David, you want to look at UNNA. Deep Green always got good reviews. Plus
there's a host of others (4 or 5 in total, but I haven't tried anything but
DG).

Chris, Mr Tow's Battleship does this.

Anil, Deep Green doesn't support multiple games on one machine, IIRC - it's
the one you play, or none. Don't know about the other chess-engines,
though...
ALL - Any other beaming games?
Would be a nice nMAME feature, too, having two-player console games played
on two MPs. How about it?
Any multi-game chess software out there?
Cheers,
DJV.
