Finally bought a series of JP PSX "games" Ive been eyeballing for a while called the EPS Series.
They're definitely an interesting little subset within the PlayStation's library and one that could really only exist during this specific moment in time. I'm surprised I never took the time to listen to these singles whenever I created the entries years ago, so I did that just now.
Surely in time you'll also add Iceman: Digital Playstage and Robots: Video Alchemy to your collection too, right?
Neither of our qualified sources use this name for the publisher, they just use THQ or THQ Inc.Publisher: THQ Japan
Subsidiary for THQ in Japan up until 2012.
There is no company entry on Mobygames. Give some game examples and we can check on them to see if it qualifies.

One thing Id like to ask. I have quite a few JP Xbox 360 games that aren't in the database but I don't have access to a scanner. Is it ok to create new items without adding pictures or is it generally frowned upon?
While there are no rules that say submitting images is required, we certainly encourage it if a user is able to provide that information.
With that said, even users without a scanner have the means to submit quality images. GameFAQs and MobyGames are generally good sources to lift images from (especially the latter), but there is nothing wrong with finding photos online to crop and rotate for our needs.
If you're wanting to submit Japanese entries with artwork, I would recommend visiting these sites which are collected in the International Classified Sites Research Archive thread:
If you have to make an entry without pictures but have the item in hand, at least put in the barcode and item numbers into the entry. That way it will be easier for when someone eventually adds a picture to the entry and/or staff need to verify the art is correct.
