Please add Badges to Platforms

Hello,

Could you add the ability to add the “Broken” badge to platforms and not just games? For example, platforms like the Casio Loopy and iQue are either impossible or really hard to get running properly right now and it would be nice to put a sign on the whole console to show that it’s a work in progress. It would be great if Big Box theme developers could utilize this feature so I can see which platforms are not playable when scrolling through the platform list on Big Box. Cool ideas like a “Do not cross” tape or “skull and bones” over a console would be fun to see in themes, but the developers would need LaunchBox to show broken consoles.

Also, since we’re talking about platforms and not just individual games, some new badges could be added to LaunchBox that are appropriate for consoles and not games. I made a suggested list:

Favorite
Overall Performance: Broken // Bad // Playable // Excellent <----- Colors Red, Orange, Blue, & Green
Online Multiplayer: Online Ready // Not Online Ready // Not Capable <------ Colors Green, Yellow, & Gray
Multi-Screen (for DS, 3DS, Game & Watch, and Wii U) <----- Good to know beforehand to prepare TV/monitor or pull out the Android for a second screen.
Complete Collection (flag badge for each region and 100% badge for all)
