Ooh, those are cool. It's always great to see someone who collects for a system that not many of us saw because of where we live.

Just be sure to mention if these are the tape or disk versions if there's multiple versions of the game out there. I'm not very familiar with the C64 itself but I know lots of companies released the same game many times.

Ah, okay. I'll do that now And yeah, It's cool having some kinda semi-obscure games that not everyone talks about. Most of the games I have for the system came with the system when I bought it from a charity shop for £30 (They were in a box in a big cassette case) and then I ended up ordering Star Wars off of Amazon because I have fond memories of playing that game in the arcade back when I was younger

*edit* Quick question though, how do I specify whether it's the tape or disk version? Is there somewhere in the info part I'm missing or do I just put it right in the title?

In the title would be fine. That way you can't have double's in the database.

Let's say that someone released Commando multiple times. You'd do it like this:

Commando (Ocean)
Commando (Acclaim)

Or

Commando (Tape)
Commando (Disk)

Alright, I've edited 'em all now. I put "(Cassette)" at the end of each one, because they're all the Cassette versions

No no, you only need to do that on games that have multiple versions! If a game was only released on cassette, and not on disc or cart, then there's no need to add that.

Oh God. Get ready to add cart to the end of everything! lol

Oh God. Get ready to add cart to the end of everything! lol

The C64 had four main storage formats: Tape, 5.25" floppy disk, 3.5" floppy disk, and cart. I've personally only encountered 3.5" floppy and cart formats in all these years.

Ah, damnit. Sorry. Well, it looks like someone's fixed it up for me anyway. So, thank you to whoever did that. I'm kinda bad at this

If my memory serves me right, we only had tape and 5.25 disk. And tape was my main use. I later have seen a few carts, but no 3.5 disks.

Well, you're in Europe, I'm talking about Southern California. :p

I once found a box filled with 150-200 C64 3.5" disks. Most were home made, probably downloaded by whoever owned them; but a few were retail software, office-type stuff. I wish I could've brought it home with me.
