I've added info for at least 50 games. Gonna have a break and get some sleep. It's 3AM here!

I've added an extra column documenting how many vmu blocks a game uses so don't forget to add that info in if you have access to it!

Thanks man -- I'm researching some of the obscure Japanese ones gathering what info I can...

I made a spreadsheet of all the Sega first party Japanese releases once, with the HDR numbers and release dates, if you want it I'll e-mail you it. Also if you want high quality cover scans, I have a whole bunch which I uploaded here (147 in total so far), which you might find handy:

Sweet! I might use them for my own personal use (if that's ok?), i'm gonna make a DC wallpaper out of them and have been looking for hi-res scans, i was planning on just scanning my own covers but it means digging my scanner out and I just couldn't be bothered until recently.

I have one of those yearly-released Japanese game guides from 1999. If anyone needs info on some early Japanese Dreamcast games I can look and see what they say about it.

Go for it! I scanned all those so anyone can use 'em.

You don't happen to have a zip file of them all, do you?

Once we get the core data in, I will have a review system added that people can upload reviews from magazines and such. That might be a good fit for those.

How do you want to realize it?
