Notice - Help Wanted!

I'm actively seeking talented, motivated people to join the staff team! I'm looking for collectors and players of anime based games who are passionate about their hobby and want to share that with as many people as possible.

I'm not able to pay anyone, but I can honestly say I feel like I'm building a valuable resource and doing something good working on this site, and I think you will too. Please read about the positions and email me if interested.

I'm looking for people for the following positions:

Staff Reviewers - Looking for qualified reviewers to play Japanese import games for the PS, PS2, PSP, etc...

Must be interested in anime and games and motivated to find and write articles of interest to anime gamers. Knowledge of the current Japanese games industry/subscriptions to Japanese game magazines a plus. Tell me what's currently out there that visitors to this site would be interested in.

Main responsibilities include adding screen shots, adding listings, and helping expand the site to cover other systems. Ideas and skills for expanding and improving the site welcome. Let me see a site you currently maintain and any ideas you have to improve this site.

"I sorted out the various Ojamajo Doremi games on the Playstation last night. There seem to be 7 games, two versions each of three games, Ojamajo Doremi Mahodou English Festival, More! Ojamajo Doremi Mahodou Smile Party, and Ojamajo Doremi Mahodou Dance Carnival!, one with the Kid's Station controller and one without. There is also a game called Ojamajo Doremi Rainbow Colored Paradise which is not listed on playstation.jp that I can tell."

"I'm hoping to get my hands on a few more anime based PSX games soon. I would like to have that page finished up, but I'm really only around half-way done. It is time consuming and a little tedius at this point, but I still think it's a really cool idea, and am excited about seeing it finished. I may try to work on it again some soon."

Hello!

Welcome to the PSX Anime List, your source for information on anime based games for Sony's Playstation systems. Here you can find all the publication information you are looking for such as release dates, publishing companies, product numbers, and original retail prices. Find descriptive information such as genres, number of players, supported peripherals, and memory requirements as well as descriptions, staff reviews, reader reviews, and translated magazine reviews. Entries includes the largest amount of visual information possible including, box art, screenshots, telephone cards, ads, and photo extras. Stay up to date with frequent and informative news posts on the latest anime based video game releases for Playstation systems. Browse the directory of games, write your own game reviews, and find import game retailers selling new and used games.

This site was started as a fan site for anime based games on the Playstation. I was frustrated with the lack of English language resources for Playstation games that included solid publication information, screenshots, box art, and descriptions and covered games based on anime series. I began by cataloging release information from Sony's official Playstation page, translating game descriptions from Japanese to English, scanning my own box art and capturing screenshots. I got permission from Anime News Network, AnimeNfo, and GameFAQs, to link to various pertinent information on their sites. I launched the site on January 1st of 2005 but much of the work was done during 2004.

This site is constantly growing with new content, news, and resources. I intend to continue to expand the site to include better features, and more information about anime based games on the various Playstation platforms and maybe even others such as Sega's and NEC's. There are still some entries for Playstation/PSX that are incomplete including missing box art or screen shots. There are also still games missing from the listing. Games from the following series I intend to add or am researching as possible additions are:

Angelique
Bakusou kyoudai Let's & Go!! Eternal Wings
Croket! Kindan no Kinka Box
Crush Gear Turbo
Dancing Blade
Doraemon
Fushigi no Kuni no Angelique
Genso Maden Saiyuki

Please feel free to contact me with submissions including box art, screen shots, and games missing from the list. If you are suggesting a game for addition please check the list thoroughly to make sure it's not already included. I've presented games by their translated names so it's sometimes easy to overlook a game that is already there. I'd also recommend including the SLPM/SLPS number, and a link to a listing of the anime that is featured in the game on either Anime News Network or AnimeNfo. Also I'm not currently including games from Dragon Ball, Zoids, Gundam, or Sanrio. There are a number of games based on these series and I frankly don't have any interesting listing them all when there are so many more interesting and less documented games still missing from the list. I'm currently only adding PSX/PS1 era Playstation games though I intend to expand to PS2 and PSP shortly.

Special thanks to: Eien ni Hen for providing translation assistance on many of the game descriptions. Luis Cruz and BT for early assistance with the site. John Smith for contributing a large list of games to be added to the site (I'm still planning to add them, really!). GameFAQs, Anime News Network, and AnimeNfo for giving permission to link to their sites, and for being generally great resources. Sony for making Playstation gaming systems and keeping a high quality and informative official site. And the game developers, anime studios, and manga authors that make it all possible.
