A question about adding ROM files and lr-snesx on pi zero

Hello,
Today I discovered the option of msu 1 hacks on SNES ROMS and I want to give it a shot (specifically with A link to the past). Due that, I have two questions about the process:

Transferring the msu files: As far as I understood, the MSU file needs to be on the same folder as the ROM itself. To avoid making a mess, can I create a folder for each game I add (so for example .../roms/snes/zelda for this game) or does it all have to be "free" inside the console folder?
The installation guide says this mod needs the lr-snesx core. Can a pi zero run this core? From the docs I get the feeling it can't ("overclocked RPi3B or stock RPi3B+ are recommended to avoid slowdown in most regular games"), but I thought I'd ask just in case.

Thanks in advance!

@dankcushions I'm not entirely sure what you mean by slideshow

@hairdyeguy very bad performance.

@dankcushions Oh. Bummers.
I really hoped to play Legend of Zelda with a cd orchestra soundtrack.
What bout creating a folder for each game, is it technically possible?

it depends on the emulator. normally that would be fine, but it would just introduce an extra button press when navigating emulationstation. but to what end do you want to make it 'tidy'? many files are generated per-game in the rom folder anyway (save states, rom memory, etc), and the msu file shouldn't be visible in emulationstation.

@dankcushions My main worry was that the msu-1 file will get entangled with other files, especially if I was to add ,ore msu hacks, but this is more of my paranoia. I also thought it would be more tidy, but if it adds more clicks and I can't use lr-snes9x anyway, I guess I'll pass.
Thanks for your help!
