Title: Catalog Database...
Post by: MaHaBe on November 13, 2019, 07:44:24 AM
How about a Way to store the various Company Catalogs that came with Games or Consoles back in the Day.
For me Specifically, would be like the Various Atari Lil Books, Parker Bros. Had one.
Even the System Manuals and other such items.
Is there a way we can add these to our Collections so we can keep better track of them?

Thanks
Love the Site!!

Its been discussed before about having a Literature database: strategy guides, magazines etc.

There seems to be a lot of support for the idea but unfortunately there's no one available to actually do the work to add this

Is there something we can do to help? Is this site like Wiki? where we can update items?

Probably nothing you can do to help unless you can do coding and are willing to donate time. This is beyond my technical knowledge and beyond my "clearance level" (I just approve submissions). But if anyone ever thinks they can assist with the site I'm sure the high ups would be more than happy to speak with them

There has been discussion about books/manuals/guides in the past. The biggest part of the issue is that we most likely need some database work done on the back end to support it. There have been some conversations about it though.
