      I've searched a little and haven't found an answer along with looking it up on the wiki. Also, I currently do not have a Rpi at the moment (ordering the new one), otherwise I would just try it. So my question.

      Can ROMS be put in folders within the Console/System Folder under the game's name?
      This is on the USB Stick, so the pi can copy them over to the SD Card.

      I know the following listing works. (assume this is using an USB Stick before transfering them).
      /root/retropi/roms/system

      I was wondering if the following will work.
      /root/retropi/roms/system/gameName

      Info based on: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Transferring-Roms
      which I have used in the past. But I have a new set of roms I would like to use and when they were extracted they were in this directory structure (rom/system/gameName), so I don't want to have to go through each folder and move the file.
