Recently libretro/RetroArch#17142 got merged into RetroArch which adds a new selection at the top of the content browser
<Use This Directory>
to load the path to the directory itself (not a file) as the content. This was always supported in RetroArch but it was only possible either by manually writing a playlist file or by launching RetroArch with-L "core.so" "/directory/path"
, but not via the menu. Partially this was because a core couldn't tell the frontend that it supports loading directories. Now with the mentioned PR merged, a core can have "/" in its list of supported extensions to indicate support for loading directories.The copy of the .info file actually distributed by RetroArch's online updater has also had a separate PR just added at libretro/libretro-super#1858
