I love Final Fight, but damn, if Streetwise is a requirement count me out!
Maybe a great series with a dud like that should have a substitute game option.

FF Double Impact is fan-friggin-tastic. I wish all old games being ported to newer systems
had a dev that cared that much about it working on them.

For owning special carts: There's a special "game" with a cable that allows you to tune a Aprilia SR 50 Ditech Scooter with a Game Boy.
"You can use the interface to de-restrict, read fault codes and engine information. That's it. No tweeking or other fun stuff like that."

They're apparently only sold to Scooter dealers, and one was sold in Denmark for 350 USD in 2007. I'm pretty sure they're quite the rarity.

I've said this before and I still feel strongly about it. Since some of the rares in the NES collection have their own icons (Myriad, Cheetahmen 2, Stadium Events, NWC), I definitely think there should be a few for the SNES.
-DK Competition cart
-Starfox Super Weekend
-Exertainment Mountain Bike Rally/Speed Racer (absolutely deserves it's own icon)
-3 Ninjas Kick back.

Why does mbr/sr need to be cib? It's tough enough to get cart only.

After taking a closer look at this one... I'd agree with you.  For some reason I was thinking this game was more common than it is.  This award has been changed to include loose copies as well as CIB copies.  Thanks for the heads up.

I didn't know where to put this, but one of the awards has a typo. The one for the 25+ Pirated Games spells "Onwer".

In the sense that it isn't a game series in the purest form. They're games based on things that were originally other forms of entertainment. (comics, movies, tv, etc.)

Since the M82 has its own icon shouldn't the M8 have one too?

I've always wondered something, is it possible to get two awards for one set: complete cart-only and complete CIB? I know I've seen it before, but I can't remember where. Is it just the case that they first only had a loose set, then completed it, and the mods (?) just never got around to deleting the previous one? Or does that person have two complete sets?

I like the suggestions, but having them as awards.. it just seems like it could become oversaturated quickly.  I mean, I could suggest Guitar Hero:

GH1
GH2
GH80s
GH3
GH Aerosmith
GH World Tour
GH5
GH Van Halen
GH Metallica
GH Warriors of Rock
GH Smash Hits
Band Hero
DJ Hero
DJ Hero 2
GH On Tour
GH On Tour Decades
GH On Tour Modern Hits
...

Funny that the thing that killed this franchise is Activision's habit of just spitting out new games for the series in short succession.  But anyway, I don't even know if I'd be in favor of this list as an award series.  There are 17 games there, all but two are on Nintendo consoles.  But it just feels too modern, and I think most people here on NA wouldn't give two shits about a guitar hero collection.

I know of one person with a CIB and Cart collection icon. I wondered the same myself but never pursued asking why. Im not ratting this member out though, lol.

The icon rules are pretty liberal...but we do our best to keep them consistant.
As for the loose/cib set...
If a member has a CIB set, they get the CIB icon. The cart icon should not be issued. If they have a 2nd complete set cart only, then yes they get the cart icon.
This also comes into effect when you see the "uploader" icons.
If a member uploads 25 images to the database, they get the 25 icon...
if they upload 100, they get the 100 icon, but not 25 or 50...since they have to complete those steps to reach 100.

We try to keep track of them all, but with 20 plus mods updating individual awards and almost 10K members...a few will get overlooked.

The award for "Accessories 100" IS that just 100 random Accessories for Nintendo? or all random accessories? and is 100 different or can there be multiples.. For example I have 200+ controllers so would that qualify?

To answer your question, you need 100 unique accesories for Nintendo brand systems...it can be over ANY nintendo console over the years.
You just can't have 100 D-pad controllers and call it good...you can however count varients on the controllers...3 party, d-pad with refurb kit installed, beeshu ect....

Mana Series Icon?

-Final Fantasy Adventure OR Sword of Mana
-Secret of Mana
-Legend of Mana
-Children of Mana
-Dawn of Mana
-Heroes of Mana


Because Mana is awesome. And a little tree icon would be really cool.

(ok so Friends of Mana and Secret of Mana 2 are JP only releases i just realized and so I deleted them, and now that list isn't as extensive... hmmm... I still think a tree icon would be awesome.)
