These are two very similar entries for Yakuza 6: The Song of Life - Essence of Art Edition (PS4) [EU]:
https://vgcollect.com/item/143951
https://vgcollect.com/item/142729

The barcode for these two entries are different, but I honestly have trouble finding any information about the barcode 5055277030583 at all. If someone is able to find the proper release country then the correct TLDs can be added to the title, otherwise it is maybe better to just remove this entry completely and keep entry 143951 as the new main entry.

Keep them both, Sharandan has put the wrong pictures on there. 5055277030583 is the UK version without the french line under Essence of Art Edition!

leonefamily, please edit your post to have the links to the original items and the duplicates so they can be merged together. I can't just delete all of those entries since people have got them in their collections already.

Done. I edited my original post.

Starting from Xbox Demo issue 65, all demo discs work exclusively for Xbox 360, thus the following issues are duplicates in the OG Xbox category and originals in the Xbox 360 category. But most of those duplicates actually have more info (such as having a picture) over the Xbox 360 category, so you may just keep the duplicates and transfer them over to the Xbox 360 side, and delete the already existing Xbox 360 items. It's up to you.

The Duplicate has a better picture and I would think the name should be like the duplicate is listed (except formatted correctly with a hyphen instead of a colon). The original has the full name listed as an alt name probably because the spine has just the name without the subtitle.

Good find. I found the appropriate cover for 5055277030583 which I have submitted as an edit. Can a moderator please remove the incorrect back box art of this entry?

I have found the back art for entry with EAN: 5055277030583 https://vgcollect.com/item/142729
but not the front. So the front is removed.
The issue here is that I can find the one with this barcode only for sale in Sweden. No larger picture of back to be able to read it, no actual photo.

The other one previously marked [EN][FR] is [NL] and has been changed.

Note that there is an Italian release with EAN: 5055277030538
It can be seen here: https://ebay.it/itm/383033439162

BUT, the issue is the item 142729 with 44 in collection is NOT the UK release. UK EAN is 5055277030491, which does not have an entry made for it.

Above are not dupes.

Whether or not the discs work with XBox 360 or original is info for description. The branding on the item determine the category. When an item has dual branding where backwards compatibility is present, the newer branding wins. So any item that is marked Xbox and Xbox 360 is an Xbox 360 item. Same goes for Xbox One, or Atari items, etc.

Are you sure 5055277030552 is just NL? The cover also shows French text while they do not speak French there. Usually the version sold in the Netherlands is the same as in Belgium and France. I also see Belgian and French web shops pop up when doing a Google search for the barcode.

I believe the cover art I submitted but was denied for 5055277030583 is correct. On eBay you can find auctions with this cover art for the version with this barcode: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Yakuza-6-The-Song-Of-Life-PlayStation-Ps4-/223660634887

Considering that the 'main entry' on VGcollect for this game is entry 142729 and that people are probably using it for the UK release anyway, why not change the barcode into the UK release? If someone wants to add a 5055277030583 or 5055277030538 to the database at a later point in time they can always do so.

It is probably [NL][BE] but certainly not France. France get their own version that is not the same as the release for French speaking countries outside France. The main difference is France requires the red Attention text block, which is missing from those releases. You can see what the France version looks like on Ebay.fr.

Can't change 142729 to the UK version because the EAN was put on when the entry was created.

PS: That reject happened because I was working on those entries at the time the edit came in.

You may be right. I actually own 5055277030552 myself, so I checked and it says for distribution in the Benelux region (Belgium, Netherlands, Luxemburg) on the back.

Should I submit the cover art for 5055277030583 again?

@tripredacus Thanks for dealing with the lastest duplicates batch, but don't forget the duplicates that I posted on page 23! They are a different batch

I think the only front art I saw for that release was a stock photo. If we have to use that stock photo... I GUESS... but no idea if the actual cover matches it or not.

Sorry, aliensstudios already laid claim to that. He made you do the work, he should reap the rewards. :p
