Things to do at some stage

unless of course someone wants to do it for me

Tips for dealing with the internet

  • Most databases are wrong
  • GameFAQs is less wrong than Mobygames
  • Guardiana is less wrong than GameFAQs
  • Satakore/SMS Power are less wrong than Guardiana
  • Japanese -> English translations are mostly wrong
    • ~subtitles should not be like this~ -or this- in english names
    • ō = ou | ū = uu
    • colons are rare
    • spacing may not be correct
  • vgmdb is very wrong when it comes to names
  • watermarks are common
  • Most Dreamcast scans are fake - see spine for product code, PAL games =/= jewel case
  • modestly cleaned scans are okay. Otherwise... probably fake and wrong
  • thecoverproject.net is not a good idea for this reason (though its set of raw cover scans can be alright)
