I think I found the problem. I edited the name in es_systems.cfg famicom isn't a core so that's why it wouldn't launch. Even if the gui show you the options to configure a famicom.core somehow it doesn't exist. So the <name></name> tag need to be named nes. Same applies for super famicom.

<name>nes</name>

I guess if I could find the core folder I might be able to copy that folder and have a new famicom core.

So in short to add famicom/super famicom to show in your US/EUR roms collection you need to:

edit your /recalbox/share/system/.emulationstation/es_systems.cfg

<system>

<fullname>Family Computer</fullname>
<name>nes</name>
<path>/recalbox/share/roms/famicom</path>
<extension>.nes .NES .zip .ZIP</extension>
<command>python /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/configgen/emulatorlauncher.pyc %CONTROLLERSCONFIG% -system %SYSTEM% -rom %ROM% -emulator %EMULATOR% -core %CORE% -ratio %RATIO%</command>
<platform>nes</platform>
<theme>famicom</theme>
<emulators>
<emulator name="libretro">
<cores>
<core>fceunext</core>
<core>quicknes</core>
<core>fceumm</core>
<core>nestopia</core>
</cores>
</emulator>
</emulators>
</system>

copy nes folder to /recalbox/share/system/.emulationstation/themes/recalbox-next/famicom

copy the svg art from jp to famicom/data directory

delete us/eu/jp sub folders

edit custom.xml and remove region section at the bottom of code

Last two steps might ot be needed but if you like to keep the code neat and clean you can do it.

It would be a great feature to be honest but i'm not in a rush for this at all for now, it's something a was looking at and since a have the hardware to do it andthe rpi i'm working on right now has only two usb ports so adding an extra wifi interface would certainly be welcome in my case. I'll look at the source and see if I couldn't do something on my side to help you with this.
