ArcadeManager v7.1
Arcade Manager v7.1
This is a rom management tool, specifically designed for use with Retropie & Recalbox, but it works with anything.

- User-friendly, easy to use interface
- Wizard with pre-built lists of games
- Download and install an overlays pack (Retropie or Recalbox)
- Manage rom files: copy or cleanup a selection of roms
- Manage games lists: download pre-built files, merge and split files, convert DAT or INI files, and more
- Included help
