Interest Check: Price Guides

[BurningDoom]

I've debated doing more compendium-based projects. Such as, a compendium of every NES game. Each NES game would get its' own page, with a bunch of information about it (as if it were a wiki page, in a sense), as well as any interesting facts if there are any. Then, it could have comprehensive pricing data as a part of that page. Maybe that would be of more interest?

I'd buy it. It would do me a lot more good than a price guide would, since a listing of games is really the only reason I'd buy the price guide anyways. Prices fluctuate too much because of places like eBay and Amazon to ever produce an accurate price guide on paper in today's market.

The is the best thing I have right now for a listing of games in print-form:

http://www.amazon.com/2007-Video-Game-P ... 739&sr=8-2

It's pretty complete for U.S. games, but it's nothing more than a listing of the game title and console it's on and the prices are long out of date.

^ This. Definitely this. Hell, I'd contribute as much as I could if you wanted.

Alright. It seems like the compendium idea is the way to go. Volunteering would definitely be appreciated, I'll have to see a bit closer to the time. We were actually thinking about a profit-sharing model for contributors. I need to design the format first.

I'd help out as well. At least with the games I physically own since I can double-check the stuff.
