Title: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: TraderJake on January 01, 2007, 06:24:45 PM We strive to make RF Generation one of the best video games databases out there, but we are not able to do it alone! We need the help of all of our members and staff to make this site great. Perhaps you love the site, but find that certain titles are missing from the database. Well, don't fret, for you can submit those entries for addition to the database! How do you do that you might ask? Well, it's quite simple! In the navigation bar under search is a link called "Submit Site Info". If you can't find that link you can also click here (http://www.rfgeneration.com/PHP/submitinfo.php). There you will find links to do any of the following:
Once your submissions have been made they are subsequently reviewed by a member of staff. If the staff member finds the submission to be acceptable then it is added to the database; otherwise, it is rejected. If you find the submission system a bit confusing then I recommend that you see this FAQ (http://www.rfgeneration.com/PHP/submitinfo.php?action=faq) to learn more about the system. If you can't figure it out you can pose a question here. It's a team effort to keep the database up to date here at RF Generation, and we welcome and encourage member submissions. With your help we know that we are THE classic and modern video games database. Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It!

Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: Funk_Buddy on January 05, 2007, 07:23:40 PM I might finally get started on the rest of my JPN Saturn and JPN PS2 collection. I've been gone from most of the game related sites I visit for a few months due to work. But... look out now cause the work load has slacked off once again!
Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: Funk_Buddy on March 27, 2007, 08:14:32 PM Question about adding hardware.
I'm looking to add some JPN VMUs and controllers. Should I submit them under Submit Hardware Regional Variations or Submit Hardware Entries? Sorry to be stupid about this! To me the VMU should be region free, but have a country. So here is what I think it should be (might not be the correct format, but you get the idea): Quote Title - Visual Memory Unit [Segagaga D-Direct limited edition] Console - Dreamcast Region - Region free Country - Japan Right or wrong? Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: TraderJake on March 27, 2007, 08:23:05 PM Region Free currently can't have countries added to it. I guess perhaps that the region free region should be WORLD rather than region free.
That having been said, I honestly don't have an answer other than that current restriction. That restriction could change, but it would require a bit of coding and testing to do so. I've notified Tynstar and AndyC of this question, perhaps they can answer it better than what I would be able to. Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: TraderJake on March 27, 2007, 08:29:00 PM I've pondered this a bit more, and I am going to say that I feel that it technically has a region of Japan, as that is where it was released though it is region free. If that is the case then more than likely the US and PAL VMUs would also be Region Free, as would most every controller and such. I think that most everything in the current system for hardware has a region that implies where it was released, rather than where it works. So in that sense, this release should have a region of Japan, much like the US GameCube controller is in the US region, rather than region free.
If anyone feels that I should change region free to world please let me know. Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: Funk_Buddy on March 27, 2007, 08:33:07 PM In that context I feel you are correct. I was looking at the compatibility aspect of region, not where it's from.
When I add JPN DC system, all that come after the first will be under Submit Hardware Variations right? I swear I'm really not this stupid... it's just 10 straight 13 + hour days at work.

I swear I'm really not this stupid... it's just 10 straight 13 + hour days at work. I agree with Dave on the region free. I say the region is where it was released not just where it works. I think a lot of the earlier video gaming consoles really had no "region". About your question for the DC systems you are correct. The first one then all variants like different pack in games and different color consoles are all variants. Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: AndyC on March 28, 2007, 02:28:45 AM Just for my two bobs worth, I agree with Scott, the region is where the goods are released. The majority of the entries in hardware would work worldwide to some degree.
Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: Tan on March 28, 2007, 06:23:05 AM I'll pipe in my piece here too. I figured Region Free was a simultaneous single worldwide release. Like for example how the Atari ST had game releases that came as one language/packaging throughout the world, yet a region free DS game has specific parts numbers/packaging per region.
Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: Funk_Buddy on March 28, 2007, 08:50:06 AM About your question for the DC systems you are correct. The first one then all variants like different pack in games and different color consoles are all variants. When I add them, do I put the [variant] in or do you? Meaning do I type Sega Dreamcast [Hello Kitty Pink] or just Sega Dreamcast Hello Kitty Pink? Just trying to get it right the first time. Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database?

