  1. Here's an interesting one: In the database, it has entries for Rapid Reload (Europe) and Gunner's Heaven (Japan) for the PS1. They are the same game so one of them needs to be deleted but I'm not sure which it should be. There's no guidelines for region priority if it does not include NA, yet has multiple English names since the Japanese version is an English name. Normally, i would expect Europe to have priority, but the Japanese title is in English so it also makes sense for that to be the title, since it is the original version. Thoughts?
  2. Cool. That seems to be the only NEC system without it.
  3. Sounds good. I read the guidelines but they place emphasis on NA so I wasn't sure in these situations. Follow-up question: What region should the alternate names be considered for these scenarios?
  4. How should a game title be handled when it is released worldwide on one platform but not on another? ex) The Last Blade is the NA title and Bakumatsu Roman: Gekka no Kenshi is the Japanese title. On several platforms it only had a Japanese release. For these platforms, should the NA title be used or the Japanese? The previous question can be extended across a series as well. ex) NA has Mega Man and Japan has Rockman. For Mega Man & Bass (NA names)/Rockman & Forte (Japanese names), which is more appropriate for this Japan exclusive game? Are English translated titles more appropriate if there is only a Japanese title? ex) Majuu Ou is the official Japanese title for a SNES/SFC game but it is commonly referred/translated to as King of Demons by English speakers.
  5. GamesDB will let you request changes to any field except the name field. The platform specifically in question is currently called PC Engine SuperGrafx. This is inconsistent with other platforms since it is not preceded by the manufacturer. It should be NEC PC Engine SuperGrafx (or NEC SuperGrafx if you want the short version) to follow this standard.
