Videos of Releases and other ideas
I think a very cool feature for CSDb would be to allow maintainers to add links to YouTube videos created of the release in action. Not everyone has the requisite hardware to run all the releases, and for some getting VICE set up correctly to replicate the intended effect of the release can be a challenge. Being able to link to videos on YouTube would be super awesome when you are just casually browsing the repository of releases.
I think another cool feature for releases would be an NTSC/PAL flag. This would be a searchable field so that you can easily weed out unwanted results from searches. |

I didn't know about this API. This has potential to allow a CSDb client for the 64. How cool would it be to search for a release from the 64, and then download it directly to the machine? |

Posting videos will make people less interested in emulators and the real deal, and most of the watchers will not download the production, and it will not be spread, thus die. Forever. :P |

I was thinking....
Maybe it´s a good idea to incorporate an emulator in the CSDb website? That way, people can check Pearls for Pigs ***ONLINE*** or play Last Ninja 2 ***ONLINE***!!!!
Now how cool would that be? ;-)
Whilst your at it, maybe incorporate Timanthes aswell!! And Photoshop...
No no, don´t thank me for my creative thinking: just remember to credit me for the idea!!! xD |

@Sounx: I've done it a while ago http://play.blog2t.net/flash-as3-c64-intro-previewer
It was for intros c64, you just need a bookmarklet (check the bottom of the post)
Unfortunately the current state of Flash emulator is very basic, far from VICE.

I don't buy these "we are not gonna implement a good feature because we think it is harmful to our community" talks anymore but since I don't care about videos and I am not the one who is gonna spend the time and implement those features, I will STFU. ;) |

People can add YouTube links already. If there's no other webpage URL for the release, then that's useful additional info. Of course it shouldn't be mandatory.
But personally I would like to see some more enhancements to the BBCode parser, to allow some of the modern fancy tags such as [youtube], [flash], etc. Then people could embed a video in a comment. |

Most releases end up on Pouet as well these days. And it akes a few seconds to search for productions on YouTube. You must be terribly busy. |

It is so 2000 in here and we are proud of it!
Ps. And do not forget it is about preserving stuff.
Ps2. Yes, you can make a demo about it.
