Title: Original Print Vs Reprint games
Post by: tehcalipwnt on March 07, 2015, 02:00:11 pm

I was wondering if the data base on this site has different entries for things such as original print vs reprint; Green Label vs Black Label on PS One for instance?

I know that it does specify, for NES games, a number of screws in the back (which can differ between prints), and I believe it also has differences in labels for Atari games.

Since this is a... I guess you'd call it a "living database," the information won't always be 100% there. Though I might ask about it first, I imagine the site people wouldn't have a problem with you creating a separate entry (if it doesn't exist) for greatest hits editions and stuff (as I previously mentioned, something similar already exists with other titles).

Yes, it has different entries for such items.

Any game variations you have are welcome on the database. Even something as small as slightly changed box text is allowed on the site.
