Issue description

Hello,

It's not a critical issue, but from EmulationStation, I sort mine (installed) systems by year (from collection settings, systems sort option, set to year, like I've done from my RetroBat on PC). On my RG40XX H + Knulli, I'm using ES-CARBON-THEME.

However, for Arcade MAME, it's indicated as 1997, why this unrealistic year?

In my opinion, 1972 (year of Atari Pong) will be more accurate for arcade.

Please consider this request, thank you in advance.

Regards.

I understand what you are saying but 1997 isn't an "unrealistic year" as the first public MAME release was on February 5th, 1997.

That said I think it should be 1971, as that is the year Galaxy Game (the first commercial video game) was released.
