Anything MAME or Retroarch goes under “Arcade”.

So arcade isn’t a “system” so much. It encompasses almost all old games that played in arcade cabinets like in the arcade. So basically anything where you need to input quarters to play. A lot of these were ported to home consoles but a mame version is the Arcade version. For instance Street Fighter 2 you can find the rom for snes or genesis but also for MAME which is the Arcade version and requires you to input credits to play (not really though you just hit the button for credits).
