First off, there's no Mario Kart 8 for either of the 4 regions.

Secondly, Mario Kart 7 for the 3DS is named simply "Mario Kart" for the Japanese and Australian region and "Mario Kart 3D" for Europe. They should all be changed to Mario Kart 7.
Done and done.

Ferris, gonna do that list over the weekend. Sorry for the delay.

These are already in the database under each game's entry (in the database as map, added to the main game entry). The issue right now is that the images are messed up -- they're in there, but I'm trying to fix getting to them (you can get to them on the admin side, just not on the public side at the moment).

I took some pictures of Uncle Tusk's Tetris World Championship carts from last year to add to the database, but those games aren't in there. I have a feeling a handful of the games I have on my aftermarket price guide might be missing. Who would I work with to add those games/info? Darktone, can you do that?

-------------------------

My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw Ferris pass out at the Let's Play Gaming Expo last night. I guess it's pretty serious.

Oh, my WTB thread is very popular. The sportos, the motorheads, geeks, sluts, bloods, wastoids, dweebies, Richard craniums - they all adore it. They think it's a righteous thread.
I'd also like to add that I've got my father's gun and a *scorching* price guide for aftermarket Nintendo games.
Between Dragon Warriors and nothing... I'll take Dragon Warriors - for any of my FT/FS/FO items.

Here's an odd one. If you check this page here, you'll see 297 N64 games listed:

http://nintendoage.com/index.cfm?...

There's only 296 releases though. For whatever reason a page exists for a poster of Wayne Gretzky 3D Hockey 98:

http://nintendoage.com/index.cfm?...

Could that entry be deleted? Posters should not count as games. Also, that poster doesn't even exist, the original Wayne Gretzky 3D Hockey had a poster but not Wayne Gretzky 3D Hockey 98.

Caltron should either be moved back to an 8 cart or dinosaur peak should be moved down to a 7. Caltrons did have some surface back in 2011 or so in mexico but that was still relatively small and their appearance is less than f2, and dinosaur peak had the influx of the south american copies. But regardless f2 cart is more common.

I think its more fitting as one of these. F2 7/8/8 Caltron 7/7/7 Or F2 8/9/9 Caltron 8/8/8 Miracle Piano is cheap and mostly unwanted, 6 may be where it should be idk? I see it less often than other 6's. But then there is a cheap stash online.

Changing rarity on the database causes an uproar. I have my opinions on it but I can't just change them, not unless a Mod, Admin or Dain gives the green light. Trust me, I want to sort the out but for now it's either ask a Mod or make a poll.

I'm sure this has been discussed many times before -- but I was looking through the database recently and I noticed that while most of the publishers appear to be correct, it looks like a TON of the developers are incorrect. Some of them are even just downright strange and I have no idea where the information came from.

Rather than just complain about it I'm willing to help with the database. I think I saw in another thread where Dain asked for help to give access.

I don't even want to bother with the rarity numbers because I know those are somewhat and controversial anyway. I also have some images that can be uploaded to the database as well for games that don't have some information.

I helped a bit on the playstation database back when it was playstationcollecting, and I wouldn't mind to help here as well. It is a bit embarrassing that there are so many inaccuracies.

... FYI, the scans for Wario's Woods (France)... are from the Italian release. Whoops.

Someone should move them to where they're supposed to go.

Yeah. Seems like a mixed entry. Thanks for pointing it out.

Huge thanks to Dangoo87 for sending me over 400 pictures for over 40 parts to the Wii U PAL database. Took longer than it should. As always, got anything you want added, PM me.

I found this glaring error in the database just now:

Nintendo Power #006 (May/June 1989) (cover: TMNT III: The Manhattan Project) (poster: mega man II poster)

Mmhmm, database. I'll believe that TMNT III came out in 1989 when my shit turns purple and smells like rainbow sherbert.

Should just be TMNT.

For N64 i'm missing the Region Code "NOE". E.g. i have "Mission: Impossible" with Code "NUS-NMID-NOE", which i can't add to my collection(and some other games too) right now.

Edit:
Ah and "SHVC" needs to get added for Super Nintendo please. Like for Japanese "Super Mario RPG" it would be: "SHVC-ARWJ-JPN". So most Japanese SNES games start with SHVC.

Edit2:
Another one for SNES: "ESP"
like for in my case "Winter Olympics: Lillehammer '94" has "SNSP-W4-ESP", likely Spanish.

Edit3(2015-01-13):
One for GBC:
Also NOE, many, like for Pokémon Gold: "DMG-AAUD-NOE".

Thank you!

I just picked up a 5 screw Ikari Warriors and it looks like the database doesn't have a variant of that. Ikari Warriors is there, but the picture is of a 3 screw. I'm guessing I didn't strike gold witht the next rare 5 screw variant, so I am just requesting a variant entry. Do I need to provide a picture for proof?
