During the past couple of days I have been busy fixing many entries of the European Nintendo eShop 3DS and Wii U sections. Many of these entries feature incorrect front box images that for example originated from the North American eShop or are just random images plucked somewhere from the internet. So I have been replacing them with the standard 1x1 artwork that the European eShop currently uses. About half of my entries were approved, but about the other half were denied with no consistency or good explanation whatsoever (just the same Information Already on File on repeat). It's honestly really demotivating to see half of the time I spend on this go to waste...

Just a quick example of an European entry featuring the American artwork: https://vgcollect.com/item/136871
American eShop: https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/pilotwings-vc-snes-3ds/
European eShop: https://www.nintendo.co.uk/Games/Super-Nintendo/Pilotwings-775615.html

Edit: Another illustration of this issue. This entry (https://vgcollect.com/item/91952) had the correct box art accepted, but this one (https://vgcollect.com/item/91951) didn't. I just don't understand why this is approached differently for the same type of entry.

Do you have a recommendation as to a guide to use to determine if submitted artwork is correct for that region?

The Escapists: Complete Edition is named as such, there isn't a second The in the subtitle. The image is just a mock-up.

Does the image need to be removed?

Yeah, it's not representative of the actual product.

OK front image removed. This item has been released by now right (It says May 2019) so there should be some actual artwork to put on the entry now.

North America didn't get a physical release of this https://vgcollect.com/item/162855

https://vgcollect.com/item/138209

This does not exist in Physical form. Should be moved to PlayStation Network Vita [NA].

[fazerco]

ok, ill ask why?

https://vgcollect.com/item/131943

nvm, will looking for the url, i found the right one 

https://vgcollect.com/item/141300

so my edits with the first one should either be deleted, or merged with the 2nd one, whatever you want.

These alternate covers (https://vgcollect.com/item/157286 and https://vgcollect.com/item/157285) are just covers given to customers, they were not on game cases with game carts. I guess these should get moved to the Posters subgroup of Swag?

[telly]

Few entries with a [MX][LAT] in the name

https://vgcollect.com/item/163277 to https://vgcollect.com/item/163275

I'm guessing the LAT should not be there but I'm not sure what it should be replaced with or if it should be dropped. Maybe replace it with BR?

EDIT: Read through the related posts in the TLD thread and this post may be redundant. Feel free to ignore!

They would go into Switch Accessories. And the art should not have the standard front/back like a game entry would.

I'm the one who created those entries, basically because those were not only released in Mexico, but for all of Latin America.
I just sent edits back to keep them only for [MX], since it seems the mods don't consider Latin America as a region (except for Brazil and Mexico, that is).

[tripredacus]

Brazil and Mexico are their own, an item would only get [LAT] if released in multiple Central/South American countries that do not include Mexico or Brazil.

So, if a game is released in Mexico and other countries, should it include every country in the region, or only Mexico?
Should this entry be [AR][BO][CL][CO][CR][EC][SV][GT][HN][MX][NI][PA][PY][PE][UY]? https://vgcollect.com/item/163231

EDIT:

There's also something related. Some entries have text in Portuguese, but ESRB instead of ClassInd rating, so I can't determine if they were sold in Brazil. What should be the procedure in that case?

163231 is not the Mexican release.
Also, this is incorrect in the description. The text is not "Software with license to be played on PS4 systems" but "Software con licencia para jugar en consolas PS4" (sic)
https://articulo.mercadolibre.com.ar/MLA-749810883-spider-man-ps4-fisico-_JM?quantity=1

But it is not "released" in Peru, where it uses an import label.

Mexican release has:
- import label on back
- line on back below ESRB "In-Game Purchases/Compras dentro del juego" (sic)
- back item number: 3001880-AC.R1
- different kerning on copyright text

In summary, 163231 can have [AR] tld in the title.

*(sic) used because looking at low res images, also didn't bother with accents or graves.
