      Under "Arcade" games are usually displayed with their full name, such as "Street Fighter Alpha 3 (EURO 980904)" but the game mentioned in the title isn't. This is the only game like this in the list. Is there a way to fix it? Thanks!

        @vegetus Yeah, that's odd. MAME normally takes the zip file name and displays the game name instead. It's just showing sfz2aa for me as well.
        Easily fixed. Just highlight the ROM, press select> edit this game's metadata. Punch in the full name then save.

          @vegetus those automatic titles are hard coded only for a few romsets and haven’t been updated ever i think. you’ll have to manually edit or scrape for any games that don’t show up.
