General / Re: What are some of the worst games you've ever played?

The SNES port of Pit Fighter is a strong contender for worst game on the console. The Arcade game was alright, but the SNES port had reduced content, awful graphics, awful controls and was needlessly difficult.

Video Game Database Discussion / Question about formatting for SNES white label games.

« on: September 14, 2024, 09:19:35 pm »

Can I get some clarification on how to create these entries?

When I created this entry: https://vgcollect.com/item/158065 I did so without any box art, since it was never sold with a box. Box art was later added, not by me. The tag was also edited to (Majesco / white label). I assumed that meant that white label SNES games should have box art and the (Majesco / white label) tag. So when I created this entry: https://vgcollect.com/item/272541 I gave it box art and the (Majesco / white label) tag, but it was then edited to remove the box art and change the tag to just (white label)

How should I format future white label games to be added to the database?

General / Re: Which Generation Of Console Or PC Games You Think Contain The Best Graphics

4th Gen for purely nostalgic reasons. These were the consoles that dominated the market when I was in my early to mid teens and I was playing the games that would become life-long favourites.

General / Re: If you could be the speedrun WR holder for any game what would it be?

« on: March 11, 2024, 12:02:57 pm »

Some weird game that no one has heard of.

I had the WR in a couple categories for Uncharted Waters: New Horizons, but they've since been broken.

This was one of my favourite games as a kid, but I was a weird kid.

This was always one of my favourites.

"This Game Stinks" Probably contributed to EarthBound's commercial failure.

General / Re: How do you feel about Store Exclusive CE's?

« on: October 04, 2023, 09:24:15 pm »

I typically don't like collector's editions because I like my games to look uniform on the shelf. The only collector's edition I've bought in ages is pre-ordering the Jurassic Park collection from LRG, but that's because I'm also a Jurassic Park collector in addition to a game collector.

General / Re: Would you replace a Greatest Hits/Reprint game?

« on: September 11, 2023, 07:15:29 pm »

If I find the development and/or release history of a particular game interesting, I like to have multiple variants. If not, then I'm not too picky about which variant I have, so long as there's no difference in gameplay.

I rarely pre-order anything, let alone Collector's Editions but I just preordered the Jurassic Park Prehistoric Edition for Switch from LRG because Jurassic Park is to this day, my favourite movie of all time.
