European Support

[sysop]

Could it be possible to add European Categories to the console listings as there are quite a few games out there which are European Only releases, and some of us might only have that region in regards to that console.

[matt]

Definitely. Any specific platforms you need right now? While in BETA I've just been adding them as users request.

Don't we have a bunch of EU stuff already? I'm not sure. Also @sysop let us know what ratings systems you need for Europe. We're trying to get the edit and submission pages all in line for everyone. Thanks!

@matt, for me, it's a case of adding European support for the Atari 2600, Game Boy Advance, Nintendo Entertainment System, Nintendo 64, Xbox and Xbox 360. Other people might want to add European games for the Nintendo Wii, Commodore 64 and the ZX Spectrum, off the top of my head.

@scott, for the European Rating system, you'd be looking at ELSPA 3+, ELSPA 11+, ELSPA 15+ and ELSPA 18+.

Don't forget about PEGI and USK.

This excites me, someone to help me understand a new region of Atari stuff!  I've been having trouble making sense of it all.

Okay, so should I be using ELSPA since PEGI is not available, or does PEGI just need to be added by the admin?
if I am waiting on admin, then this should help.

@jonathonstriker Ya we need to add the PEGI ratings yet. ha, caulk it up to another thing on @matt's "to-do list". :\

[matt]

PEGI ratings are now added. Scratch that off the mythical to-do list.

[jonathonstriker]
