Review & corrections

This page lists every report that was investigated, whether or not it led to a change.

Comment threads keep nothing: each report is collected, archived, then erased from the page. Without this log, someone taking the time to report an error would get no feedback at all. It is updated on every review pass.

Why rejected reports appear here too

A report contradicted by the source, or unverifiable, is listed just like an accepted correction. A wrong value — a clock, a DIP setting, a capacitor — can destroy a board: nothing is published on the strength of a report alone, and that verification work should be visible.

✅ Cross-checked — NES / Famicom

Reported by eldavid8885 · NES / Famicom

Report. Typo in the "Expansion audio (Famicom)" section: the title rendered as "Castle- vania III JP" instead of "Castlevania III JP"

Source. La page elle-meme, qui ecrit le titre correctement a deux autres endroits (tableau des mappers), et la page EN qui n'avait pas le defaut. Coquille verifiee sur le site publie avant correction

Outcome. Fixed (FR; the EN page was already correct). Cause: a line break in the source file split the word into "Castle-" / "vania III JP", which Markdown rendered with the hyphen and a space. The line break was moved. No technical value involved; the VRC6 mapper is unchanged (161436d)

✅ Cross-checked — Master System

Reported by eldavid8885 · Master System

Report. The Handle Controller (steering wheel) was missing from the "Peripherals & built-in game" section

Source. Wikipedia — Master System, articles EN et FR, deja cites en source par les pages concernees. EN : « A combination steering wheel and flight stick, the Handle Controller, was released in 1989. » FR : « Le Handle Controller est un volant concu pour les jeux video de course tels que Super Monaco GP ou des jeux mettant en scene des avions de chasse comme Ace of Aces ou After Burner. »

Outcome. Added to both pages. The report said "steering wheel"; the sources say it also doubles as a flight stick, which the page now reflects, along with the 1989 date and the titles cited. Neither the release region nor the full list of compatible games is documented by these sources, so nothing is claimed about them (ca495d3)

✅ Cross-checked — Sega New Versus City

Reported by bakaskal · Sega New Versus City

Report. The New Versus City was listed under "Other candy cabs" but had no page of its own, unlike Sega's other cabinets

Source. Arcade Otaku Wiki — Sega New Versus City

Outcome. Page created (FR + EN), added to the nav and linked from "Other candy cabs". A weight discrepancy between sources is flagged in a callout: 224 kg against the ~210 kg quoted on the Versus City page

💬 No fix needed — NES / Famicom

Reported by digitallumberjack · NES / Famicom

Report. Test comment, no technical claim

Outcome. No change

✅ Cross-checked — Super Nintendo / Super Famicom

Reported by eldavid8885 · Super Nintendo / Super Famicom

Report. The regional lock on the controller port of European SNES consoles was missing: the "Region & lockout" section only covered the CIC, the cartridge shape and 50/60 Hz

Source. ConsoleMods — SNES:Making_Controller_Board_Region-Free et SNES:Region_Information (CC-BY-SA) ; recoupe par GameSX/NFG — controls:snes_con_region_fix

Outcome. The "Region & lockout" section was rewritten around four distinct locks (cartridge shape, F411/F413 CIC, 50/60 Hz, controller port) and a controller-port region-free procedure was added (FR + EN). Mechanism retained: four ESD diodes on the data latch/clock lines (pins 2 and 3) of early PAL consoles, compensated by pull-ups found only in PAL controllers. Stated limit: not applicable to PAL 1CHIP consoles. The controller-side alternative ("only-P" resistors) is mentioned but flagged as not corroborated, since locating the points relies on photos not reproduced here

✅ Cross-checked — Commodore 64

Reported by gtranche · Commodore 64

Report. The iFixit disassembly procedures were left untranslated: the French page showed the English text

Source. API iFixit — guides 33688, 33718, 33712, 33731, 33724

Outcome. 5 procedures translated into French; the English version kept on the EN page. Also fixed: full descriptions restored (the API truncates the summary field) and duplicated step numbering corrected
