This stuff is worth mentioning if the ROMs in question are "odd" in some way (e.g. a prototype or less common revision or something), but lists of names that ROMs were given a decade ago probably isn't all that useful.

What exactly do you mind? I ripped off all roms from the disk, extracted it, scanned with GoodTools which is updated recently (in 2012 December goodgen 3.21).

As for those phantasy star millenium dump - yeeees it is missing, There is some games that are missing and it is normal. In fact it is very difficult to find such a game that isnt included int goodtools.

Revision as of 16:27, 8 July 2013

Though I'm not opposed to the point where I can be bothered to revert the edits, I don't think listing the GoodXXXX names of ROMs used in compilations is worthwhile. Those ROM lists are old and misinformed - names and regions are frequently wrong and some dumps are missing entirely. I suppose the fact they can't spell "Millennium" might be a clue that they're not very reliable.

This stuff is worth mentioning if the ROMs in question are "odd" in some way (e.g. a prototype or less common revision or something), but lists of names that ROMs were given a decade ago probably isn't all that useful. Same applies for No-intro or TOSEC or whatever. -Black Squirrel (talk) 13:46, 8 July 2013 (CDT)
