Different settings per game?

Different settings per game?
Is there any way to have specific settings for each game? Sometimes I need to change multiple settings between games and it is both a confusing and time consuming process.

If anyone if curious, the games I'm trying to switch between are:
(on nexus 7 2013)

MHP3 (need frameskip 1)
KH:BBS (frameskip 1 causes flashes)
Valkyria Chronicles
War of the Lions (I need to change so many things for this to work)
Dissidia (same)

Only Windows can currently, and even then, it's not the most intuitive process (requires shortcuts or bat files with command-line args). It is in the pipeline to be done at some point, though..

RE: Different settings per game?
Hmm, I don't get flashes in the latest git build for any frameskip in Kingdom Hearts.

Personally, as a user I think settings per game are confusing. I've used emulators that do it, including emulators than run on a psp. Ultimately I always end up getting confused when I switch to another game and my button config is wrong or the screen is stretched in a way I'm no longer used to. One seemed to reset to defaults for every game, which was super frustrating, because I couldn't figure out how to make it use my preferred settings EVERYWHERE.

I think some settings will need to be per game, but I personally would really like to see things as automatic as possible. I'd like to see auto frameskip set to 1 "just work" for "I can tolerate up to one frame skipped."

Things like rendering mode, audio volume, different hacks and CPU speeds, fast memory on/off, etc., should definitely be considered though, for sure.
