-
- Please mail me your reviews of SNES games. I don't play or like enough
- games to try them all myself. I will include any review or collection
- of reviews I'm sent (unless it's full of nasty words).
-
- Since I don't plan to do any editing or screening; try not to send
- reviews that just agree with what's already in the database. Don't send
- me anything unless you are the original author. You will be attributed.
-
- Oh yes, in SNES.INDEX I'm trying to keep a reasonably accurate list
- of released and announced SNES titles along with their label, size
- and projected release date. I welcome all additions and corrections...
- but please, please send only the corrected lines -- not a corrected file
- (since other changes may have been made by the time I get yours).
-
- Now get cracking and let's see if this is going to work or not.
- I'm willing to put effort into this, and if you send me a review
- I should have it on the disk in well under 24 hours.
-
- Send your reviews to: jim@brownvm.brown.edu (James Mathiesen)
