Title: New Here, Question about Label Variation Post by: wwwebb on March 07, 2013, 10:23:01 PM Hi all, I am new here, came here due to hearing the Collector Cast. Tonight, I started adding my 2600 carts through the collection tools.
When adding the Imagic game Trick Shot, there were two in the db, one with a "text" label, which mine has text. However, when looking at the picture, the one in the database has English text only, where mine has English and 4 other languages on the label. From hearing the Collector Cast, I had heard that some users like all of the various variations for labels, and such being in the database, but wasn't sure what to add or even how, partially because I don't know why this one is different. All I have is the loose cart, no box or other material. Thanks in advance for any help.

Since there don't seem to be other regional entries in the database, you should submit a game variation (see Submit tab at top).
