Romtable

Bad dumps, overdumps, etc.

Are we also using this template to catalog ROM dumps that are known to be bad dumps and overdumps of the same version of particular builds? I originally did so for two bad dumps of Sonic Chaos over on Sonic Retro, but later decided to comment them out just in case. --SorachiJirachi (talk) 15:58, 10 December 2019 (EST)

I'd prefer not to. ROM databases can keep track of all the failed attempts at dumping ROMs - we're just interested in the real thing -Black Squirrel (talk) 16:12, 10 December 2019 (EST)

The only exception I'd make is when the bad dump is the only dump. - Hivebrain (talk) 16:27, 10 December 2019 (EST)

Ah, gotcha. In that case, I've removed the bad dumps from the list entirely. --SorachiJirachi (talk) 16:34, 10 December 2019 (EST)

DS and 3DS ROM dumps

When it comes to ROM dumps of Nintendo DS and 3DS games, No-intro records hashes for both encrypted and decrypted ROMs. If we are to include hashes for dumps of DS/3DS Sega games, should we use the encrypted hashes or the decrypted ones? --SorachiJirachi (talk) 15:55, 14 April 2021 (EDT)
