Sega Genesis box arts #6

Open sergiobenrocha2 opened 8 years ago

sergiobenrocha2 commented 8 years ago

thegamesdb has some wrong box arts in its set. Here what I found, in the case we move to 512:

Basically all the Europe & Japan files mirror the USA files.

It seems thegamesdb uses "custom/fan art/mockup" covers for some games, like this: http://thegamesdb.net/banners/boxart/original/front/2611-1.jpg

This game released only on Japan as far as I know.

The Cover Project has more accurate covers for each region (but some covers seems to be more 'flat', probably filters used?). Moby Games has some too.

Yeah we definitely need to check for accuracy manually, I think a lot of these existing databases that have scrapable covers just pick whatever boxart they can find, whether or not it is real or not.

Put together libretro-thumbnails-check to help with checking. Still could use some tweaks, but the result is pretty neat: Sega - Mega Drive - Genesis.txt

The world be changin'. What do we do with the boxarts for digital games?

I'm assuming all this versions were emulated on GameGube.

./Lunch Time (USA) (GameCube)
./Pokemon Party Mini - Baseline Judge (Europe) (GameCube)
./Pokemon Party Mini - Baseline Judge (Japan) (GameCube)
./Pokemon Party Mini - Baseline Judge (USA) (GameCube)
./Pokemon Party Mini - Chansey's Dribble (Europe) (GameCube)
./Pokemon Party Mini - Pikachu's Rocket Start (Europe) (GameCube)
./Pokemon Party Mini - Ricochet Dribble (Japan) (GameCube)
./Pokemon Party Mini - Ricochet Dribble (USA) (GameCube)
./Pokemon Party Mini - Rocket Start (USA) (GameCube)
./Pokemon Party Mini - Slowking's Judge (Europe) (GameCube)
./Pokemon Pinball Mini (USA) (GameCube Preview)
./Pokemon Puzzle Collection (France) (GameCube Preview)
./Pokemon Puzzle Collection (Germany) (GameCube Preview)
./Pokemon Puzzle Collection (Japan) (GameCube)
./Pokemon Puzzle Collection (USA) (GameCube Preview)
./Snorlax's Lunch Time (Europe) (GameCube)
./Snorlax's Lunch Time (Japan) (GameCube)

Should I remove those and keep the boxarts for official versions only?

./Pichu Bros. Mini (Japan)
./Pichu Bros. Mini - Hoppip's Jump Match (Japan) (Preview)
./Pichu Bros. Mini - Netsukikyuu (Japan) (Preview)
./Pichu Bros. Mini - Skateboard (Japan) (Preview)
./Pokemon Anime Card Daisakusen (Japan)
./Pokemon Party Mini (Europe)
./Pokemon Party Mini (Japan)
./Pokemon Party Mini (USA)
./Pokemon Pinball Mini (Japan)
./Pokemon Pinball Mini (Japan) (Preview)
./Pokemon Pinball Mini (USA, Europe)
./Pokemon Puzzle Collection (France)
./Pokemon Puzzle Collection (Germany)
./Pokemon Puzzle Collection (Japan)
./Pokemon Puzzle Collection (USA, Europe)
./Pokemon Puzzle Collection Vol. 2 (Japan)
./Pokemon Race Mini (Japan)
./Pokemon Race Mini (Japan) (Preview)
./Pokemon Shock Tetris (Japan)
./Pokemon Sodateyasan Mini (Japan)
./Pokemon Tetris (Europe) (En,Ja,Fr)
./Pokemon Zany Cards (France)
./Pokemon Zany Cards (Germany)
./Pokemon Zany Cards (USA, Europe)
./Togepi no Daibouken (Japan)
./Togepi no Daibouken (Japan) (Preview)
./[BIOS] Nintendo Pokemon Mini (World)

I don't like it at all. I would rather keep them all. ;__;

This is another case. What's the 'box' used in the virtual console?

lasers commented 7 years ago

The 'box' used in virtual console looks like this, I guess. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbA3Uqo--PM

@RobLoach there are some false positive there, titles with &

Are there any way to it show 'orphans' png ? Sometimes no-intro change the name in a way you think it's missing art (mainly Japanese titles).

RobLoach commented 7 years ago

Fixed. Running another update now.

Like PNGs that don't match a database entry? That's a good idea. Made an issue for it.

There are some false positive there, what dat are you using? From libretro-database or these dats in this repo? Btw, why do we still have them? They are all out of date

markwkidd commented 7 years ago

@sergiobenrocha2 the MegaDrive/Genesis 'orphans' list got an update 4 days ago. Is it working as expected now? https://github.com/RobLoach/libretro-thumbnails-check/blob/master/out/Sega%20-%20Mega%20Drive%20-%20Genesis%20Orphans.txt

RobLoach commented 7 years ago

It's possible that the [ and ] brackets are messing up the check.

RobLoach commented 7 years ago

The [ issue is fixed.
