Description

The GUI should attempt to install any game .pkgs when queueing multiple .pkgs for installation before attempting to install any update or DLC .pkgs.

Reason

Allowing the emulator to install game .pkgs before anything else prevents any .pkgs from being skipped during installation, significantly better than the current system where an update/DLC .pkg is completely skipped in the queue when installed before a game .pkg (even if the corresponding game .pkg is IN the queue, just after the update/DLC due to file manager inconsistencies), only telling the user the .pkg cannot be installed; no other warning and skipped entirely.

Examples

No response
