I have coded a very nice Game and Emulation Compatibility Database over at EmuFanatics. I just put it online two days ago so it is still missing a lot of games for the all the systems.
Currently I have 196 Dreamcast games up and ready for compatibility reports (# - S). I still need to finish adding the rest of the "s" games and "t-z" which I will do when I get up tomorrow.
So if you guys are interested in helping us build up our content then head on over to EF and register so you can start submitting compatibility reports.
Some Information and Features to get you started.
- Registration - If you want to submit games and compatibility reports you must be a registered user of EmuFanatics. Each user gets their own page that shows their system specs and what reports they have submitted. I plan on adding more to these once it gets going. Such as favorite games and other stuff. Currently you can add your system specs to the database and they will be automaticly inserted into a form when doing a report.

- Approval Required - All games and reports that are submitted go to a holding area where we view them before approving them for the public. So if it doesn't show up right away that is the reason.
- Search Engine - I have coded a nice search engine where you can search different areas of the database such as games, users, reports, emulators or just search it all at once. If you receive results and click the link it will highlight the words you were looking for in red.
- Clean and Easy to Use Design - I have created a very nice clean and easy to use design for the database as well as the submission interfaces.
- Detailed Reporting - You have the option of adding many details to your reports and various ratings. I like to have more information rather then some compatibility list where it is just playable or not playable.
- Many Sorting Options - You can sort by genre or by titles using the first letter of the title. On the left side menu of the site is another a - z list that will show all titles for all systems depending on the letter you pick. You can also view genres this way as well.
Overall the system is pretty advanced but I have made it very easy for everyone to use. I have some more plans once the database gets some more activity.
Thanks to all those that want to help out.
