Need Help Building Dreamcast Game Database

Post by **racketboy** » Sun Dec 30, 2007 7:59 pm

I'm getting started populating data in the upcoming database.
I want to start with just one platform to get us started, so I thought we'd begin with the Dreamcast.
I have a spreadsheet with (hopefully) every Dreamcast game published that already has a number of fields populated like Developer, Publisher, Release Year, Regions, etc, but I need to fill in fields for the genres for each game (up to three genres can be listed), gameplay dimensions (2D or 3D), number of players, and ESRB rating.

I have uploaded the spreadsheet to Google Docs and if you are interested in helping fill this out, you will need a Google account and let me know the email address associated with the Google account so I can invite you. (you'll also need at least 20 forum posts here to get an invite)

Let me know what you think...

I'm in too, I have a pretty large DC collection plus most of the rare EU/Jap only games in my collection which i'm sure will come in handy

.

You should put in the artwork for the games too. I'd be willing to scan all the covers/instructions if you want?

I hope to have artwork and screens included, but that will come later. I've got the contents of the Dreamcast cover scan torrent on Underground Gamer.

I might actually already have that...
I don't want to put peripherals on there just yet -- I want to get the most essential stuff on there first.
