Is there a way to have roms icons on windows?

[Noctosphere]

Hello

Just a thought that passed through my mind
I wonder if it was possible to get icons for switch roms on windows?
IIRC, it was possible to have unique icon for every roms for 3ds.
I'd just like to know if it was possible today for switch roms too

Thanks

You mean like a forwarder that points to Retroarch but for a specific rom w/ it’s own unique icon that when clicked would start the game that is related to the icon? Or do you want to pull the icons and use them in Windows 10 or 11?

mmmh, well i dont remember if you could double click on the rom to actually launch the game/emulator
But i do remember that back with 3ds (or wii u, idr very well) you could have the icon specific of the game in your windows explorer

That wasn’t what I was thinking…at all.
Makes a bit more sense now though. Thanks for chiming in!
Whew!
