I thought this would be a really cool feature on NintendoDB. On the game page have a feature where you can see the credits for that game.
For example:
Ice Climber Credits
Director: Kenji Miki
Music Composition: Akito Nakatsuka
Character Designer: Tadashi Sugiyama
Executive Producer Hiroshi Yamauchi
...and so on and so forth. What do you think, Fryguy?

The problem is, such data is quite hard to maintain, if you don't have the game.
For some games, it doesn't seem to be possible to find the credits.

I see...
That's ok. I know how hard it is to maintain a website. I'm building a Ice Climber fansite and one section is about Ice Climber for the Famicom Disk System. I'll tell you, finding screenshots for that game is a pain in a butt.

Isn't it the same as the NES version?

No it isn't... like Clu Clu Land and Wrecking Crew it was updated for the Disk System. Some new enemies, items, and mountains... a new title screen opening...
Anyone else think those spear-carrying bees look a lot like the ones in Super Mario Land?
I've seriously considered adding game credits where known, but they're one of those things that would require a hefty bulk of reader help. I've got a folder with some in, and whether I get around to adding them all depends on whether I ever get to a point where it seems like a good idea.

How about then only add the important ones, like the Producer, directer, and maybe not just for indivisual games but for several games made by these people.

Fryguy, I'll PT'd you with a list of NES games and their credits.

You might want to try again, because the private message you sent had nothing in it

Something similar to that hapend to me, exept it was the oposite way. By the way icemaster, what kind of credits are you sending to fry.

Just some NES credits.
Some are incomplete like Balloon Fight and Duck Hunt, however I do know who composed the music for both of them.

The music is made by most likely Koji Kondo.

Nope... Nintendo has a lot of in-house music composers, including Kazumi Totaka, Hirokazu "Hip" Tanaka, and more. Koji Kondo actually seems to do very few games.

Yeah! That's the funny thing. The most famous musician (Koji Kondo) is the lease productive!
On a off topic side note I had a piano recital today. No, I did not play any Nintendo music.
