Emulator support improvements 2: Electric Boogaloo #2409

Open JosefNemec opened 3 years ago

JosefNemec commented 3 years ago

To finish things that were removed from #653 scope:

Adding IGDB data to local emulation database
Choosing emulator dynamically on startup (currently only supported for emulator profiles)
Show available emulators and profiles in game menu
Allow custom emulators to utilize emu database for better game import

Adding IGDB data to local emulation database

Will require search support rewrite on backed, which is ongoing. Will be done via #2939

Choosing emulator dynamically on startup (currently only supported for emulator profiles)

Done for P10.

Allow custom emulators to utilize emu database for better game import

Already done, custom emulators just have to specify supported platforms and those platforms have to have platform specification IDs set.

Show available emulators and profiles in game menu

Removing from P10 since it will require some additional changes related from #2604 first.
