Title: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: NES_Rules on February 12, 2012, 05:24:30 PM This topic is for all problems related to incorrect regions. Whether an entry needs its region changed to something else or an entry deleted because that region doesn't actually exist.
Also, please keep in mind that regions can only be changed to a region in the same main region as that entry. In other words, the first letter of the RFG ID# must be the same. E.G. a game labeled as UK can not be changed to Japan or North America, but it can be changed to elsewhere in Europe such as Spain, France, etc. Some other topics that may help you out: European game with no part number or UPC?

Good spot Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: toze3 on April 28, 2016, 05:39:48 PM Changed. Good spot I saw that you had already submited the UK version (i submited the FR variation) but i don't know if the UK variation isn´t the Euro variation, and not only UK because two things: 1- the back cover have multi language description 2-the part number ends at -50 (euro release) and not -05(UK release) please check the image of satakore http://www.satakore.com/satengine/photos/photosmodif/T/T-5017H-50_1,,Sega-Saturn-Photo-1-FIFA-97-EUR-ENG.jpg so this variation should be european (regionwide) and not UK http://www.rfgeneration.com/cgi-bin/getinfo.pl?ID=E-060-S-00691-A This goes in opposite way of the great informative site satakore, but I believe this is the correct way. Possibly it could also exist an pure UK variation. Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: Schlibby on April 28, 2016, 05:58:26 PM I would be tempted to leave it at UK purely because it's the English language release.

