Sorting Roms
-
I was wondering if there is an easy way to sort out the roms by region? I have a few thousand Atari 2600 roms in my collection but only want to use the US games in the RetroPie.
There are other systems like this as well with far to many hacks and non-US roms.
Any suggestions?

If the region is indicated in the filename you can filter extremely quickly with a tool like this:
https://www.voidtools.com/downloads/ (Or even just windows standard search)Or for "no intro" based roms you can search for dat-o-matic and 1G1R (1 game 1 rom) which is a way of filtering based on region.

Thanks for those suggestions.
I sat down last night with some friends and started to sort through them manually. So that will be that.
I was also wondering if I have scraped my rom-set and then start removing roms will RetroPie clean itself up and free up space from the un-needed graphics and data files?
Thank you,
BC
