Hello! I'm new to this forum and i love bootleg video games (of course) and so, I would like to help out with whatever I can that is missing on the bootleg games wiki. If there are any missing games that need to have pages made or anything like that, I'm willing to help

Firstly, welcome to the forum.

I suppose if you own any pirates yourself or want to go in-depth into any obscure ones not covered on the Wiki, then you can write up articles on them.

welcome! good to have you on board

as far as missing games go, here's a list of every nonexistent page linked from somewhere on the wiki, which should give you some idea. You could also check out the game lists on developer & publisher pages and see if any are either red linked or non-linked.

edit: and yes of course, as Cheetahmen said if you personally own any we haven't covered and you want to add them, that'd be great.

What about roms? I have roms of some games that aren't covered.

Yeah absolutely - most of our articles are based on roms, I'm not saying you need to own the original to write about a game. we'd only have, like, ten pages if that were the case.

Haha ok

Glad to help!

That reminds me, I need to write an article about The General's Son (Famicom version) at some point.

I would also like to contribute but have never used wiki/wikia before. I also would like to add photos.

Are game hacks like Super Bros 8, Super Mario World 9, Darkwing Duck 2, Chip & Dale 3, etc... going to receive individual pages? how about Shenzhen Nanjing Titles? Whirlwind Manu ports of FDS titles to cart (or at least a single page covering these releases)?? I think that they all should, It would be awesome if the bootleg games wiki was incredibly in depth with every aspect of bootleg/pirate gaming.

Yeah, hacks and Nanjing stuff are fair game for articles as far as I'm concerned, as long as someone has something to write about them.

FDS ports probably should go into a single page though, there isn't much you can say about any individual port (except maybe all the variations of Super Mario Bros. 2)
