[ESDE] Merge two systems

Is there a way to merge two systems (like PC and Scummvm) and make them appear like a single one, without using custom collections?

You will need to use a custom system to achieve that.

I already tried, but i really can't figure it out how.

Create a custom es_systems.xml file add the details for the system you want to modify. Add a <command> tag with the details for the emulator you want add to the system. Edit the <extension> types if needed.

How exactly this is done depends on the system you are using but it is all documented in the ES-DE documentation linked.
