Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The PR adds Neo Geo loading support, but the file-detection path remains disabled, so matching files may still be rejected as unsupported instead of using the new loader. This should be corrected before merge; the accompanying libdragon revision change also requires explicit owner review because its compatibility and security impact is not verified.

I am still wary of this change. It might be just me, but when I first implemented it, I thought long and hard about the different uses of the expansion pak against all the released games. To me, I guess I am okay with |
|
That’s a good point. What if instead of treating every optional Expansion Pak enhancement as the same generic case, we add a few additional flags to the existing ROM feature bitmask describing what the Expansion Pak actually adds? For example, something along the lines of resolution, frame rate, and additional content/features, etc. Then the info screen could display something like: Enhanced - Higher Resolution or Enhanced - Higher Resolution, Additional Content depending on the game. That would keep Required/Recommended describing the game’s memory requirement, while Enhanced could actually tell the user what installing an Expansion Pak changes? I definitely think there's value to show the user what they get when they use an expansion pak. |

Description
Clarifies the Expansion Pak status wording shown on the ROM information screen.
This changes the displayed labels as follows:
Suggested→EnhancedNot required→Not usedNo ROM database values, Expansion Pak detection logic, or boot behavior are changed.
Motivation and Context
The current wording can be misleading when compared with the underlying ROM metadata.
ROMs marked with the database flag
FEAT_EXP_PAK_ENHANCEDare currently mapped internally toEXPANSION_PAK_SUGGESTED, which is then displayed asSuggested. Displaying this asEnhancedmore accurately reflects the database metadata.Likewise,
Not usedis clearer thanNot requiredfor titles that do not use the Expansion Pak.Closes #310.
How Has This Been Tested?
The change is limited to two user-facing strings in
format_rom_expansion_pak_info()and does not modify ROM metadata handling, Expansion Pak detection, or ROM loading behavior.The repository's automated build workflow will validate the change when the PR is submitted.
