      Hello,

      Sometime it can be better to launch the US or JAP rom instead of EU, so a good option will having the possibility to force launching the rom of another country.

      But of course, we don’t want duplicates in the game list.

      I know that some guy create subfolder when entering in a system, to be able to choose the region for the roms, but i think it’s a workaround.

      Is it a possible feature for the future ?

      Tks!

        Not quite, the front-end doesn't care or know about what regions. For Emulationstation 1 file means 1 gamelist/game and it only knows what command can run to start the game for that particular file.
