First off: Do not rely solely on MAME for Model 3. While it has improved, Supermodel is still the gold standard for this specific hardware. It offers better performance, wide-screen hacks, and force feedback support for steering wheels.

The best football (soccer) game of the 90s. The "Ver. 99" update featured lightning-fast passes and crowds rendered as 3D objects, not sprites. Unlike modern FIFA, this is pure arcade mayhem.

The sequel to the king of arcade racers. While the original Daytona ran on Model 2, Daytona USA 2 pushed Model 3 to its limit. The draw distance and 60fps smoothness are phenomenal. The "Power Edition" is the definitive version.

The Model 3 represents the end of an era. Shortly after these boards hit arcades, the industry shifted toward the Naomi hardware (based on the Dreamcast) and eventually PC-based hardware (like the Lindbergh).
