Having descriptors on both is not a problem.

For the ones sold at Best Buy, are there any labels on the outer shrinkwrap?

Tried to replace the existing subpar artwork for Outlast Switch [NA] with a better version:



Edit got rejected due to "incorrect artwork". Reason? You know the cover has a reversible artwork and this is one of those two sides?

Since the item can be found in sealed condition with each side of the cover facing outwards, there needs to be separate entries.

That's a joke, right?

Why would it be a joke. It is done for other items.
Otherwise, people will constantly be trying to change the artwork on the entry... which is what used to happen before we consider them to be a variation.

But for clarification: It is only a variation we recognize because the side of the cover being shown is that way on a sealed sample. Games that have reversible covers, but are were not sold with the alternate cover facing out at retail, are not recognized as a variation.

I keep getting rejected edits only in regards to alt name fields. At first it didn't bother me but it keeps happening so I'm curious to know why.

I have a suspicion as to what the reason might be but I'd like to see an explanation first.

Yeah it's been that way ever since LRG started doing the reversible cover thing. I still don't 100% agree with it but I can see why someone would want to have both versions documented on the site. Here are the thoughts I made at the time https://vgcollect.com/forum/index.php/topic,6763.msg127700.html#msg127700

Region/country of where the alt-title comes from, whether using a TLD or language descriptor, is not to be used there.

So if I'm understanding right, the region tacked on the end is the problem?

"Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's: Master of the Cards [EU]" should just be "Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's: Master of the Cards" then, correct (without quotation marks obviously)?

If so, then I've run into another issue where mods aren't on the same page. Previously I've been submitting edits on alt names and they were getting rejected by a mod because I was leaving the country/region in parenthesis "( )" instead of brackets "[ ]" but apparently the correct way this whole time was no country/region tacked on at all eh?  :P
