How can I separate my famicon games from showing up under SNES category?

[Cloudster]

I would like to keep my famicon games in its own category. Right now they're all under Super Nintendo Entertainment System.

Depending on how you imported them, Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) is typically a Platform.  SNES would then fall under the Category 'Consoles'.

What I think you're wanting (needing) to do is have your Famicom games into their own Platform.

If you can somehow manage to select just those games in your SNES platform, you can press Ctrl+E to start the bulk edit wizard.  Follow the prompts and then select to change the Platform and type in the new Platform name ("Famicom" or whatever you choose).

Alternately, remove all the SNES games and then reimport the [actual] SNES games and Famicom games separately into their own respective Platform.

I tried that, and it works, but then Famicom has no icon associated with it.

Glad it worked for you. You're welcome.

 

If you have a Premium license,

• in Windows Explorer navigate to \\LaunchBox\Images\Platform Icons\Platforms\
• Make a copy of "Super Nintendo Entertainment System.png"
• Rename the copy to "Famicom.png"
• Re-start LaunchBox

If you'd rather us a different image, place the image in that folder (naming it appropriately).

 

If you don't have a Premium license,

• you can rename you platform to "Super Famicom" where there's an existing image for that platform.
  • with a Premium license, you could also rename the "Super Famicom.png" file.
