Video Game Database Discussion / Re: What to do with CD pic when multiple CD on one release?
« on: May 01, 2017, 11:25:29 am »
Multiple discs should be in the picture, but one disc is OK.
Put the item numbers for all disks in Description field if they have them.

Site Feedback / Re: Request - Screenshots and Covers
« on: April 28, 2017, 12:13:47 pm »Does that happen often? I think I recall something about how a title screen might look different for a certain variant (publisher variant maybe?).
For some systems, the title screen shown is determined on which console a cart is used in. Two examples of systems that will do this: Neo Geo AES and Sega Game Gear.
If we are to add screenshots for game entries, it should only be done so that we can put in title screenshots. And the ability to select how many titles a specific game has (to take care of the region issue) and have one for each. Using a title screenshot can be helpful to determine game code variations that do exist, while the item and packaging is the same.
But since this is a database of actual items, I do not think it is needed to get carried away with putting all sorts of screenshots onto a game entry. There are other websites for that type of thing.

« on: April 27, 2017, 10:30:55 am »https://vgcollect.com/item/108826 & https://vgcollect.com/item/108844 (it isn't swag that's for sure)
Well, that's part of a long discussion... The physical item does not contain a game (digital key is emailed), so it's been placed into the swag category.
Actually the steam key is stickered to the game (or was it the art cards?), at least at the NIS America Europe Online Store -> does this need to be adressed for more games or is this the exception? Cause i own this game and some other games which can be considered transferrable then !
That's interesting. I got it from the NISA US store, and my key was emailed to me... Wonder if they should be listed as the same listing with that difference in the description or just have two separate listings :/
It can stay the way it is, one in swag and one in game category. But the item in swag category needs a different title to point out it is not a game, and thus not a dupe with the item in the game category.

I never let the cat near the LCD screens. He gets the squirts if he goes near them.
PS: squirts is squirt bottle filled with ~1/10 vinegar and 9/10 water.

Video Game Database Discussion / Re: Is this game's name Soccer Superstars?
« on: April 26, 2017, 10:19:28 am »
Should be Soccer Superstars: International Soccer.
You can put in description what the spines say and what the readme says.
Also should be official release if the barcode is legit. It isn't to say that the disc you got in yours is the correct one.

Fixed. Mobygames has removed watermarks from their images on their site some time ago. So if you find an entry with Mobygames watermark, you can go to their site and get the new art and replace the images on the entry.

This edition does not exist in North America. Image on this database entry is also the European version. Entry should be deleted.
We got the Collector's Edition, which is correct: https://vgcollect.com/item/19308
We do not delete entries in this case. Merged with https://vgcollect.com/item/19227

Off Topic / Re: Recently Added to Other Collections
« on: April 24, 2017, 10:41:17 am »
One of the other things I collect is electronics and movies. I'm not sure how many movies I have but I know I have near or over 1000 VHS for example. In recent months, there has been a lot of LaserDiscs popping up, I'm not sure why.
First it was a pawn shop I never been to before, and they had a bunch of them for $4 each. They also had 2 players and a Betamax which I am thinking of picking up at some point. I ended up getting these 4 LDs:
The LD player I had at the time was the Pioneer CLD-V2600 but without a remote. Recently I decided to make up a list of the tech products I want to get (eventually) and to start buying some of the things I needed, starting with the cheap stuff. The issue with the CLD-V2600 is that it is a single side play deck and the unit I had would continuously repeat sides. I knew I needed the remote, only to disable this function. I believe I had posted this before but since the CLD-V2600 is an industrial player, it has a remote that is unlike what you normally see with CE.
The timeline is weird here. I think it was 3 days prior to this remote coming in the mail, I went about and bought one of the LD players at the pawn shop. The Panasonic LX-H670 which supports both sides play. In the terms of LD players, I rank them as such:
1. Single side play
2. Both sides play/auto-reverse
3. Both sides play with AC3RF
4. LD/DVD combo
So I went from a #1 to a #2. I also picked up a "Ray Disc" player, which is one with component out that I have hooked up to my dedicated 4:3 setup. This BD player now also will perform DVD and VCD playback. The previous device was a DVD recorder, sans remote and has some weird quirks like always enabling subtitles.
And then just Saturday, someone posted an ad to Facebook for an estate sale advertising 1,500 Laserdiscs! I went on day two and got just over a dozen, with the highlights being these:

Original:https://www.vgcollect.com/item/5363 - This is a big cardboard box DS game that has a normal-sized DS case on the inside, along with the Pokéwalker accessory and manual.
Duplicate: https://www.vgcollect.com/item/21336 - This is just the smaller normal-sized DS case that comes inside of the bigger cardboard box in the original VGCollect listing. Not For Resale is on the back of this box.
Added cardboard box to description on 5363.
Fixed art on 21336 and changed description to note it comes in the box.
Feel free to bump that old topic about whether or not these should be separate entries or not.
