Current state of ROM icons

SUMMARY
Currently the Breeze icon theme uses compact discs and generic executable icons
for old cartridge-based video game ROM image formats. I see two issues here:

- Wrong semantics: These old video games were distributed on game cartridges,
not CDs.
- Inconsistency: Half of these cartridge formats use one style of icon, the
other half an another one.

I think it would make sense introducing a new icon featuring some kind of
stylized game cartridge for these files. A photo of these game cartridges for
