In the original dreamcast list view is it possible to add folders to make sorting your game library easier? Here are some use case examples:

Region Sorting: ├── NTSC-U │ ├── Crazy Taxi (USA copy) │ └── Daytona USA (USA copy) │ └── Who Wants to Beat Up a Millionaire (USA exclusive) ├── PAL │ ├── Crazy Taxi (PAL copy) │ └── Toy Racer (PAL exclusive) ├── JP │ ├── Air (JP exclusive) │ └── Daytona USA (JP copy)

Genre Sorting: ├── Driving │ ├── Crazy Taxi (USA) │ └── Daytona USA (USA) │ └── F1 World Grand Prix II for Dreamcast (PAL) ├── Fighting │ ├── Marvel vs. Capcom - Clash of Super Heroes (USA) │ └── Marvel vs. Capcom 2 (USA) ├── RPG │ ├── deSPIRIA (JP) │ └── Skies of Arcadia (Disc 1) (USA) │ └── Skies of Arcadia (Disc 2) (USA)

Sorting Translations/Romhacks Away from Original Copies ├── Official Games │ ├── Napple Tale - Arsia in Daydream (JP) │ └── Rent A Hero No.1 (JP) │ └── Taxi 2 - The Game (PAL) ├── Translations │ ├── Napple Tale - Arsia in Daydream (English by Cargodin v1.0) │ └── Rent A Hero No.1 (English v1.0) │ └── Taxi 2 - The Game (English - v1.0)

Yes. Feature is started just unfinished currently.

It will be an extension of the genre feature but allow personal arbitrary folders. Hang tight

I tried it out it works fantastic! Thank you for the update.

These are the things I noticed that I think maybe should be changed though depending on your opinion:

1) button B is already busy, it is assigned to launch codebreaker, all buttons already in use 2) I will easily correct it 3) Unfortunately, for this need create new tool and make another user database

  1. I don't know how used the folder feature will be by people other than me, but if there is other people that bring this up maybe exit to bios (Y) could be moved inside the Menu (X). I wouldn't want to ruin usability for other people if you think it is more important that has its own button.
  2. Thank you
  3. I understand, I am curious if that is what mrneo had originally planned on doing.
