Not an addition, but I went through the database and changed every instance of "(Collector's/Special/Whatever Edition)" and the like to "- Collector's/Special/Whatever Edition" (by searching for "Edition)", fun tip), as per the style guide.

There was about like... 400 or so? 500? If I'm missing any, shoot me up a PM, because I'm not seeing much, and sifting through 3000 raw entries of "edition" ain't happening.

I'm off to tackle all the Platinum Hits/Greatest Hits/Player's Choice/etc stuff. Pray for me.

I also did that a few months back (during long, boring courses), it's crazy how many more were added since  :o

Good luck with the Greatest hits & co. At least you're not going to flood other admins with verifications like I did back then haha  :-X oops.

I'm personally not the biggest Pokémon fan (I was more excited for the TG-16 article), but I know those of you that are will appreciate the back cover:

I went through and updated (almost) all the Amiibo entries. Cropped white out of images. One thing I noticed when looking for new images was that there's a difference between NA and UK/AU packaging. NA has 6+ in the top right corner and UK/AU has the name of character there instead. I didn't update Meta Knight because I couldn't find a large enough image that was the NA version. With this all said does this mean we should have a new set of listings for PAL and everywhere else? OOMMGG!!!!

What's wrong with a separate entry with (Europe) at the end? :P

I've started adding all the missing PC Engine [JP] games. This is just the HuCard versions. I've got about 50 more to add, but I'll work on it some more tomorrow.