Shadow - what do you think on this one? Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: toze3 on April 29, 2016, 06:40:53 AM The box cover and manual have the following languages :
English Spanish Italian Swedish Dutch I don't have the portuguese variation, but i'm sure that will be basead on this one. I believe that it's the EURO and not only UK variation. Or you could put the country region/flags that are in the cover/manual Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: Schlibby on April 29, 2016, 07:47:51 AM The box cover and manual have the following languages : English Spanish Italian Swedish Dutch I don't have the portuguese variation, but i'm sure that will be basead on this one. I believe that it's the EURO and not only UK variation. Or you could put the country region/flags that are in the cover/manual Ok. That changes things if other languages are also printed on the box. I'll try to have a look later when I'm on my PC (can't change regions on my phone lately for some reason) Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on April 29, 2016, 09:10:41 AM I would be tempted to leave it at UK purely because it's the English language release. But I'm biased cus I'm a Brit ;D Shadow - what do you think on this one? Well, it's not technically a "Euro" variation, because there are other releases and this specifically covers the languages specified on the box. With that being said, however, 5030935 is the generic Electronic Arts barcode for Europe (5030930 is the barcode for UK), so a particular country is not assigned to the media for lockout or other purposes. The country-specific codes are typically used when the media itself is tailored towards a particular country. I say have English, Spanish, Italian, Swedish and Dutch as the regions. FWIW, the manual is in English, which is why it's probably mislabeled by multiple places, but the media likely supports those languages. Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: toze3 on May 09, 2016, 05:51:40 PM Today i submited a variation for the Onslaught game to european megadrive database, and it was aproved as Region Free, but this isn't correct (in my opinion) because will not been realeased in Japan and also don't know if it will fit on a japonese/asia Mega drive due to diferent cartridge slot.
The game is: http://www.rfgeneration.com/cgi-bin/getinfo.pl?ID=W-040-S-00120-A In my opinion should exist the european and US variation separately and not region free. If will prevail the Region Free then the US variation should be deleted/merged in the region free, but once again i think it's better to have US and EU variations. Also note that in most websites (SEGARETRO, RETROCOLLECT,...) there are mention to EU and US releases, with the same part number and EAN. There are many games from genesis (US) that work on mega drive (EU) and vice versa, but there are diferent packing, and if you cut the right way an japanese cartridge most will work on EU/US system, and we cannot consider as region free! Here an ebay auction for the pal/EU game, but it's the same of the US variation http://www.ebay.com/itm/Videogame-ONSLAUGHT-Sega-Mega-Drive-Megadrive-Genesis-Pal-Version-/131798988880?hash=item1eafd4f850:g:n7IAAOSw2GlXJnrn This particular game was released on EURO and US market with same box, same manual, same cart. In some cases there are mention to not working with modern GENESIS/Mega Drive's due to implementation of TMMS after 1991, but i can't confirm that. I checked here http://www.rewindcollectables.co.uk/Onslaught_New_and_Sealed_Sega_Mega_Drive/p787332_7952367.aspx Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on May 10, 2016, 08:47:48 AM The game was submitted as Region Free because there are no differences between the Sega Genesis and Sega Mega Drive versions, including packaging and media, irregardless of the fact that it doesn't fit in the Japanese Mega Drive. There's no region lockout preventing the game from working in either system, and considering that everything is identical in both regions, it was determined it should go under Region Free.
We'll be merging them, as well as Super Off Road (and some of the other Accolade titles). Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: toze3 on May 10, 2016, 09:41:00 AM I understand your point for this game, but not for the super off road, and others Accolade titles (like Bubsy, etc).
The Super Off road was repacked with stickers indicating the MegaDrive and also multi-language manual. I have other Accolade titles and they all have european cover and also cartridge with european label, so i believe it's not the best option to make all region free, because they are different... Many games in europe are repacked versions of US versions(especially the EA sport games), and some from the Japanese version (like the first version of dragon ball that was released with an adaptor), i think it's not correct to put in region free just because they can work on both systems. Even so, i think it's better to have two variations for this game, it's cleanner and less confusing, despite this are the same game that was distributed both in europe and US. It's not an valid argument, but in several websites it's mentioned two variation, and not one region free... @Shadow Kisuragi You are the boss, so last word is yours! Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on May 10, 2016, 09:54:41 AM Super Off Road being repacked with things makes sense for a separate variation, as do the others.
Just about every game released these days is repackaged and region-free, media wise, but we don't classify them as such because of the packaging. We try to do our best when it comes to this, and I wasn't planning on blindly changing all of the Accolade/Ballistic releases just because one was the same. We do our research first before changing things, and it was more of a reminder to look at the rest in case they needed to be switched. Despite it being "cleaner", it doesn't make it any less true that the game is a true Regionfree entry, even down to the packaging. Is it the same EXACT game, packaging, and manual, and retailed in another Region? It's Regionfree, at least according to our System - it doesn't allow for specifying multiple Regions. If anything were different, such as with Sonic the Hedgehog SMS where the only difference is a sticker over the UPC for US retail, I would classify them differently. Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: Schlibby on May 10, 2016, 12:31:00 PM Agree with shadow.
As he points out though each game would need to be reviewed on a case by case basis Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: toze3 on May 10, 2016, 01:15:45 PM As said before, i understand the option for making this game region free, and I perfectly accept it. Just would like to see 2 distint variations, but it's not a problem at all to have the region free.
I believe this could apply most to cardbox games that need to be checked, because the majority that i know cames with european box, or have other kind of repack. This could be an exception case. My variation released in europe is equal to US variation, no sticker indicating pal system and no multilanguage manual, like super off road, both also came with cardbox that's not usual on europe. I'm aware that later 1991 this game cames with a sticker (SPECIAL PRICE) to let know that it's only compatible with megadrive/genesis made before 1991, due to TMSS introduction on newer systems (ACCOLADE was not licensed by SEGA at that time). Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: Leynos on June 08, 2016, 04:04:24 AM I can't select the USA in the region list. The US ratings are also missing
Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: Schlibby on June 08, 2016, 07:17:28 AM The US is at the bottom of the list of countries. You can also pick North Ametica (Regionwide) if sold in Mexico and Canada too. These should be available to you. Everyone can submit games for any country.
US ratings will only show up if you've picked US or North America Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: Leynos on June 08, 2016, 12:06:48 PM Yeah it was not there. I looked through it a hundred times top to bottom and North America or USA was not listed So I dunno if my Odin Sphere PS4 was submitted or not
Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on June 08, 2016, 12:11:41 PM Ryudo, you selected Australia as your country. Therefore, it locks you to Europe and Australia for your choices for countries to choose from, since those are in the "Europe" region. You would need to de-select Australia so you can choose from ALL regions/countries. By default, no countries/regions are selected.
Yes, it's in the queue but it's set to Australia. I'll get it set properly for you. Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: Leynos on June 08, 2016, 01:13:48 PM Yeah I didn't even select a country unless I hit Aussie by accident. Thank you. Sorry if it was a bother.
Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on June 08, 2016, 01:50:38 PM Not a problem. The country/region selection is probably the most confusing part of the submission form. It's on the top of my list of things to change when we modify it.

Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on March 06, 2017, 09:36:27 AM It looks like the packaging was Region Free, but they may have packed in regional manuals. The Europe boxes had a sticker on it that stated that it supports Mega Drive:
http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTYwMFgxMjE1/z/ROAAAOSwJb9WqPEF/$_57.JPG Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: toze3 on March 07, 2017, 05:27:43 AM The card box already states it suports Genesis and Megadrive systems.
That particular case (of Super Off Road) have stickers saying about MegaDrive Support and also mention the different languages of the manual. For the onslaught game, the only variation I see is that some have a sticker with an alert of the non working consoles with TMMS, or in the German case to mention the inclusion of a german manual. Really don't know about the french case, just found the pdf version of the manual. This is a almost a rare game, and it was a game that only work in non TMSS Mega drives (before September 1991) and Mega Driive was released in Europe in late 1990, and possible a low print game because of this limitation, so it's hard to be sure about the correct way to have this game submited... I sugest to have in this 2 possible ways: 1-REGION FREE (With sub-variation of German and french repack, and also TMSS disclaimer) or 2-US and EURO (With sub-variation of German and french repack in EURO variation, and also TMSS disclaimer) As stated before, i would like to see the option 2, but i'm very confortable with option 1 also. Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on March 07, 2017, 09:06:03 AM I think I'm going to go with Region Free, and having German and French versions, because the same English version is used for the UK and Australia.
Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: toze3 on March 07, 2017, 11:51:55 AM Great! So just need to be merged the US into the Region free.

Also the PS3 console says in the title God of War: Ascension (EU) I have this version, but also the real UK version, the BCES-01742. In the PS3 says in the disc information God of War: Ascension (UK) and also the game doesn't have language choice (at least in the disc revision without updates). I submited this variation, but had to add in the title the name variation name UK, that I will remove after the previous one be corrected. Also, the UK special edition is fine (http://www.rfgeneration.com/cgi-bin/getinfo.pl?ID=E-131-S-05290-B) with correct data, and also the disc is BCES-01742.

Here is a image of what the rating logo looks like: http://www.rfgeneration.com/cgi-bin/getinfo.pl?type=ex&ID=W-215-S-00420-A&number=00 Play-Asia "exclusives" 1) Soldner-X 2: http://www.rfgeneration.com/cgi-bin/getinfo.pl?ID=C-189-S-00160-A 2) Blue Rider: http://www.rfgeneration.com/cgi-bin/getinfo.pl?ID=W-215-S-00310-A 3) Cursed Castilla EX: http://www.rfgeneration.com/cgi-bin/getinfo.pl?ID=W-215-S-00420-A 4) Alchemic Joust: http://www.rfgeneration.com/cgi-bin/getinfo.pl?ID=C-215-S-00190-A 5) AereA (No entry for this one although I think it was just the standard CE with some added playing cards, the cards being the "exclusive" part). 6) Semispheres: http://www.rfgeneration.com/cgi-bin/getinfo.pl?ID=H-215-S-00030-A 7) Ghost Blade HD: http://www.rfgeneration.com/cgi-bin/getinfo.pl?ID=C-215-S-00220-A 8) Tachyon Project (no entry yet) These can be treated similarly to the LRG releases as they are numbering them but they do contain a rating on the actual game case insert. Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on July 28, 2017, 12:42:40 PM Raidou's right in that the Rating Logo is HK. A lot of "Chinese" and "Asian" releases tend to be HK or HK/TW releases because they support both Simplified and Traditional Chinese as well as English.

I guess all of these should really be switched over to HK then. Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: Raidou on July 29, 2017, 02:52:18 AM Technically, the ratings logos are Taiwanese (Hong Kong doesn't rate games - nor does China ATM).
That said, HK and TW releases tend to be sold across the region, hence, "Hong Kong (regionwide)".

Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: toze3 on February 09, 2018, 09:56:43 AM Don't know if it's correct to discuss this here, but here he goes
Just to know whats the best way to classify the region of the Street Fighter 15th anniv. Pads. http://www.rfgeneration.com/PHP/gethwinfo.php?ID=U-072-H-00340-A http://www.rfgeneration.com/PHP/gethwinfo.php?ID=U-072-H-00330-A http://www.rfgeneration.com/PHP/gethwinfo.php?ID=U-072-H-00360-A http://www.rfgeneration.com/PHP/gethwinfo.php?ID=U-072-H-00350-A They all are in USA region, but I found many in Europe in two variants, one with "Playstation oficial product" label and otner with the street fighter 15th anniver. Label . The ones with PS official product label have 3 languages (EN, SP, FR) [img width=500 height=375]https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/sksAAOSwe6FaLAwC/s-l500.jpg[/img] [img width=500 height=375]https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/pjAAAOSwyYFaLAwG/s-l500.jpg[/img] The one with SF15th Anniversary logo on front have 6 languages (EN, FR, SP, GER, JP, IT) . I believe all are basead on the PS official ones, with stickers on front and back of the box [img width=500 height=375]https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/doMAAOSwsYpaLAv6/s-l500.jpg[/img] [img width=500 height=375]https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/~t8AAOSwUYNaLAwB/s-l500.jpg[/img] I bought 3 from UK and FR and all have the PS official logo, and yesterday bouth another (in Portugal) one with SF15th anniv. Logo. This one also have another sticker with Portuguese description. My question is, should this be modified to Region wide or not? I believe this also justifies the creaction of 2 variants, the ones with PS official product label and another with Street Fighter 15th anniversary label. What you think ?? EDIT: The SF15th Anniversary version have slight different UPC/EAN, so it needs a variation. Should all be considered world wide region wide, or the PS official logo variation get USA plus a PAL variation, and the one with SF15th anniversary logo gets a WW region variation Because also have japonese language ? My vote is for this scenario! Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: Duke.Togo on February 20, 2018, 07:38:41 PM I think the best way to differentiate between these is variants for UPC/EAN differences. If the same UPC/EAN was sold in multiple regions, they should be listed as a worldwide release.

And following the typical rules Belgium should be removed (normally for simplification smaller European countries don’t get added. So despite most British releases also coming out in Ireland we don’t normally add Ireland, as an example) Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: Raidou on May 18, 2018, 01:25:27 AM I suggest we put this one off for a while, as the entry is more accurate as is.

"Worldwide" is dead wrong, but GPS releases weren't limited to Spain / Portugal. GPS coded products aren't exactly tied to a specific country, instead a GPS print run of 5000(?) was split up and issued to European distributors who wouldn't be able to shift a full print run, usually because they were catering to smaller markets (eg. Greece, Portugal, Italy). But not always. They are English language products sold in non-English speaking countries with a secondary manual in that country's native language (produced by distributor), and the box will have some form of stickerage to identify distributor or country. For example, the Portuguese distributor, "Chaves, Feist & Co", would have a sticker on the back of the box with a Portuguese description covering the English and GiG (Italy) would have their logo. The consequence of the above is that you cannot accurately identify the county of origin of a GPS-coded product by the base contents alone- you need either the secondary manual or a box WITH the distributor's stickers intact. This can be a pain because you can often find CIB GPS-coded games on eBay that don't have stickers/secondary manuals because they wee found forgotten in some warehouse somewhere. In these cases, the most accurate you can narrow down their region to is "Europe (Regionwide)". Also, to anyone reading this: avoid using "Worldwide" for physical releases! It's almost always wrong and cannot be easily fixed.

Regarding the changing the region thing, that is only for new variations of an existing game. Once an entry is created you can only change countries within the region. You can change eg Europewide to UK. I’ve havent actually tested if that works the other way. You can’t change, for example, Europe to North America though. Where we have to change region (for example those early limited runs) we have a process built in for doing that. It’s fairly quick to do and we can move over collectors who own the games. The tricky part though is moving the images which is a more manual process only a few of us have the ability to do. Thanks for the offer of creating new games for the Limited Runs but unfortunately it won’t be helpful.

