Thanks for the compliment.  :-)

Right now, you can click on the heading "Country", and the games will be 
sorted in sequence:
Japan followed by USA - but I will be augmenting the search/filter 
capabilities soon, to separate these if you desire.

I see... the covers are there for identification and general information 
purposes, rather than duplication purposes.

There are some obvious copyright issues involved with making 
high-resolution, printer-ready scans of that nature...  and we'd prefer not 
to become embroiled in any "problem" type areas.

Besides, you probably don't know how much work it is to re-scan 900 
games.   :-)

That information is there - "case type".
This includes those "thick CD", "thin CD", and "double CD" cases that came 
with certain games.
But it currently appears only when you show the game.

The US Hucards are currently divided into "one-piece HuCard CD Case" and 
"No Case".
PC Engine releases also have "HuCard tray insert for CD Case".

>Could you incorporate some kind of rarity into the list?

Too subjective for one of us to rate at the moment.
But areas for discussion/review/rating will be coming soon.  Perhaps we can 
have various areas for voting... not just "8/10" for game, but maybe 
"overall desirability", and "perceived rarity", etc.
