Hooked up the new UI for gamepads as well, now there's another problem. It's hard to tell at a glance which device it is when multiple gamepads are connected. Like with the old UI (screenshots 3 and 4) it was more obvious
I'm really torn between the 2 approaches here. For keyboard the new one is 100% better, nothing to say here. For gamepad both approaches have big tradeoffs, and I don't like either of them
Old gnome-games mockups by @KekunPlazas@mamot.fr showed both controllers at once, but with that layout it's impossible to also show controls, that was just gamepad assignment

Added a feature that I wanted for a while: regional branding selector for things like NES vs Famicom or Mega Drive vs Sega Genesis. The Auto value is determined based on the current locale - i.e. it's up to translators to select the correct region - so basically the previous behavior. France is separate from Europe because of PC Engine name instead of TurboGrafx-16. Brazil has a different 32X name. I'm honestly not sure if this is gonna scale, since there will likely be more tiny regional differences, but we'll see I guess. Worst case I can revert it.
