Yes, I haven't had the time to add support for the old 'games.dat' format in version 1.0 yet, sorry. ^^;

It will be added in either PR 11 or 1.0 final.

Oh okay, thanks for the info.
By the way, while you're working on it, is there a way to extract the roms from the games.dat file?

Yup, you can use this little tool : http://www.magicengine.com/files/unpack.zip

Create a directory, put unpack.exe and the games.dat file in it and double-click on unpack.exe, this will extract all the roms.
