    I don't know what update frequency has to do with anything, especially when neither thread has had a post since March, but of course "no one is under any obligation to pass over information;" that goes without saying.  But we're a community here that shares a common interest and passion, so the more this information is shared, the better off we all are in the end.

    Anyway, I went through my thread and couldn't find those titles, but since he does clearly state that he "opened factory sealed copies to confirm their contents," just as you quoted, I'm going to take him on his word and add them to the sealed contents thread.

    @Trifecta: if for whatever reason you don't want your information on these games added to the sealed contents list or thread, please let me know in the next couple of days and I will gladly follow your wishes.  Thanks.

    I don’t mind the information I gather being shared, Morbis. Personally I don’t want to double post information when once will suffice. Why do I need to post the same information twice? Do you get what I’m saying? The people who need the information will find it eventually.

  2. I'm using www.vgcollect.com

    - I like the interface

    - I can add titles not already there

    - I can edit existing entries with more accurate information

    - Once I create a list on there, I can export it

    - There's different types of lists like collection list, wish list, sell list, now playing list

    - It's mobile friendly.

    There's a lot to like about it. It's the best video game collection app I've seen. 

    Here's an example of someone's collection list: www.vgcollect.com/masamune

    Here’s another few. Again let me know if there are any issues. 
     

    Question: Is there any difference between the black sleeves (I.e. flat black vs smooth black)? Also are there example pics of the difference between the standard and foil Nintendo sleeves? I have tons of these but have never noticed a difference. 

    Thank you for your submissions! I posted them on the opening thread.

    Flat Black and Smooth Black mean the same thing. On Wiz's Game Contents FAQ, he describes most of the dust sleeves as "flat". I never understood why they were called that. Most NES sleeves feel "smooth" to the touch, which is why I describe them as such.

    Austin gave a great description of the sleeves in another post on this site which I will quote here:

    "All Nintendo published games had the Nintendo sleeve.
    All third party licensed games had a plain black sleeve.
    It's possible some other companies may have used Nintendo sleeves as well but we need more info on this.

    There are actually 3 different types of sleeves for both Nintendo and Third Party:
    1. Nintendo sleeve with smooth cracked design (All games released between 1985-1990)
    2. Nintendo sleeve with a textured design (All games released between 1990-1993)
    3. Nintendo sleeve with a textured design but the logo is shiny (All games released between 1993-1994)

    1. Black sleeve with smooth cracked design (All games released between 1986-1991)
    2. Black sleeve with a textured design (All games released between 1991-1994)
    3. Black sleeve with a very rough texture and cheap feel to it. These came with the few licensed games not manufactured in Japan by Nintendo like Overlord, Wizards & Warriors III, and Terminator 2 for example. (1991-1993?) Need help with these releases dates."

    Hey folks! I’ve been around here and NA for a few years but mainly in the marketplace. I’ve been using Wiz’s guide for a while now, especially in the past year as I’ve concentrated on completing my boxed games. Thanks Wiz for your work on the guide, I really appreciate it!

    It’s nice to meet all of you like-minded people!

    Here’s a pic of my complete Abadox as per the guide. Box isn’t perfect on this one but it’s all there. 

    Let me know if this is the kind of thing you’re looking for and I’ll go through the rest of my games as well.

    Thank you! I just added it to the list! If you have any more not already on the list, please post the pictures. Thanks!

    I haven't looked through everything, but I did notice that the Zoda's Revenge picture may have the wrong dust sleeve.  That looks like a standard Nintendo sleeve, not the late era foil one.  It's entirely possible that it's a trick of the lighting, but it doesn't look right to me.

    It's probably bad lighting. I'll take a new pic when I get a chance.

  6. I use www.vgcollect.com like DorkOverlord. It's the best video game database website that I've found. You can create collection, wish, sell and now playing lists. If a game you have is not in the database, you can create an entry for it. You can write notes about your items, date purchased, cost, and it has a checkbox you can use to designate if you have the cart, case, manual and other inserts. And once you created a list on the website, you can export that data into .csv format. It also has a forum for discussion or questions on how to use the database.

    My collection is here so you can get a feel for how it looks. I like the interface more than any other database site I've seen.

    If you can beat vgcollect, then I'd say you would have one of the best game databases around.
