Hmm. I'm going to create a sub-field in my new Games Locator for these. I'm sure people would love to type in 'MM' as what they're looking for and the PHP/MySQL could sort out the rest.
There will be a couple of reserved acronyms, but the ones I see most often will be entered.
POS=Piece Of Crap (not exactly).

The corporation was named Williams Electronics Games (1985-1999)

I did this list for the Seattle Pinball League website. I'll be more than happy to incorporate the rest.
