I bought a Dreamcast months ago and downloaded almost every NTSC/PAL game.
To make it easier to pick a game from my collection I made a catalog with some info, boxart and 2 screens for each game printed the whole thing to put it in a ring binder.
I already posted this on a site where I also downloaded the DC games (guess I can't name it here ::)) and downloaded already over 200 times :)
After some long and boring work it's finally done! A Dreamcast offline game catalog to print out.
I made this so I could easily choose a game I want to play or burn from my game collection.
It contains 36 pages, 8 games per page and 285 games in total.
I think almost all USA games are included, as many PAL only games as I could find and a few Japanese only games (Ikaruga, King of Fighters, etc.)
Please note that not all info might be correct or is just missing. It was a hell of a job to find all the correct info for some games. Most of it comes from vgrebirth.org but not all info was there. Most of the screenshots come from gamekult.com and many different sites.
There is a small box left of the game names that could be used to make a cross with a pen or pencil if you have the game or write NB or SB (No Boot/Self Boot), whatever you like. I couldn't include this info since it's sometimes different for some releases.
If anyone wants to improve this work with more games, info, descriptions or anything else, please be my guest and be sure to share it!
The torrent contains a PDF (16MB) for easy printing and an MS Word file (35MB) for editing.
The front box covers are almost all high resolution so the files turned out a bit big.
Here's a preview page.

I guess there are also enough DC fans here so maybe someone else here would also have a use for it too :)

That's pretty cool. There's no title on "Jimmy White's 2" whatever that is...
What list did you base this on? I noticed Ikaruga which is not a US game.
-
Ah! you're right, gotta fix that :-\
At first I had the list from all the games I had, then checked on vgrebirth for games I was missing. I added some Japanese games like shooters and fighters since you don't need to know any Japanese for it.
Didn't really want to make USA only list or something... just a list of games that I can play.

Oooh, looks nice. I love doing that sort of thing for my collection. Haven't gone with graphics yet, but that's due to a lack of time. I do have comprehensive lists, at least in regards to my collection. That's about the only reason I took the free Excel class that they were offering through work. :laugh2:

That's pretty slick. Makes me want to go back and update my Access database to have graphics for each game. Stuff like this is a really good way to keep track of a game collection. :cheers:

That's a damn cool idea, and very nicely executed.
I downloaded it, thanks a lot.
