I really appreciate the effort you had put in

I really wish I still had all of the spreadsheets

I'm not exactly sure that I would call Dain one of the fathers of video game collecting. Yeah he started a site and built a database, but the users ultimately filled it in. He was asking for scans back in the day for the project from other users of various forums while still using the Giskard name. So while he did contribute towards things, he will never be a true pioneer or what not compared to folks like Mike Etler, imo anyways.

 

He did little for the database outside of NES, I did a majority of anything Japanese for the database, and I know a few other people really helped with filling in other consoles.

That is something I can understand. I am doing something similar with Dragon Quest. Just nothing tied to the Famicom or Super Famicom eras, as my earliest pieces are GBC. 

And I also wish you luck. 1,053 licensed titles (I guess includes package variants) is not a small task to tackle! 

It's really not but if you go at it with smaller goals i.e. publisher/developer collections it makes it seem not so overwhelming

When I originally did the Japanese databases for NA, I had spreadsheets with all of this info, that was long ago and those spreadsheets are long gone...

Woot & welcome! Still collecting homebrews?

Sort of a different question, but I also what happened to other NA folks that don’t seem to have made it over yet like skylersz, portnoydtwins, only_none, Shags, and Kells

I'm here now

I was shags2dope50187 in the early days of NA and changed my name to just Shags shortly after
