So, I am using this mod of MAME since it's more stable than MAME Wii 1.0 https://gbatemp.net/threads/unoffic...wiimote-wiiflow-10k-games-support-mod.637592/ but there are some roms that won't load. I get this screen which says "the game is missing one or more required ROM or CHD images"

Does this mean that these roms are incompatible?

It seems that it is not compatible with Mame Wii. I tried with different ROMs and it does not work.
 
Does this mean that I need these roms from a different romset?
Yes, you should figure out which version of official MAME this port is made out of - apparently that's 134 which would be relatively close to 139 aka "mame 2010" - and use roms for the same version* :)

* if you know the details you know that roms don't really have a version, but the various versions of MAME require the best known dump at the time they were made

(The even better solution would of course be to use the current version of MAME, but apart from requiring someone to actually put in the porting effort, it would likely perform appallingly on many titles - accurate emulation has a cost in time & memory!)
