good evening all together,

i have a suggestion for a new feature. i saw it at advanscene.com and thought it could be useful. but i don't know if you already discussed about this and made a decision. if so, delete this thread.

when you view a db-entry there should be a region-dupe field with links to the same game but from other regions. the times where the companies gave their games a unique name for each region are over and there are plenty of sites with these kind of information like wikipedia, but it would be cool to see how the game was/is called in russia or japan for example. it could also be helpful for creating merge-dats in 30 years when redump gets (almost) full sets for the consoles.

i don't know if this feature would screw up the whole cms and is hard to realize. i want to hear your thoughts.

thanks for reading. sorry for this shit-english. i hope you could understand a bit.

nice thread and good thoughts. tossEAC's idea is great and sounds utopic, but this is the key.
jamjam suggestion is also good, it would be so awesome if someone could find out the algorithm for random padding.

i just doubt that both things are possible. i like this discussion. maybe someone has an even better suggestion. let's see.

in my opinion it's better to skip those data. who knows if they're useless because of copy protection?
