Description:

Ever wondered what would happen to the saved game file of your favorite PS1 RPG if your SD Card gets corrupted once day ?
Don't wait for that to occur.

BGS is a small application which will check the presence of saved games for a number of set emulators and native games, and save them all together for you, automatically, in a single-file archive on your SD Card.
It will also duplicate that file on your second SD Card (if inserted) in order to maximize data redundancy and avoid that you lose everything if one of your SD Card dies. It's rather unlikely that your second SD Card would get corrupted at the exact same time.

It currently supports backup up saved games for the following applications:

- Gambatte, Gameboy emulator
- Pcsx_rearmed, PS1 emulator
- Drastic, DS emulator
- PPSSPP, PSP emulator
- gpSP, GBA emulator
- UAE4ALL, Amiga emulator
- Snes9x4p, SNES emulator
- Gpfce, NES emulator
- Gngeo, NEO GEO emulator
- Fba, arcade emulator
- Apkenv, Android games (not emulated)
- Darkplaces, Quake engine
- Dune dynasty, Dune2 Reboot
- Scumm VM, LucasArts (and others) adventure games emulator
- Return to Castle Wolfenstein
- PicoDrive, Genesis/Megadrive emulator
- Freespace2
- Exult, engine for Ultima7
- Chocolate Doom, Doom engine
- Solarus DX, Zelda-like game
- Pewpew2, polygonal shooter
- Duke Nukem 3d, come get some
- 8Blitter, Master System/GameGear emulator
- Pushover
- Projectx, Forsaken-like game
- NubNub

"Don't wait for that to occur." I did wait for that to occur to my Legend of the Dragoon saves. Thanks Devs for sparing others a similar fate, and thanks Mr_Loon on the boards for bringing this to my attention!

@tieuphong -> I don't plan on supporting Google Cloud here, because API's a headache. You never know when they are going to change and it's always a problem when they do and you need to keep updating and supporting it. For now this is a offline backup solution.

This is nice, but Google cloud backup would be nicer.
