Multilingual Support for Game Metadata

📋Summary

Introduce support for localized game metadata in LaunchBox. This would allow users to view game titles, descriptions, and other metadata in their preferred language, improving accessibility for non-English speakers.

❗Problem

While LaunchBox currently supports multiple languages for the UI, all game metadata — including descriptions, genres, and developer info — is stored in English. This creates an inconsistent experience for international users. E.g even when the interface is set to Spanish, all game info remains in English unless manually changed or scraped through third-party tools like Skraper.

💡Proposal

• Allow the LaunchBox Games Database to store metadata entries in multiple languages

• Enable users to select their preferred language for game metadata in the application settings

• Add community-driven translation support for new and existing game entries

• Fall back to English when localized data is unavailable

✅Benefits

• Provides a consistent and fully localized experience for international users

• Reduces reliance on third-party tools or manual editing for non-English metadata

• Opens LaunchBox to a wider global audience
