Question about game "grouping" in a cabinet
« on: April 15, 2017, 10:52:21 am »
So, I am FINALLY thawing out here in the NorthEast, and eagerly awaiting getting the Wrestling cab started.

I have a question though. Is it possible to have multiple games (roms) from different systems run together without having to switch emulators? I am pretty sure this is impossible, but I wasn't sure if there was a front end that would allow just a list of games and it pulls the correct emulator from a root drive or something so I wouldn't have to back out of each emulation to go from say Wrestlefest to ProWrestling.

The AttractMode FE handles this well.  You can have multiple emulators in the same game list.
