They took those off months and months ago... If you still want the lists the closest thing is likely the Digital Press Guide Advance, which contains the systems the were formally available as PDFs.

They've been converted to database form for our online visitors. The PDF's have been mega-updated and have become the Advance Guide.

Here's the link to the database:

i really dont like that database....all i ever really want is an easy to print out complete game list for a certain system....and that database, while good for other things, is NOT good for that...thats why i liked the pdf...please take my criticisim purely in the constructive form...

...Luckily that's why Digital Press released the Advance Guide. All the PDF stuff in one place, the guide really kicks ass I picked it up at the CGE, I've been paging through it all night. :D

Actually I know the secret way to access them ;D. Heh, not like it matters, I'd rather get a dp advance guide, which I'm sure is much more up to date. In fact, I think I shall right now.

Sombody in the rarity list forum on this site sent me a zip file with all the pdfs that they had on here, this was like 2 months ago after they already got rid of them. Ask there. I dont have them anymore though.

Oh you did ask there... lol, who moved it here? I asked there.

I remember noticing a few months back i couldn't find the PDF snes list and thinking it was down for some reason? So there all gone dooooooh!!

I have never bought a DP guide, so i take it the Advanced guide will have all the latest console games lists, ie, GC, Ps2, xbox etc..

I hope this isn't a super secret or anything. If it is, feel free to toss me into a pit of feral retarded yetti's but the lists are still there http://www.digitpress.com/lists.htm Just not linked to.

I saved them all before they went offline, but I had forgot to save that nifty graph, so I stumbled on it by accident, when I tried my direct link one last time.

Oh, and I can't wait for my advance guide to come...it will be like xmas :D

There's none of the current systems included - it would make no sense anyway since they would be instantly out of date, and rarity/pricing would be impossible.
However, it does include just about everything else from 16-bit upwards: Have a look! (http://www.digitpress.com/dpg_plug_advance.htm)

I guess so, but, it would be better than starting at the end (of a consoles life) and working back.. alot of little tit-bits and info get missed out when your back tracking instead of going with it, as and when titles are released! ;) The same for console packages, and special limited edition items.

I.e (Snes) Illusion of Gaia (Limited stock, you could get it packaged with a Gaia T-shirt on pre order i think.) Also one of the Snes spiderman games came in a special box set with pins and a comic. these are just examples of things that collectors past and present, i'm sure would love to know. And even better collect. ;)

The same with GC harvest Moon, you got the little cow with the game, if it was pre-ordered. (I'm in the UK so i might be alittle off on the pre-order stuff :roll: )

I own both books but I hate writinging in them. I usually print off the system list and mark it up from there.

Guess I'll hafta buy a 2nd copy of the books ;)
