"Cleaning" up the games list?!?

[AGGIEZ]

What is the best way to "clean" up the games list? I really don't need 5 versions of every game and would like to get my list to only show the best version of a game. Also, I'd like to be able to delete broken games and delete some of the really old Atari games that won't get any play. I am running MAMEWAH.

Is there a program out there that you can do this with or is it a matter of creating an extensive custom game list or manually going into the ROMS folder and deleteing the games you don't want???

I use emuloader to prune my available ROMs. I do not use it as a front end. You have the option of deleting roms from it's interface while viewing the snaps, etc.

emuloader

Doing this in conjunction with using CMOV (thanks joymonkey)

It isn't too bad. There is another batch that removed the manga mahjong games as well (dont remember the link)

Hope it helps

Thanks Gozur. I was able to sort out the clones and leave only the parent games in MAMEWAH, but there are some parent games that I simply don't want. I wish there was an easy way to delete or not show certain games through MAMEWAH or MAMEWAH Setup Butler (hint hint)

Has any one ever posted up thier Custom List? I have been editing my custome list to remove all the clones and other "junk", thus far it has been kind of time consuming. I am sure someone has already done the same, be nice to start with a parred down list vs the full list of 5k. I am going to use the CMOV and see where that puts me.

A 'remove from custom list' shortcut exists with the next version of MW...
