Different 3d "boxes" for different game types. #440

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

It would be nice to use nes/snes whatever style boxes for virtual console 
titles so unmodified artwork could be used.  The console type can be determined 
by parsing the game's titleID.

this wont happen unless we ever add listing roms in a coverflow to pass as args 
to an emulator.  VC are NOT the original console software, they are wii 
software.

With all due respect they are the original console games.  The roms are 
contained inside the wads!  The only difference is vc titles use a custom 
nintendo-made emulator instead of a homebrew emulator.

Also, again with all due respect, nintendo doesn't release cover art for 
downloadable titles but cover art does exist for the original titles.  It's 
just a practical thing to do so that we can get artwork for all titles easier.

I was suggesting this in preparation for passing arguments to an emulator btw. 
;)  It just makes sense to do it on lists already implmented first.
