SavingPrincess Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Is there any way for LB or some plugin to scrape ROM metadata for regional release dates based on the region of the ROM? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 In most cases where possible, I believe LaunchBox will prioritize the media that matches the ROM file automatically, though it will still download everything first. It just prioritizes it when it displays it on your games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see. Currently the LaunchBox Games Database doesn't support country-specific release dates. So it just grabs whatever release date is listed there. Unfortunately there's not currently any way to change that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotcha... consider it a feature request then! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
