Uh-oh.. Fry's gonna have to make a run for his money...
Ugh, I'm so sick of them deleting content for the West. I know this isn't the case, but I just wanna blurt this out: Nintendo is really prejudiced for Japanese. It's sad how many times they just screw the English speaking countries out of content, even when it's something as simple as another game mode or a few pieces of music. Arrgh... I wanted to play Tetra's Trackers, damnit!

I guess they sort of stole the Chronicle thing out of my head, though theirs looks a little less thorough.

Well, I list them by day where they're known. You'd have thought the US would have some kind of idea of when they released their own games

(Gamer Advisory Panel. They used to send me free stuff, but now they don't ) and as a member, I'm able to see the release date and information of every game that has appeared on a Sony console. Unfortuneatly, they list it by month and year. Not day. I guess that's just how America is.

See the Checker thing: You unlock something by swimming over a distance? Does that mean you can swim in the game? I recall once BooDestroyer told me that he saw briefly in a vid that characters actually swim in the Mario Sunshine stage. Guess he was right. I'm-a gonna have to do some work to keep NinDB a worthwhile website to visit Any ideas how I can beat Super Smash Bros. Brawl?! Being more accurate than the game, I'd say. You know how terrible the Nintendo of America people are when it comes to history keeping, as seen in Game & Watch Gallery 4.

You have more than just a name and a date. It has cameos, screenshots, easter eggs, hyperlinks connecting game with game, etc., and it's objective. They're not comparable... I'm not sure why even Fry is thinking it's going to lose value. Also, NinDB has this message board and Brawl doesn't.

I was under the impression that the Chronicles wouldn't just be a list of names and dates, but might actually have some extra info.
At the top it says "As of December 2007". Do you think the list might update over time? Perhaps we'll be seeing more stickers added via wifi!

here's another question: is there not going to be a section for the Metal Gear and Sonic info? I only see Nintendo consoles there!

Ahem...
Metal Gear & Sonic != Nintendo
Basically Metal Gear & Sonic aren't listed because, while Nintendo doesn't mind mentioning dead systems like the MSX or Sega Genesis, they kinda have a bit of a problem mentioning the PlayStation and Xbox lines.

I know that, but the Chronicle is supposed to fill in as you collect stickers and trophies and whatnot, and we know there are collectibles in the game related to those series. it would seem oddly incomplete if there wasn't some place to collect that info.
