dat, history.dat and mameinfo.dat are loaded from the ROM directory.
cheat.dat is loaded from system_dir/mame2000/cheat/.
hiscore.dat and cheat.dat are bundled in the core repo (metadata/).