Post by: Tynstar on March 28, 2007, 03:40:06 PM Thanks, that helps my tired brain. :P So is your scanner :P Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: Funk_Buddy on March 28, 2007, 04:46:50 PM I did most of those scans at the end of 2005. I can't believe it was that long ago.
I've really never finished my scanning project. I've still got all my PS2 and XBox games, plus the new ones I've forgotten about. Now, if I could only figure out a way to take good pictures of the hardware we'd be set. Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: Tynstar on March 28, 2007, 06:43:16 PM If all your stuff wasn't sealed you could do games and manual also. ;)
Start opening all those games!!!!! Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: CatchFiveBats on April 22, 2007, 05:22:44 PM Hey, long time no post.
I'm trying to add a regional variation (Japanese Release) for Guilty Gear, and I'm getting a bit confused by the regional variation submission page. When I search for the title, I get no Japan-region results (obviously), so I click the US release. Then, on the form I'm supposed to fill out, there is no region, just countries (US and Canada). Is there something I'm missing? Thanks. Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: Tan on April 22, 2007, 05:54:08 PM Hey, long time no post.

Is there something I'm missing? Thanks. The regional variation is actually for sub-regions. Example would be Zelda for the Nes. There's the US one, then there's a regional variation that we Canadians got which has Mattel on the cover. You'd then make the Canadian version a regional variation of the US one since both are NTSC. It's a sort of localization distinction since NTSC is US, Canada and even Mexico in some cases and not even game is released in all three. In the case of a Japanese game, if it's a variation in that the cover is different, packaging, language etc. but was still released in Japan it's a game variation not a regional one. Japan only has one region no sub-regions. ;) If the game doesn't exist at all in the database then you choose add game entry. Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It!

Good seeing you around still, and with the technical slogan mumbo jumbo, keep it tuned to channel three. Oh yeah, and what Tan said ;) Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database?

Then search for the system you want to add a variation of. Under variation title type in the name of the colour and the blanks below fill out as much as you can then submit it for approval. for the Sonic game choose submit game variation and do the same thing. After a couple of times it's easy to do, it just seems intimidating at first. Don't worry the staff look them over before approval and can fix any mistakes. :) Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: BadKarm on May 16, 2007, 02:24:50 PM Ah. I can't believe I misspelled those when I was holding them in my hand. ><
And I just now saw the submit site info tab a second ago. Thanks a lot. Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: Tan on May 16, 2007, 02:32:09 PM Ah.

Plenty of strange game names in our database of 29,000 games, it happens all the time. Any other Questions feel free to PM a staff member or post it, we're here to help. :) Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: Grim Fandango on May 20, 2007, 11:27:47 PM I wanted to add Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for pc (the old one for IBM on the 3.5's) but it won't let me since apparently another Turtles game with the same name came out in 2003. Any way around this?
Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: Belgarath on May 21, 2007, 05:15:01 AM I had the same problem when adding an amiga game not too long back, I put the publisher in brackets to distinguish between them.
So there's Protector Protector (Mastertronic) I'd suggest you do the same for now. Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: Tynstar on May 21, 2007, 11:02:46 AM What Belgarath said. Then when it is OK'ed I can fix it.
Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: BadKarm on May 24, 2007, 10:10:02 PM Not to be nitpicky... but I didn't realize I could have a name other than my username to be put up for crediting info on the game pages... so about half of the stuff is my username and then some are my real name...
anyways to get to the point, is there a way they can all be changed to my full name? If not I can live with it, but it just seems weird to have info credited to me in one name and scans on another whilst being the same game. Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: Samada on May 25, 2007, 05:42:28 PM I just added most of my accessories to my collection the other day. I added a bunch of Intec stuff that I got for dirt cheap when I worked at Toys R Us. I bought a sound system and an AV selector (which uses the PS2), but I am unsure if that qualifies as hardware. They are both made for the PS2 and they plug directly into the system itself. I am going to try and take pictures of manuals and game scans and stuff that is missing from the database.

I know its the place of the users to add the games and systems to the database but doesn't it seam obvious to add some systems and games to all the regions databases, even in the most basic form, as we know that that place defiantly got it and it might save allot of work in the longrun.

