I can't help it, making content for obscure systems is so satisfying!

I know the feeling, at least part of it. Keep going, it's always interesting to see the unknown.
Do you know anything about the FM Towns Marty? That console looks great, I know it's compatible with the FM Towns (computer) games, but I never tried it and I'm not sure if the computer games work in it, it's probably a consolized thing like the Amiga CD-32 right?

You're becoming the new king of the obscure systems, my friend.

I havent done logos as they arent used in my setup, I have done a small number of placeholder videos which are on Emumovies however I wont bother doing Switch official recordings until Emulation is a bit more mature. 

It's all good, I worked on adding a few dozen games some time ago and managed to grab all videos needed to fill in the blanks, it's around 80~ titles, my issue here is that there isn't an "official" 3D box pack yet, so if you check the video below, their angles/sizes differ, some are quite convincing while others are plain placeholders, but since all my other systems are using this layout, I went with those for now. Though, I really dig a more plain and cleaner approach like yours. Let me know if you'd like the videos or even logos from my setup.
This system already has tons and tons of titles like the Wii and I end up selecting no more than 200 (which is already an insane amount), but I asked because I could have missed some official media pack.

Thanks for the link!

It covers all Physical games released up to 29/1/22, I will update it again in July, if you find any games missing from before January 2022 then let me know and I will make a note to add them in July.

Is there media for this database, like boxes, logos and videos somewhere?

You should also check the logos from mccorkled here:

@floatingyeti I remember you when I just registered back in 2015 or so, glad to see you back, thanks!

@Aorin nope. even with the smaller file sizes still getting error 200. tried several times & on a few different browsers as well. what a pain.

I believe @thatman84 or @Circo could tell us what is happening there?

@Dubbloseven, thanks for trying and I regret for the inconvenience of such problem.
I started uploading my latest works on Emumovies, I believe Hyperspin could use the same upgrades those servers have, they accept much larger files.

Sorry for the delay uploading the PC Jewel Cases. I'm Getting Upload Error 200 every time I try. 

I think this happens because of the 100MB per file limit, you'd need to split the file into pieces of 95~MB each in Winrar, 7z, etc.

I'll take a look into adding more PC games soon, specially the classics, so thanks for both uploads. You mention jewel cases, are they available somewhere?

Does this system have a database and artwork, 3D box, logos, carts?

Amazing work, looking forward to integrating this with my mega drive theme! Always wanted to work on this but didn't find the time, great job!

The same will happen to the Genesis soon, a clean database like the Japanese and European versions, there are some games never released physically in the US like Alien Soldier and Mega Man: Willy Wars, they were released via the Sega Channel service, a few compilations, etc.

It does seem plausible that they just messed up the English at some point. I have seen it before. I wouldn't trust dot or no dot too much though, as in practice transliterating English words seems to turn out in different ways.

Yet, here we have a game that has the same name (except for the "The" then) in English on both the English and Japanese game art. So, what should we go with? Well, it's always a judgment call of course. But to me, cover name is quite convincing. Even if it was a possible mistake. 

If there's one thing (or three things) that messes this all up, are the spine, cart and manual English writings, if none of these were there, I'd still be on the Hardcore side, and since it's known as Hard Corps elsewhere, I believe it would be basically the user choice in the end, let's say both names are right. Also there are other titles like Castle of Illusion that in Japan can be called in both ways, that's Japan for you:

Well, no choice would be wrong here either, while this is a different case than the Contra above, :>[

Anyway, please let me know if you find other inconsistencies, and I just remembered I haven't messed with the CERO ratings in this database.

Sorry, but the naming of "Contra The Hard Corps" as something else doesn't seem right, as it has just that in English both on the spine and on top of the cart.

Actually, it's a word that would be translated with the same phonetic in Katakana and that is why it was localized as Hardcorps instead, try to differentiate both words "Harcore" and "Hard Corps" in Katakana, the only difference would be a space or a dot between ハード (Hard) and コア (Core), If you try that, you'll see the localization was misinterpreted, it should be localized as Hardcore.

The box art is clearly written Hardcore without the dot or something in between that could make it a separate word for "Corps", instead they have a point which separates the ザ (The) from the Hardcore word "ハードコア".

Beyond that, you may have heard a spin off called Hardcorps: Uprising, which is basically a Contra/Probotector for X360 and PS3, some Japanese speaking sites refer to this game like this:

ハードコープス doesn't seem right but it's probably a way to say this game isn't related to the Mega Drive game.

Anyway I have an open mind and I'm willing to update/fix the database any time, if you find any information that this entry in particular was meant to be named like it was overseas, let me know and any other entry needing fix, just tell me, thanks again!

Edit: I often check Romhacking.net and people tend to fix numerous mistranslated games since the NES era, incorrect character names, locations, semantics, etc., it's really common.

I'd say the spine English name was written by Japanese, I'm still considering what SegaRetro states and the lack of a space in the Katakana Hardcore writing.

And, since they have Hard Corps in the cart, manual etc., I'd say there's no right or wrong, that kind of confusion is common, just edit it to Hard Corps and it's all good.

nice work

thanks a lot for these great artworks

Thanks, expect an European set soon.

Hey @Wally Wonka, can you post the xml you attached in the description? Attachments are broken. Thanks!

join us! The nes theme project is 89% completed. Only 200 some remain! https://www.facebook.com/groups/1261543240673631/

Only 200 left? Don't forget Famicom is NES too, they're not different systems, like Master System and Mark III :>]

Great theme mate, simple, like the system that holds the game, beautiful work. Don't forget widescreen users, they'll want that in case you didn't create one already.

Great upload thankyou, do you please have the wheels set to go with these and your other sets. Thankyou

Satellaview games were basically downloaded games which weren't released physically, I made a pack of logos I extracted from the games themselves some years ago, that's probably what was used for the cart logos as well.

Thanks for contributing, great work.

Have anyone figured an easy way and a good Android emulator to play on Windows?

Update your Winrar program, older versions will say the files are corrupt, or something.

I have a custom NES/Famicom/Disk System setup, which has around 200 titles, I updated all artwork with your new media and it's looking great, thanks amigo.

You're always giving trouble, now we're forced to update our media again. 

There's that palpable feeling, great as always.

@Kondorito, I had no idea this project finished already. Congratulations to you and all guys that helped along the way, I know it wasn't easy at all.
