Rename Super CD-ROM to TurboGrafx CD and add it to Other Systems menu
Ever since the Turbografx-16 section was divided into HuCard and CD games, it has become a complete mess. Not only has the CD section been named Super CD-ROM, which is factually inaccurate as only certain TurboGrafx CD games were Super CDs, but because the section has never been added to the Other Systems menu, it has become difficult to find and add games from this system to collections. This has also led to CD games being added to the HuCard section which only increases the confusion.
I propose the following changes: First, rename the Super CD-ROM sections to TurboGrafx CD and JP PC Engine CD, as these are more general terms applicable to all games in their sections. Second, the TurboGrafx CD page must be added to the Other Systems menu, so that it has proper visibility to the general public Third, both the TurboGrafx-16 and TurboGrafx CD sections must be properly curated so that both libraries are properly sorted and labeled.
Answer
Thanks for this feedback. I can go through and do the backend changes for this in terms of console name and menu addition. Would you be willing to help curate? I don't really know much about TG16 or TGCD so I would not be the best to do that.
Please let me know.
I would be delighted! TurboGrafx is one of my favorite systems and I would be honored to have the opportunity to help with that section of the site.
I've change the name of both consoles in the database. I also added the Turbo CD to the 'other' dropdown menu. That will go live with the next server update.
You can start the curation portion of that work to clean-up that portion of the site. If you don't have contributor privileges yet let me know.
I do have contributor privileges, but I'm not quite sure how to do certain things. I seem unable to edit the names of games or to change what system they are for, which would be a big help in organizing the sections.
Unfortunately product names and moving to new consoles is only available to admin because that changes the url for the item. We want to make sure that isn't changed lightly.
Can you give me a list of the changes I should make and I'll make them instead? Sorry you couldn't do that directly.
Here's a list of issues from the TurboGrafx-16 section:
Atlantean - Homebrew title; change name to: Atlantean [Homebrew]

I see no issues in the TurboGrafx CD section right now. Let me know when the changes are made, and I will then take a look at the JP PC Engine sections.
There is still an entry for Gate of Thunder in TurboGrafx-16, other than that, everything looks good!
