Is there any easy way to organise a lot of GBA roms into different folders? Say, different languages (J) (U) (E) etc etc.... I think GoodGBA may be able to do it, but I haven't managed to figure out how yet... o_O Any help would be much appreciated x]

You can do this with the 'rename dirs' option. If you are using GoodWindows as a frontend, just tick that box and your roms will be separated into folders like you want.

Unfortunately, GoodGBA is getting very outdated, so many entries are wrong, so do not delete your roms just yet if they are marked as 'bad'. However, Cowering aims to release updated versions of his tools before Christmas.

I recommend that you have a look at the latest No-Intro dat, which you can use to verify roms that GoodGBA doesn't have in the database:

There's also the pocketheaven #### list on the nointro site. (they say it's silly and meaningless and i agree to an extent) Bad comes to worse, you can write a small script or program to take the named files and dump them into directories based on stuff like the (U) and (J) etc.
