FAQ Contributors - General

and by 'add it in anyways' I mean add a note about the email and that you can't confirm this.

oh, and I finally managed to get the topic starting this project up on my page. Check it out in the archive.

Just thought, who is going to post the next topic when this one reaches 500?

Whoever does post the next topic, remember to add selmiak's website on the first post.

Well, there's probably plenty of time yet but it makes sense to me the selmiak should do the next topic anyway.

imho TD should do it as the most active contributor to this project. I would gladly take the 3rd topic. Are we still gonna have 2 pages for the project with the 2nd topic?

It's pointless to have 2 sites for the same project.

Impossible is just a word people use to make themselves feel better when they quit

I'll probably remove mine once the new project starts.

It takes too long to update my site and anything decent can be ported to selmiak's site anyway. That has reminded me, I should add all the games that have only been covered for another system onto selmiak's site.

And instead of discussing who is going to open it, maybe just write an example first-post so it is just copy-pastying.

Bright idea. It doesn't really matter who opens the topic. What's important is the info in the first post.

I'm out of the draw for this, because I haven't even submitted a guide for the SMS.

But I agree with the example first post idea.

Hahaha!, Grease is the word! - Moe Szyslak(Drunk)

Just to update this board, I have just added every cross-linked game to selmiak's stie so you can file claims for those games through the "complete" section of his site. All the new games added today by me is listed as the first news article on the main page.

It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt - Mark Twain

TD, I contemplated whether or not to add that game from the list when I added the "Covered by Another System before the restart of this CP", deciding that it was better to include a full list encase someone decided to bring up some crap about the game not being included.

I can justify adding the game being added to the list easier than not adding it by the fact that it provides a full list of "Covered for Another System" games. Additionally, it is in a different section of the site to the Incomplete list and has been on a dedicated page on my site since the "Covered for Another System" games were separated from the rest of the game list.

Think that is it, unless someone can get Game Data from some Korean games not on this site (Dodgeball King, for example) or that version not being listed on this site (The Dinosaur Dooley, for example). Would be interesting to see how many games could not be covered after this site has a complete Korean game list.

Not sure if there is a Korean list anywhere, did find this though which has some useful info:

http://www.smspower.org/museum/lists/smsall.txt

There is a list for Japanese games linked in there too.

Guessing you might not know some of this info already. Only skimmed it myself.

I know I said I was going to remove my website once this topic finishes, but I am not going to do that now. I have just realised that I have that website linked in a sig on an important petition I am running and remember reading that referral links were against the TOU, so I don't want that topic closed based on me removing the site.

This should not affect the main topic when it gets recreated, as mention of my website should still be removed from the first post.

So I had a look at great ice hockey... and I can't steer the guys on ice. Anyone got an idea how to steer the players? Or is it because of kega?

You're not the only one who can't control the players in Great Ice Hockey. I remember TD mentioning another type of controller that a couple of games played on (think Galactic Protector or some game TD covered used the controller). Maybe this game also needs that controller to play it.

Finally my Submarine Attack guide got accepted! I basically had to revamp the whole guide, which took me a while. But I am glad that game is knocked out.

I will claim The Smurfs as my next project. This is probably the last SMS game that I own that doesn't have a FAQ, although I know I have Earthworm Jim somewhere. >_<

"Bob, wheres yo mind at?" - Mark Wilkins from Resident Evil Outbreak
Baltimore Orioles: 0-0 | Baltimore Ravens: 10-8

Think Earthworm Jim was a Brazillian or South African only game? Not 100% sure on that, would need to check. Maybe you live there anyway, I don't know. Think it was only really released on Mega Drive/Genesis for Sega in most countries.

The controller mentoned sort of works on Meka (another emulator) - think it is called a Sports Pad? Tried one soccer game with it and it is still very hard to control. Haven't tried the game mentioned, so can't confirm if this is the controller needed.

Hopefully able to get the guides I have done up this weekend. Sort of given up on images working properly in FAQ's (SB's response was the issue would be fixed "soon" on the feedback I sent). Images would help for the Chuck Rock one though (I don't describe the enemies very well - dunno how you can for some. If you've played it, you'd know what I mean.)

Yeah it's the Sports Pad and Meka is the way forward with that one. Congrats to Tutankoopa who's livened up a very quiet month too!

ED, you are right about Earthworm Jim for the SMS being from another country. When you mentioned that Earthworm Jim was also for the Genesis, I immediately look at my collection and found it. I don't know what I was thinking when I thought I had the SMS version. My mistake.

Take me off of Streets of Rage 2 . The GG version this game is exactly the same I can confirm. As far I can tell, the only difference is that the enemy names do not appear. Since there's a GG FAQ up, I sent in a problem report so this should be cross-linked on the next site update.

---

^ Done. Just waiting for the GG version to be cross-linked before adding that game as "Complete (for another system)"

I've just been too busy for this month myself and I have no plans for any SMS games for the rest of the year. Got too many other FAQS projects to get complete, some of which I doubt will ever be completed if I don't do it (unless the console becomes a CP, which I would doubt).

Hmm, never really formally claimed it back in early January like I thought I had, just siad I was considering it. You can put my name down for Game Box Serie Esportes Radicais.

Quick question about this game, as far as I can tell, it was only released in Brazil, however the site lists it as being released in South Africa. Think there are other games listed as South African which from memory other websites say were only released in Brazil also.

Think this is because the company which released this game, TecToy is based in South Africa.

Reason I am fairly sure this is Brazillian though is the cover shot and game name. Translating it from Portugese to English translates the name correctly (I assume) to Game Box Series Extreme Sports (Thanks Google) - the writing on the back cover seems to be Portugese also, haven't translated this yet to check.

Can anyone confirm where this game was released? The cover mentions SA on the back (guessing this is where the South Africa in the Game Data comes from), but also mentions Manaus - a city in Brazil.

The game is easily playable with no knowledge of Portugese - it is just two events from Califonia Games anyway, and the menus are in English.

For those interested in checking (especially if you can read Portugese) link to the box:

Game Data:

http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/sms/data/960944.html

Thanks!

Anyone figured out who is creating Topic 2 BTW? We'll need it in a few posts time. Doesn't really matter who does I guess.

I know this has been going slowly lately, but I'll try to make sure this project doesn't die completely again, even if I have to cover every game myself! As long as somebody keeps a website going and is willing to update it (something I don't know how to do), this will keep going.

~ Ringworm ~

Ringworm, I have not seen this site have a dedicated "Brazil" indication like they have with Australia, Japan and Korea.

TD was going to make the second topic, replacing my site on the first post with selmiak's [ http://selmiak.bplaced.net/sms/ ]. This site will allow anyone to claim a game if you register without needing to ask someone here to update the site.

Right then, I will re-claim James Pond 2 since I already have an incomplete FAQ for that. Hopefully I can knock this out in a week or so. That way at least it won't have been a completely barren month. I will stop short of claiming Ayrton Senna's Super Monaco GP II although probably I will write for that at some point. Anyone who is looking at BMX Trial: Alex Kidd should know that this game is playable in Meka. It is really blocky and imprecise, but you could definitely get enough out of the game to write a guide.

So, when will the new topic be created?

Just played a few games, but I have not found anything to write for yet. Finding out how many levels Shooting Gallery and Rescue Mission may tempt me into writing for one of those games.
