Issue description

Hello. I would like to ask for a way to manually sort games.

There's lot's of games tha end up in weird positions within the gamelist. Games like "The Legend of Zelda" and "Zelda II: The Adventure of Link" end up apart when, ideally, they would end up next to each other. "Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain" and "Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver" also end up apart. The Castlevania trilogy on GBA ends up wrong. Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow appears first on the list but it was the last of the trilogy. Mortal Kombat, Mortal Kombat II and Mortal Kombat 3 also appear ou of order. There are more examples. But that could be easily corrected if a way to manually sort the entries in the gamelist existed.

So, add a way for the users to make their gameslists tidier please.

Why don’t you rename the names in the metadata with whatever makes sense to you?
The examples you give here all follow different patterns…

I just don't thinks it's aesthetically pleasing to do so. I also don't think changing the name makes sense. Zelda II was called that deliberately. Renaming the game to "The Legend of Zelda II" just to launch the game and see the real title wouldn't feel right.

So, in short, I believe it's more pleasing if the name appears as it does in the title screen and the game box, while maintaining the games organized as you would in, say, a shelf or something like that. Zelda II is still called Zelda II, and it comes after The Legend of Zelda :)

Hello,
I agree that a "SORTNAME" feature would be fine.
