I have listed the games multiple times on different forum pages
http://vgcollect.com/item/68397 Aqua Panic [EU] - is in the wii u section where it doesnt belong!
http://vgcollect.com/item/34471 Just Dance: Disney Party [EU] - is in the wii u section where it doesnt belong!
http://vgcollect.com/item/55453 Tenchu Shadow Assassin [EU] -  is in the wii u section where it doesnt belong!
http://vgcollect.com/item/60763 Western Heroes [EU] -  is in the wii u section where it doesnt belong!
http://vgcollect.com/item/70248 [EU] Why is this version here?

A bit late, but please don't post games listed on the wrong system here. Just edit them.

These two entries are technically the same game, but they've been named differently.
http://vgcollect.com/item/32893 <-- This one is listed by its original Japanese name.
http://vgcollect.com/item/53665 <-- This one is listed by its localized English name.
Since it's the entry for the Japanese version, should it not be listed by its romanized Japanese name rather than the English one? I think there could be some confusion created by using the English names for the Japanese entries, because not all of the Legend of Heroes/Eiyuu Densetsu games are numbered the same. For example, the third game in the series is numbered as the second in its English release and the fifth is numbered as the third in English.

I would go with the original listing, since it is a Japanese release and that means the original name needs to go first, and the alternate English name can be put in its respective category.

You guys know your style guide ;) You're both correct. The Romanized Japanese title would take precedence in the JP region. The rest of the Legend of Heroes games should be Eiyu Densetsu as well, with the translated name Legend of Heroes as the alt text.

The Alternate Title field is used to list other titles that the game is known as in other regions or the most common name.

  • Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance (US / EU) would have Castlevania: Byakuya no Concerto (its Japanese title)
  • Gunbullet (Japan) would have Point Blank (its US title)
  • Fahrenheit (Europe) would have Indigo Prophecy (its US title)

Sounds good. :) I'll submit some edits to fix the rest of the Legend of Heroes entries in the PlayStation Portable [JP] section. I do believe that was the only dupe due to the naming issues for the series. The rest should just need to have the names fixed.

Umm I created http://vgcollect.com/item/71485 but then realised that it already exists under Wario Land 4. Sorry about that.
