The documents can be edited by anyone with a free Github account. I believe that both use the field but EmulationStation can just look generically at every system if it doesn't recognize the "platform" defined from es_systems.cfg. EmulationStation's built in scraper uses the file names to find matches. Steven Selph's Scraper will compares hashes generated from the files you have with a database of known games to find a match. How would I know if the scraper is getting confused with both sets of roms in there? You can use either "pcengine" or "supergrafx" for your SuperGrafx games. I've never got the "pce-cd" games to scrape trying to get this set up right the first time so I'd rather not place the roms in all the wrong places. If you put all of those the same "supergrafx" in a folder named "supergrafx" you should be able to scrape it without issue (I think I only had 1 game not scrape using Sselph's scraper but the scraper built into EmulatationStation found that last one). I'm not at my RPi so I'm working off of my memory but for scraping, it looks at what you have in your field in /etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg Typically the, and are all the same name. I have a "pcengine" folder for all my TurboGrafx 16/PC Engine games, then I have a "pce-cd" folder for all my TurboGrafx CD/PC Engine CD/TurboDuo games and last I have a "supergrafx" folder for all my Super Grafix games I personally use 3 folders.I guess because I grew up with a TurboGrafx 16 when all my friends had SNES and Genesis systems. The doc pages are very helpful but a bit confusing at can put all those ROMs in the same "pcengine" folder but when you launch a Super Grafx games you'll need to change the emulator to lr-beetle-supergrafx from the Runcommand. I just wish the doc pages explained that. But that's fine if that's how it's supposed to be. So I"m just a bit confused that they are supposed to be all put together in the same rom folder. I would think that there should be separate rom folders for NES and Famicom (not disk - just the roms), and also separate folders for PCEngine and Turbografix-16, since they are technically different systems that got different game releases.

So these are questions that are likely to come up for a newbie. Ditto for the Turbogafix-16/PCEngine page. For a newbie, with sets of both NES roms and Famicom roms, the doc page makes no mention of whether they can be combined together. Ideally, the doc page should make this more apparent, but it doesn't. I'm thinking the roms should run okay from the same folder, but how would I know if the scraper is getting confused with both sets of roms in there?

I'm dumping all the roms in the appropriate folders and I just would like to avoid making any early mistakes. I haven't actually even run any roms yet. I don't mean to sound unappreciative, but as a newbie, wouldn't it be better to just tell me, since presumably some of you guys know the answer? I'm trying to get this set up right the first time so I'd rather not place the roms in all the wrong places.
