ROMSearch

ROMSearch is designed as a simple-to-inferface with tool that will allow you to pull ROM files from some remote (or local) location, figure out the best ROM, and move it cleanly to a folder that can imported into an emulator. ROMSearch is supposed to be a one-shot program to get you from files online to playing games (which is what we want, right?).

ROMSearch offers the ability to:

• Sync from remote folder using rclone
• Parse DAT files as well as filenames for ROM information
• Remove dupes from ROM lists using DAT files as well as the excellent retool clonelists
• Moving files to a structured location, including potentially additional files that may be needed
• Discord integration so users can see the results of runs in a simple, clean way

To get started, see the documentation.

Currently, ROMSearch is in early development, and so many features may be added over time. At the moment, ROMSearch works for the following consoles:

• Nintendo - GameCube
• Nintendo - Super Nintendo Entertainment System
• Sony - PlayStation

but be aware there may be quirks that will only become apparent over time. We encourage users to open issues as and where they find them.
