Off Topic / New Retro Gamer Mags Stopped?

« on: February 22, 2024, 10:19:59 pm »

Have new submissions to the Merchandise/Magazines category been stopped? I have been trying to add Retro Gamer Magazine Load 254 to the magazine category and have been unsuccessful. Can you explain why?

I have several copies of Retro Gamer magazine and am considering adding them to VGC however, they are oversized at 9" wide x 11-5/8" high.
 My inkjet printer can handle the length but cyts off about 1/4" of the width.  Would these images be OK to submit for new magazines?  Also, since they're currently list as "Retro Gamer # 23, 235, etc., they are not in consecutive order and if the current list is expanded quite a bit it would be difficult to find if certain issues are listed.  I would like to suggest additional entries to these magazines be listed by 3-digit numbers, preceded by zeroes for earlier issues, such as "Issue # 001, 037, 235, etc." The ones I get my Retro Gamer magazines at our local Barnes and Noble and they are made in the UK.  They don't show "Issue" numbers on the monthly magazines, only "Load" numbers. I assume these "Load" numbers can be interpreted as "Issue" numbers. I have approximately 20 issues, including some 'Annual' and special editions.  I just love them for their colorful artwork and great nostalgia-filled articles.  Please advise when possible and if you agree to the listing suggestions above for numbering and using Load numbers as Issue numbers, or have other recommendations, I'll start adding mine to your collection. Thanks for your attention.

Video Game Database Discussion / How to Add Pelican Universal Arcade Fighter Stick

« on: June 09, 2023, 10:15:26 pm »

There is already an accessory "Pelican Arcade Fighter Stick" listed for PS2 and it appears to be the same thing I have except it's in a sealed package and it's a different color. The one I have is yellow and has multiple connectors for Xbox, PS2, and GameCube. If it is a 'universal' controller, is there a category for 'Universal Accessories' or should it be listed as an accessory controller to each system it's designed for?

Video Game Database Discussion / another Jampack Winter 2002 (Rating: RP-T)

« on: June 02, 2016, 10:33:17 pm »

Your database lists a PS2 Jampack demo Winter 2002, but I bought one today that is also a Winter 2002 edition but it's different from the one listed.  The front and back covers differ slightly, as well as the bar code and item numbers.  The ERSB rating on the front cover is RP-T (Rating Pending to Teen) whereas the one already listed is "RP-M".  I would like to add this 'Jampack' but I don't know how to list this one differently from the one already in your database.  Any suggestions?

Classic Video Games / Re: Haunting Ground manual?

You can download one at www.replacementdocs.com.  At the top left corner 'Main Menu' click on "Download Manuals".  Under "Platforms", click on "Playstation 2".  The first alphabetical listing of PS2 games appears.  Go underneath this box and put "12" on the "go to page" number.  You'll see 'Haunting Ground' listed above.  Download and Print it if this helps 'til you can find a manual.