Surely this is the PC-game?
Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: Belgarath on August 04, 2007, 08:13:45 AM Ooops, a complete f**kup on my part, no idea why I selected Amiga.
As it's got no variants/scans/owners etc I'll change it into a real Amiga game and add Syberia under PC this time! Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: lackofselfcontrol on October 22, 2007, 08:02:17 AM I myself made a mistake recently:
This is supposed to be a Playstation-game: http://www.rfgeneration.com/cgi-bin/getinfo.pl?ID=E-016-S-05290-A Removed the game Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: Tynstar on October 22, 2007, 12:39:08 PM Could you please just submit it as a PSX game and I will remove the PC one.
Thanks Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: lackofselfcontrol on November 02, 2007, 11:39:21 AM Army Men: World War
http://www.rfgeneration.com/cgi-bin/getinfo.pl?ID=E-061-S-00810-A does not exist in PAL-territory under that name (it's called Operation Meltdown here, and that's already in database) Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: Pop Culture Portal on November 17, 2007, 11:11:09 PM I'm probably completely confused and missing something. Is there any way any Joe Schmo can add a NEW hardware item to the database? Just curious because I was wondering if it would be possible to add three systems to the database. They are the Playskool Ion, the Leap Frog My First Leap Pad, and the Sears Talking Computron, but I'm not sure how I'm able to do that. ???

The submission page asks for a console name in the drop-down menu. But I'm trying to add a new console, and my submission gets rejected because I didn't pick a console from the drop-down menu. It's circular insanity! :o Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It!

So, I'm not crazy...at least in this area. Thanks! My terminology is a little off. In the past, hardware and console were the same thing and things like joysticks were accessories...but I'm learning.
Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: Izret101 on November 18, 2007, 02:20:35 PM You are perfectly sane.
Consoles are hardware. But a ultra elite staff member has to add the console ID into the database so you can add Hardware entries(including the console itself) and software. Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: Tynstar on December 20, 2007, 03:33:16 PM I will add those PCP. I got your PM's but haven't added them yet. I have a few other to add as well. DAMN ALL THOSE LEAP FROG CRAP!

Post by: xfiercepridex on February 22, 2008, 01:27:14 AM i bought an nes controller from ebay. i only know of one other person that has one and it has been marked as a 7 on a rarity scale. Information on it is scarce. how do i go about adding it. I dont know where it was released or when only what manufacturer made it. what do i do to add it.
Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: xfiercepridex on February 22, 2008, 01:40:38 AM i submited my info for the controller at least thats what some would call it from other sites...also if needed i have picture of mine and the one from the other owner, only his is different color.
Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: Tan on February 22, 2008, 02:17:04 AM Hey there, welcome to RFGen. :) If you haven't had a chance yet, please check out the guidelines for helping members submit games and hardware located here:
http://www.rfgeneration.com/PHP/about.php?action=policies I had to reject your initial submission because you used the game submission script, not the hardware one. But I did add it under the hardware script for you here: http://www.rfgeneration.com/PHP/gethwinfo.php?ID=U-027-H-00330-A One stipulation of the guidelines is that we need a Part number or UPC for each hardware submission to sort out possible duplicate entries, or as an alternative, a picture. Since you mentioned you had a picture I figure we could add it and you can submit a pic when you get the chance. If you have any extra info, feel free to submit a hardware edit of that page, it would be much apreciated. :) Here's where I found a bit of info for it: http://cgi.ebay.com/Nintendo-NES-Hot-Seat-Simulator-Game-Chair-VERY-RARE_W0QQitemZ160194921715QQcmdZViewItemQQssPageNameZRSS:B:SRCH:US:101 Mind you unless you have express permission from the seller, don't submit those pics. :P We can't deal with the legal wrangling of image theft. If your unsure about submitting images, that policy/guideline page has one for that too. EDIT: BTW, If you have permission to use the other owner's pics and theirs is indeed a different colour, then that would be considered a "Hardware Variation" and would get it's own submission for a new entry. ;) Title: Re: Game or Hardware Entry not in the database? Submit It! Post by: Chainclaw on May 01, 2008, 11:26:45 PM Hi, when I was adding games to my collection, a few were missing from the database. I went to this page : http://www.rfgeneration.com/cgi-bin/collection.pl?action=FAQ&finduser=true&folder=Collection and couldn't find any info on adding new games (go ahead and yell at me if it's there and I missed it). I would recommend you guys add something to the FAQ on that, as the games that were missing are pretty common for collectors, such as Umihara Kawase for the Super Famicom, as well as the Japanese version of Pocky and Rocky.
And yes, I did miss the giant "Submit" dropdown at the top, I kept looking under tools and stuff for information. The submission forms are a little confusing (why is there no submission comment field / notes field for whoever reviews submissions?), and the FAQ for submitting did not fully answer my questions, but I hopefully got everything entered right. Thanks! edit : it would be awesome if the search was smart enough to catch common alternate spellings. I entered Twinbee, and Detana! Twin Bee was not showing up in the search because it was entered in your database with a space. |
