Expand arcade rom file names

RetroArch General
#1

Is it possible for RetroArch to somehow expand on recognized file names?

FBA creates a database file containing information specifically for this purpose. The file information inside the file looks something like:


<game name="sfiii3">
		<description>Street Fighter III 3rd Strike: Fight for the Future</description>
		<cloneof></cloneof>
		<manufacturer>Capcom</manufacturer>
		<year>1999</year>
		<genre>Fighter / Versus</genre>
</game>

If something like this could be implemented(maybe it already is?), it would make navigating rom files much more convenient.

There’s some database stuff going on already that should hopefully be ready for regular use very soon. I think arcade rom names will be included in it.
