Why in the name of god do people use emulator specific frontends when something like QuickPlay exists?

There's so many things it can do it's not even funny. For one, it's super customizable, so you can make it it look pretty much like you want it to. Also, it provides support for ROMs in not only Zip format, but Ace, RAR, and 7zip.

One of the most bad ass things about it is that you can have a system's ROMs contained in a single big ass archive, which with 7zip creates amazing space savings (Compression-wise and due to extreme reduction in slack file waste, which with the retarded amount of games I have is amazingly useful).

Even before this, there were universal frontends like 1-Up and Emustation that were awesome for their time; lack of a GUI in an emulator is a complete non-issue with something like them, so it blows my mind that people bitch about that.

p.s. Mednafen rules.
