    First up, do you have the BIOS romset for those games? I believe those games utilize a specific arcade machine that has it's own BIOS to run. BIOS romsets (& related files) are typically excluded from game romsets because multiple romsets may use the same BIOS romset.

    Second, those games may be too "new" or technically demanding (requiring more RAM than the Wii has) for the WiiMAME to properly run, so they may be excluded from the supported list.

    It may not be the answer you want to hear, but it's the most probable explanation for your issue.
