Because it's written in java many young devs find it interesting to learn how the emulator works.

Ville's Development Log (2011/03/12)

Some Taito Type-Zero games were dumped last year, and MAME already has a skeleton driver for it. Out of curiosity, I decided to have a look at the system. I spent a couple of hours trying to figure out the format for character tile data, only to realize that it's simply stored as a 512-pixel wide two-dimensional array (duh).
