Title: The Ultimate Famicom Software Guide
Post by: fcgamer on May 31, 2015, 10:48:13 am
On my blog I just released a new Famicom game / software guide.  This has been put together after a few months and many hours of work, research, and dedication.  I hope everyone enjoys version 1.0

Fantastic work! You even included some homebrew titles.

The link to your blog at the bottom seems to be broken however.

As you can see from the section on the education carts (where I basically had to add pictures so that people could see what was being talked about), it turned out rather poor / sloppy, since the word processor I am using is not as good as Word when it comes to adding pictures.

To be honest, I don't have all of the games in that catalog, but I have probably 80 or 85%, and I am sure that with everyone here on the forum, we probably as a collective whole have 98 or 99% of the items listed (excluding the crazy stuff like the Konami Q Adapter games, etc).  So if we all pitched in, I think it most certainly could become a reality of having pics and what not.

In reality, I would love to do something like this:

Make a catalog with info about every game, short description, and maybe a cart scan and some screenshots.  This would be a large undertaking and a big project, but I think the result would be amazing.

With that said though, I don't know anything at all about making a book template or something like that.  If someone knows more about something like that and wants to aid with the design aspect, I wouldn't mind making it a reality.
