4 years ago Of 1707 "Official Topics" in the Mega Drive/Genesis forum, only 449 of them are actually for Mega Drive/Genesis games. Mega Drive/Genesis, SNES, NES, GB/GBC/GBA, and PC Engine are the only consoles that proper forum topics can be created in. The rest are created in the Mega Drive/Genesis forum by default. This is extremely messy 😩 I've already made a list of all topics in the Mega Drive/Genesis forum which need to be moved (posted on Discord).
An update to issue #8 - Since there are entries for all of these consoles, it would make sense for them to have their own forums so future topics can be created in the right place:
- 32X
- 3DO
- Apple II
- Arcade
- Atari 2600
- Atari 5200
- Atari 7800
- Atari Jaguar
- Atari Lynx
- Cassette Vision
- ColecoVision
- Commodore 64
- DOS (not yet supported, but a topic exists)
- Events
- Game Gear
- Hubs
- Intellivision
- Master System
- Neo Geo Pocket
- Nintendo 64
- Nintendo DS
- Oric
- PC-8000/8800
- PC-98
- PC-FX
- PlayStation
- PlayStation Portable
- Pokemon Mini
- Saturn
- Sega CD
- SG-1000
- Super Cassette Vision
- Vectrex
- Virtual Boy
- WonderSwan
I guess ideally, every console ID should have a forum attached to it so it's not something that needs to be repeatedly addressed. This was likely put on hold for issue #146. But at the rate topics are made, especially considering all the newly supported consoles, this is something that will just keep getting worse.
For admin to have the ability to move a forum topic from one folder to another.
