Sweet. Awesome work as always. Hey I’m positive I’m not the first one to think about this, but is there something holding the importer back from being able to sort games by controller type needed? Such as light guns, steering wheels, dual joysticks etc etc. I know that there used to be a controls.ini project somewhere out there that I think has been abandoned, but isn’t that information included in the mame.xml now anyways? Launchbox is already one of the best ways to filter a mame set for ANY use. I feel like if filtering by controls were possible it would put it above almost anything else out there. I was thinking that if getting super specific with controls isn’t possible, then what about a simple flag of some sort or something in the metadata that indicates if it’s anything other than simple 4/8 way joystick and buttons. For most people that is all they are equipped to use anyways. And if it separated everything NOT in that criteria into another folder or another playlist, then that would make things a lot simpler even. Just spitting ideas here. I’ve loved this software for a while now Jason, and I can’t thank you enough for putting in the work you do.

Oh awesome! I’ll have to try this in a little while when I get home and see how it looks and handles. It seems pretty resource friendly and simple. Should be perfect for my cabinet. Thanks!

Just wondering if anything ever happened with this? I’m searching for a good 4:3 theme for a 25” arcade monitor.

Lol I guess you are right. That didn’t sound to sure did it? Well then yea I definitely think megaman the power battle and megaman 2 the power fighters should be added. Also think power instinct should be on there. Cool fighting game with some unusual double jump mechanics.

Off the top of my head I would say maybe the Mega Man Power Battle games because they are from a cherished series and there are only 2 of them.

This list and the spreadsheet with it is awesome. What I’m doing is working on combining your list, spreadsheet, and batch file with all the games from the all killer no filler list. I’m adding all the games that exclusive to that list and not in yours. While it will make for a larger list, I feel like it’s more inclusive of great games since it’s coming from 2 different communities recommendations. I can’t wait for .200 to come out so I can finalize this and get my cabinet Launchbox finally loaded up and ready to go. Do you think there will be any significant changes in version .200?
