TODO:
-- test all games and double check support status
-- identify any FDI that has a size different than 1265664 (== 3'5" floppy image)
-- document any unorthodox way for running a given sw
+- Verify disk labels, several are mislabeled (i.e. has numbers instead of letters and viceversa);
+- Mark as baddump any SW disk(s) that sports non-default factory saves;
+- identify any FDI that has a size bigger than 1265664 (== 3'5" floppy image);
+- document any unorthodox way for running a given sw;
- document (and support) alternative file types (FDD, NFD, FIX)
can we convert some of those to FDI or D88? or some protection schemes need
such format? (Note that some disks come in DIP, DCP, DCU formats: these shall
be just plain images, like FDI, just with different headers with the track
"map")

+- Identify any software that uses the MAD Factory NAX.EXE driver for Otomi-chan Kai sound board;
+- Find a bulletproof way to anti-virus scan all disks, particularly true for DOS SWs;
+- DIR the Wizard98 disks and understand how they works exactly (those supposedly are cracks for copy protected disks);
