It's been quite awhile since we last heard from developer Quake (aka Quakes69) of SubZero DeZigns who shared many of his projects including FFXIV Solar Light Nexus and Zeta and Simple PS3Updates Links, and today he's back with some handy RetroArch Tools he calls RetroList and RetroSync for video game emulation lovers!

To quote from his e-mail and official thread on this latest release: Hi, Quake here!
I put together some Windows Apps for the RetroArch software that'll make Windows Users life much easier. I called them: RetroList, and RetroSync.
RetroSync:
Sync your Roms with your Thumbnail Images via: Settings\User Interface\Appearance\Thumbnails\<Boxarts><Title Screens><ScreenShots>
Discover what images are missing. Find out if your image is misspelled in the Search function.
Options: None/Copy/Delete/Kill Images
RetroList:
Are you sick of your Roms not showing up in the Playlist? Not any more. Manually make your Playlist of your Roms for RetroArch. RetroArch relies on a DB (Database) of a Rom List.
If your Game (Rom) is not in the RetroArch DB it'll not show up in the Playlist under the Console Section. Rectify this by Manually Making your own Playlist.
Instructions:
User Roms

Update: He also updated Simple PS3Updates which can be found on his official forum thread HERE, with details below to quote:
Hello out there. I recently updated the Databases of Simple PS3Updates. Added 1104 Game IDs to the Databases. Now holds 8904 Game IDs.
Remember to BACKUP your Database before doing anything.
If you have this installed from a prior release you can just hit your Check Database Update via: Database / Update DB / Yes / Wait for it to load / Then click Import button / NO PS3Personal / YES PS3Games - "NOT PS3Personal"
Or just (re)install the software.
Thanks,