I get what Raidou is saying but we need consistency within consoles. With PS4 we do flags/box languages = countries Using box languages/flags is a very useful guideline, especially for those "Not for Sale in the UK" variants you see floating around. If there is no other reference point on the cover, then assuming English = UK is a reasonable compromise. That said, it should not be used as an absolute rule, as there are usually other pieces of information that lets us know where a variant was/was not sold. A lot of variants sold in Scandinavia or the Netherlands use English language covers (sometimes exclusively), but can be identified as Scandinavian/Dutch through other means. Similarly, French language on covers can sometimes mean it was sold in France, sometimes Belgium, sometimes Switzerland. French also appears on Middle Eastern variants (which are also PEGI-rated). It is incredibly easy to tell if a game was or was not sold in France, so assuming French = France is kinda silly. German also is not confined to Germany, but we can tell whether or not a variant was sold in Germany due to the USK. I understand the need for a consistent set of rules, but we still need to be mindful of accuracy of data.

Another question for modern games (for me modern games are >2000 ehehe) this case they define the country basead on the online short manual and cover language (UK), is correct? http://www.rfgeneration.com/cgi-bin/getinfo.pl?ID=E-189-S-00670-A I have a copy of this that have in the cover Portuguese and Spanish descriptions (not english) and the online manual are the same, so by that rule the country list is the same, except without UK, because is not on the online manual or cover. Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: toze3 on February 27, 2019, 07:01:04 AM And also have the Portuguese/Spanish variant of this game
http://www.rfgeneration.com/cgi-bin/getinfo.pl?ID=E-189-S-00800-A But in this case the country is the language of the cover only, and do not care about the flags on the online manual.

By our standard rules they would be UK because the text on the box is all English and (less importantly tbh) the code is UKV. I guess SL decided the games are more marketable in English than German. But by the "Limited Run" rules they should be German like the other SL games because its where the company is based. For consistency I guess the latter is the better choice. I just think if we do that though we will forever more have people trying the add UK versions. That can be largely negated though by using a "UKV Version" variation title.

LRG releases should be US, not region free Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: Schlibby on August 14, 2020, 08:35:46 AM www.rfgeneration.com/cgi-bin/getinfo.pl?ID=W-027-S-00430-A LRG releases should be US, not region free This is annoying. After I spent all that time getting rid of the region free ones. Thanks for the heads up.

Should be regionwide Asia release Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: ale_cf on February 05, 2021, 04:51:44 PM Hi! I'm new here and I guess that's where my problem belongs? Apologies if not.
I'm trying to submit data to a brazilian regional variant of the game Adam's Venture Chronicles, but it doesn't show Brazil as a valid region in the menu boxes. Could someone add it there so I can submit it? Thanks a lot :) Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: Bear78 on April 20, 2021, 02:18:12 PM But really it should be the same as this one: http://www.rfgeneration.com/cgi-bin/getinfo.pl?ID=E-095-S-05270-A Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: toze3 on April 21, 2021, 03:44:35 AM I submitted this entry as "Europe (Region Wide)": http://www.rfgeneration.com/cgi-bin/getinfo.pl?ID=E-095-S-05880-A But really it should be the same as this one: http://www.rfgeneration.com/cgi-bin/getinfo.pl?ID=E-095-S-05270-A DONE.

I've addressed your region changes above. There's a few I didn't do. These are the ones NOT crossed out. Reasons being:
Dreamcast - almost all of our sega games are listed as Europewide as there was only generally one release for the whole continent. Starting to change this would open a huge can of worms that I don't think needs to be opened. I did change the second Dreamcast game you listed though as there were variations within Europe. Nintendo special editions - For modern consoles Nintendo do a single version of the special edition for all of the continent. Generally this covers all the biggest countries/languages. So setting is as Europewide keeps it tidier and means it not rotating through 10 different flags. If they did release 2 versions of a special edition within Europe with different box languages then I would of course break them down into the countries. Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: kaysow on March 09, 2022, 07:32:43 AM Thanks, and fair enough. I'm especially unfamiliar with the Dreamcast - only picked up a handful of titles for whenever I get around to getting a console. I guess Sega Mega Drive works about the same way? The same 8 or so languages are printed on the back covers of all my copies, it's never just english or anything more local than that.

Games released by these companies are always listed as being from the country that company is based, and that country only. Regardless of languages on box etc. So all Red Art Games (if added correctly) should be France only Only exception is if a company releases say an NTSC and a PAL version of a game. In that case region can be used to differentiate Title: Re: Fixing Regions - Report wrong regions here Post by: Bear78 on July 15, 2024, 08:42:18 PM Fixed.
