WCP2004/Toy Wars
Why did you remove world championship pool and Toy Wars from the Gamecube list? Even if the pages aren't made they should be listed. Zephyrsurfer (talk) 01:46, 2 December 2014 (CET)

Toy Wars was the only homebrew game on the list and its article/listing was basically an advertisement with no content, and Kolano and I couldn't find proof that World Championship Pool 2004 was ever ported to GC, all but one of our sources of info on it listed it as cancelled. If you can find a copy of WCP2004 for GC I'll gladly rewrite the page myself, but Toy Wars I don't think should be listed again, since if we listed every homebrew game ever made we'd be doing a ton of extra work for no real benefit. - Xerxes (talk) 02:07, 2 December 2014 (CET)
 * Can't find the game. Fair enough :) Zephyrsurfer (talk) 00:32, 4 December 2014 (CET)

Biohazard Zero Trial Edition
I don't know if you know this already, but there are some copies of the game Biohazard Zero - Trial Edition on ebay if you do a search like these links:

You may know by now, but just in case you don't. Also I have a link to the image if you are interested if you can't afford it. --Yugix (talk) 23:53, 8 December 2014 (CET)

This is very interesting, thanks for showing me this. Demo discs just in general are hard to find or even confirm were made, so it's cool this one in particular can actually be found out there. I don't know about the legality of filesharing preview/demo disc images, on the one hand you could think of it as still containing copyrighted work because they're part of a fully featured game (just not the whole thing), but on the other hand they were never sold commercially, so I think it makes up a gray area. I know there's people out there that make Nintendo World Championships reproduction carts and they don't get into legal trouble, so maybe it's fine but I'm just not sure. But yeah, I can't afford to buy the game right now (my setup is pretty ghetto) so if it's legally alright you can shoot me the image somewhere and I'll do testing for it but otherwise I don't want to start condoning piracy on the wiki. - Xerxes (talk) 04:56, 10 December 2014 (CET)

Yeah, that is why I didn't link to it directly, since it very likely might go goes against the rules of the wiki which is why I only offered links to buy instead directly. It's only a demo, but you know how things are legally with this type of thing which is why I can't directly link to it here.--Yugix (talk) 06:39, 10 December 2014 (CET)

You could always test it yourself if you have a copy at your disposal. It's not like I own the page or anything, it just seemed like nobody else was going to bother finding these games since there were listings with 0 stars on there for forever. But if you wanted to do it that'd be fine too, the game just needs a compatibility rating. - Xerxes (talk) 04:09, 13 December 2014 (CET)

I know I could. Maybe one day once I get around to playing RE Zero but not right now. --Yugix (talk) 06:40, 14 December 2014 (CET)
