Import ROM folders

Import single-system or organized multi-system folders and keep your library clean.

Updated July 13, 2026

Emulation Ninja supports both quick imports and structured library ingestion.

Import options

  • Single-system import for quick validation.
  • Organized folder import for full library onboarding.
  • Migration-style import when folders are already grouped by platform.

Tips for clean imports

  • Keep ROM files in stable folders before scanning.
  • Re-scan after adding many new files.
  • For MAME, expect merged/non-merged set handling.

If files import but do not match well, continue with Troubleshooting: no games found, wrong matches, or missing new metadata.
