How do I zip a folder of roms to separate zips?

I managed to find a program called Multi-Zip which does the job, only problem is it gives the zips the same name with an increasing extension like below.

Nes Roms 001.zip
Nes Roms 002.zip
Nes Roms 003.zip
Nes Roms 004.zip
etc
etc

The Nes Roms part is a name I can choose before it zips the folder contents.

This is not ideal as it would be better to keep the original filename and just change the extension so Mario.NES becomes Mario.zip.

Is there a program out there that can does this?
 
I asked exactly the same question-the answer is to use winrar tell it to use zip compression and tell it to make seperate zips under the compression options (somewhere I cant remember exactly where)-sorted
 
Thanks lurch :)

Winrar does it fine after I tick 'put each file to seperate archive' in the Advanced tab and change the format to ZIP.
 
Great tip! I went about creating a command prompt batch file. :rolleyes:

@ECHO OFF
LFNFOR ON
FOR "%%a" IN (%1) DO WZZIP -ex -m -x*.zip "%%a.zip" "%%a"
