Is there a way to improve the search engine?

I was trying to search for Mickey's Speedway USA for the GBC. I tried just typing in mickey speedway but I got zero results. I had to use the " 's " in order for it to find the game I was looking for. Is there a way to allow it to search for partial terms rather than having to be exact?

Not a similar issue, but an issue nonetheless. I hate how the auto complete works. Sometimes I'm trying to search  a generic term, like "Mario", and if I don't hit enter fast enough it selects the first auto complete result. Might be a Firefox issue, but it certainly annoys me.

Apostrophes mess up the search as well. Like if you search for Mickey's the auto correct doesn't pick up on anything prior to the '

I use Firefox and I've never had this happen.

It happens to me all the time. I use Chrome so it's not a Firefox specific issue.

I just browse the section, rather than use the search.  So I guess I've never noticed...

I have had this happen in FF too.

Just saying thanks for improving it. I have noticed that it will now recognize ":" and allow you to keep searching.

I'm in the process of changing the encoding type of the data and all the pages so it may be wonky for a few days while I push out the updates. I'll also be attempting to address the issues everyone pointed out above later this week.
