Or if you don't want to clear the cache completely "Ctrl + Shift + r" should do the trick

I see in the History tab that no change have been made to that item, what if we try to edit and re-upload the covers ? Maybe they will appear then.

If uploaded them several times, but for no reasons they won't show.

Edit made, pictures uploaded.

Just approved your edits and the images are showing up correctly on my browser.  Are they working for you now as well?

I thought my PS3 was a new variant but come to find out it isn't.  So can you please remove this error entry I created.

Both items are duplicates and are wrongly listed under "Official Release".

There are already two items in the database for both of the fan translations of Fire Emblem 6:

Binding Blade: https://vgcollect.com/item/85528

Sword of Seals: https://vgcollect.com/item/130801

Merged the duplicate entries

Pacpix I found your Pac-Mancave 

Being a devout Pac-Maniac myself, I would love to have a room set up like this.

Woooooaaaah that set up is dope!  Wouldn't mind having something like that in my apartment

I know submission counts are being tracked, but I don't know if the items created are being tracked.  I think it's certainly possible this data exists or could be generated given that if you look at the item history you see the user who created the item.  Unfortunately Jason or Matt would be the only ones to answer that for sure.

Dragon Warrior on NES...I'm old.

Same except less old 

Played it on an old NES at my daycare in the early 2000s and didn't understand what the hell was going on.  I just wanted to walk to caves and shit but kept getting stopped by encounters

So I had my first lecture for one of my information systems courses today and apparently my professor was one of the programmers for the Zaxxon arcade game 

I went to his office to ask about it and apparently they pulled all that off in Fortran and Assembly.  Pretty awesome stuff, definitely did not expect to meet one of the programmers for Zaxxon today lol.

I don't personally use my 3D at all.  Won't know if you actually want it until you try it though.

EDIT:

Ton of dupes made by the same creator; I wonder if a mod should send them a message. They're strange with a hardware listing in the category. I'm assuming they're All North American

I have contacted the user about these duplicates.

Game with some sideways art

Image deleted

Is there a particular reason why these games have (Only for New Nintendo 3DS) in the game title? I'm asking because I don't think it should be there but maybe there's a reason why.

https://vgcollect.com/item/77250

EDIT: Same thing here
https://vgcollect.com/item/107667

and here
https://vgcollect.com/item/118303

Yeah I agree, not sure why that's in the titles,  I have removed it.

Game with bbfc cover and pegi rating. I might have tried edit it myself but then noticed the barcode: 5026555.05686 and decided instead post this here.

I think the creator of that item made a mistake typing the barcode, he put a . instead of a 3 (an easy mistake when you use the keypad), the barcode 5026555305686 is for the BBFC version of the game (back cover here) so the cover is right but not the rating, i've made an edit for it.

Good catch metshael.  Thanks for making the edit

This item is for the "Kama Wireless Nunchuk", but the back picture is for a wired controller.

I have removed the back picture

Loved 3D World, but also very excited for a more Mario 64/Sunshine style game again.  Going to pick up a Switch when it comes out in October.

As a Lead Developer I can tell you... THIS WILL ALWAYS HAPPEN.

Also, most of the time, the testers are clueless but think they know what is going on.

Yeah, coordinating humans is definitely not my thing. I used to be the second-in-command on a team, and since the team lead was usually always busy elsewhere, I was in charge most of the time. Often wanted to rip my hair off

I've had the opposite effect as well though. The fun thing with having been both a tester and a programmer is that I can safely say that there are clueless people in every aspect of the production 

We got clueless people on the IT/Infrastructure side of things too supporting your programs 

Luckily as far as programming goes I'm the only one in my group that really does it so I only have to deal with computer frustrations instead of people frustrations  (granted MUCH smaller scale projects of course)

Also a belated welcome back Karyann!

I'm hoping to finish it this week, but have not really felt like playing it.  Got stuck in the final set of trials.
