Is this possible

Deal with it we don't care about people who have OCD!!!! Nah just kidding lol, I was wondering the same. I would like to set the order based by the company; first the Nintendo emus followed by the Sega emus and then the rest. An option to do this would be great.

In the terminal:

copy the es_systems.cfg file from /etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg to /home/pi/.emulationstation
cp /etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg /home/pi/.emulationstation
edit /home/pi/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg with nano
cd .emulationstation
nano es_systems.cfg
from there you can move around the emulators how you want starting with
<system>
</system>
Save and exit and load up Emulationstation!

(I think I have the directory for es_systems.cfg right but I'm half awake lol)

I grouped mine by manufacturer and then by date...makes more sense to me at least.

@thrussmeister if you open up /etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg you can move the systems into whatever order you like. I have mine arranged by: whatever system i modded a pi in and all that manufacturers consoles, then oldest to newest but keeping manufactures system altogether. Consoles first, then arcades, then computers.
