Issue description

Hello,
I think it would be very cool for the UX to allow activate/deactivate hardcore/softcore mode per game and per system regardless of the global configuration. This option could be placed in both context menus, either for a stand-alone game, or per system.

Thanks again

Interesting.

But it's not something that should be managed by EmulationStation.
It's a "configuration" problem of the distribution that does not require code changes in EmulationStation.

A new feature should be added inside es_features.cfg for emulator/cores that support cheevos and be managed by configgen / emulatorLauncher which are specific for the distributions.

Please close this issue and move it to Batocera-Linux repository ( and also https://github.com/RetroBat-Official/emulatorlauncher ) - I don't know what distribution you use.

For your information. I did spread the word to the Retrobat team, and it was added for the future v6.
See how it was achieved here, if you want to inspire and propose a PR for Batocera too :
