symlink rom mimetypes

[abouvier]

ROM dump file (from game cartridge) should have different icon than optical disc dump file.
I used inode-chardevice.svg because it was the more appropriate (tied with inode-blockdevice.svg), but maybe a new icon should be created for ROM files (depicting a chip). Or maybe chardevice files should have a new icon :)

I was thinking of having unique icons for each rom filetype as well, My idea was to have the icons resemble the physical counterpart of each console's cartrige/cd. I had designed this icon for a Nintendo 64 rom cartridge for example.

[abouvier]

Great idea! But sadly I can't help with the drawings :p
I think you should respect the folded paper sheet design (with the cartridge inside) otherwise.

[maxtron95]

Alternative idea for the folded paper design, use logos of the consoles and use their colors for them.

@creepertron95 very good, but only strange colors & logo on Sega mime.

[varlesh]

@creepertron95 If you plan draw this mimes - don't be scared close this PR

[maxtron95]

@abouvier I'm going to go ahead to close this PR to start a new issue related to creating the new icons.

[maxtron95]

@varlesh Which Sega mimetype had the strange colors and logo?

[varlesh]

[varlesh]

@creepertron95 or you know another info?

[maxtron95]

I created an issue that lists all of the console logos used. Should I go ahead and recolor the Sega CD Mimetype I created to blue?

There are Regional differences in a few of the console logos as well.

[varlesh]

I think rigional differences i's not right. SEGA have single logo. And good looking on white backround

[varlesh]

Yes, it's hard for little sizes. But i can't doing anything ((

[maxtron95]

@varlesh Should I go ahead and make the mimetype the Sega logo, but recolor it to the other console logo colors? (Master System, Dreamcast, Genesis) We can use the S in the logo.

[varlesh]

It's solution...

[varlesh]

Only for Sega. Other examples fine... only more colors @creepertron95 ))

[maxtron95]

@varlesh Not just Sega, earlier Nintendo consoles went by different names in regions as well. Example: (US/EU: NES, JP: Famicom)

It doesn't apply to later Nintendo consoles starting with the Nintendo 64 as they used the same name in all regions.

[varlesh]

Name it's not logo, but you are right. Draw as you like ))
