Video Game Database Discussion / Re: Duplicate List 2024
« on: October 07, 2024, 09:39:46 pm »https://vgcollect.com/item/65503 [EU] – Doesn’t appear to be a legitimate front box image. Font is too large when compared to other images. Exaggerated rounded corners on the label definetly makes this a [NZ] release.

A2600 [EU] entry https://vgcollect.com/item/60765 has several errors. First, the front and back box images are for the Atari 7800. Second, the title seems to be referring to Baseball released by Sears and Roebuck (see https://vgcollect.com/item/10717 for reference) due to the title descriptor calling it the "8 Tele-games label" version. Sears did not release PAL versions of their titles, but Atari, Inc. appears to have released a PAL version of their Realsports Baseball (https://www.atarimania.com/game-atari-2600-vcs-realsports-baseball_40798.html); however, finding any evidence of its existence seems to be hard to do. Even Atarimania doesn't have images of the box or cart, just a copyright 1982 multi-language manual. Lastly, it appears that the cartridge image in the entry in question is a copyright 1986 Atari Corp. variant. That doesn't mean the Atari Corp. cartridge isn't a legitimate PAL release, it's just that I can find no evidence of a PAL Realsports Baseball title, 1982 or otherwise.

Asterix for the Atari 2600 [EU] has two variants. One is has a 1983 copyright to Atari, Inc. on the box and cart, and the other has a 1985 copyright to Atari Corp. on the box and cart. The current database entry for the EU/PAL Asterix, https://vgcollect.com/browse/2600eu/2, has the 1985 copyright cartridge image, but the front page image of the 1983 copyright manual is being used as the front box image. Furthermore, the original poster used 1983 as the release date. I can upload the proper images, but my question is which will be appropriate to update the entry? Should I upload the 1985 front and back images and change the release date to 1985? Or should I update the entry with the 1983 front, back, and cartridge images and leave the release date alone?

Not sure how this happened, but -18 has the most information out of the three.

The Atari 2600 [NA] entry for Ghost Manor / Spike's Peak, https://vgcollect.com/item/265116, is a PAL title and is a duplicate of the correct PAL listing in the [EU] section: https://vgcollect.com/item/67770

The front and back artwork for https://vgcollect.com/item/35835 are the prototype boxes for the unreleased 1983 game and not the unofficial release by CGE Services. I can upload the correct boxes for the unofficial release , but I wanted to notify the mods prior to submitting the edit as this can get confusing. I'll wait to upload until one of the mods acknowledges this post.

Is this situation any different than what was determined for 271652?
To give a little background, Talvisota 75, https://www.vgcollect.com/item/272548, is an original game written and self-published by Wolfgang Kuhmann (AKA donnerkuh on AtariAge) using "donnerkuh homebrew" as the publisher. Kuhmann subsequently licensed this title to Good Deal Games in what appears to be a cart only release, https://www.vgcollect.com/item/272547. I have e-mailed Good Deal Games to get an idea of what is included in their version of the game and will edit the entry/entries with any pertinent details that will help to distinguish between the two releases
