So it is best to say that if the Steelbook has the console's logo on it, that it should go into the Accessory category and if not then into the Steelbook category. It would be easier to do it that way rather than have to figure out how each and every one was sold.

This would then also include SteelBooks which come shrink-wrapped with platform-specific information but are otherwise non-discernible when opened, such as many Switch items like Pokémon Sword, seen here.

No. That entry that is linked should have its art updated to include the back where the label has the console logo. Then the entry can stay in the console accessory section.

While re-categorizing some entries currently placed in ConsoleName Accessory sub-cats, I came across two different SteelBooks for Persona 5 Strikers—one designed for PlayStation 4, and the second for Switch. However, neither have any markings indicating which platform they relate to, with the differences instead being the items' dimensions and the interior media holder for either disc or cartridge, as seen in these two eBay listings. Since there are no markings, they both belong in the Steelbooks sub-cat. Can we agree that Persona 5 Strikers (PlayStation 4) and Persona 5 Strikers (Switch) are ideal entry names? The term SteelBook is redundant as part of the Name field, given the category name.

Edit: The same can also be said for the following two sets of items:
Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Reunion SteelBook
Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Reunion SteelBook
Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga SteelBook
Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga SteelBook

As an aside, this topic name needs updating to reflect the new year.


All Switch steelbooks would go into the Switch Accessory category as they (presumably) all have the place on the inside to put the Switch cart into. The PS4 one would just have the disc nub, so it would go into the SteelBook Merch category.
