Japanese titles appear after American titles in parenthesis.  Dates are
dates of release in U.S.  If a title is currently available in Japan
the date is prefixed with a (*).  Japanese games with no planned U.S.
release are marked (jap).  Games marked (*jap) aren't available anywhere.

Reviews are also available for over 70 games (via FTP as above), in ftp
use the command 'GET filename.REVIEW' for a review.  Write reviews!!!

A '+' in column one indicates an entry updated since the last posting.
Codes after megabits include ss6 (Super Scope 6), m (mouse), fx (FX chip),
2p (two player), 2ps (two player simultaneous).  One player games
with battery backup (like RPGs) have codes 2g (2 saved games) etc...

You can get the latest info on a game's release date by calling
Nintendo at 1-800-255-3700

I welcome corrections, suggestions and comments.  If you send corrections
please include only the lines you modify (this makes my life much easier).
