"(which would put Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story before Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time, and both would be listed before Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga)"

I have my collection alphabetically, but then when it comes to instances like this, I just put them in their proper order. I don't find it off-putting having Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time before Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, or UEFA Euro 2008 inbetween FIFA 08 and FIFA 09, or 2010 FIFA World Cup between FIFA 10 and FIFA 11.

As most people do, and I don't fault them for it or anything, I simply prefer my method. Actually, alphabetical order is what I use for my movies, since again, the UPCs are everywhere and don't seem to organize anything in any order. And with sequels, I put them in proper order, one right next to the other. I have Dark Knight right after Batman Begins and Batman: Gotham Knight, instead of separated by all the "C"s.

that's really cool and interesting actually.

Didn't realize there was such a pattern in the UPCs. I always thought it was random. So do you not worry about separating based on console? Like you'll have dreamcast games stuck between ps2 games and whatnot?

Well, my Gamecube games are intermixed with my Wii games, and my GB, GBC, GBA, and DS games are intermixed, but they're separate from each other. When I buy the UGC, my cartridges will be separate from the disk based and the portable games. I haven't yet decided if I should intermix my Xbox 360 games and my PC games with my GCN and Wii games, but since I only have a couple of games for either (I'm fairly new to the world of Microsoft consoles, and most of my games for both Xbox 360 and PC are from the XBLA and Steam respectively), I'm not rushing to make that decision. I may, at a later date, decide to separate every game first by console, then UPC number, but for now I'm happy with how it's set up.

I'd add a picture to show you, but I don't have a working camera and I don't want to drive this thread anymore off topic.

Unless there's something I'm missing, I'm pretty sure that all of these covers:

http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=833
http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=834
http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=835
http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=858

should be marked as "Custom" and not "Retail".

No actually they are retail covers.
First is the official Swedish cover, second one is Official Lemi version, third Pangaian and last Ă…landian.  ;D

No . . .  you're right

Noticed Probotector for the Gameboy is filed under a US cover. This should be PAL right?

Noticed we have a "Spawn" and "Todd McFarlane's Spawn" folder in the SNES section. Maybe we can merge the two and just call it "Spawn: The Video Game"?

Misspellings on the back cover for Ektophase's Guardian Heroes custom cover:
http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=11605

The errors are as follows:
"van" instead of "can"
"opponent's" instead of "opponents" (unless it is specifically talking about a singular opponent).
"6Player" instead of "6 Player"

Also, for Ektophase's Shining Force III custom cover:
http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=11606

"controlable" instead of controllable

On Prince of Persia for Sega CD
http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=7015
http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=9960

The third point in the text on the back cover is incorrect:
'...they must be soon to be believed.'

The retail cover has it proper where is says '...they must be seen to be believed.'
