I've realized another information one can extract from the database I am building is how many of a certain item sells each month. This can give an idea of how easy is to find one based on when it pops up on eBay.

This is not information that is easily obtainable any other way I know. 😀

Another update

- added Atari Pong (for those looking at the classic game machine)
- started to add Apple computers. For now iMac G3 (color ones), iBook G3 (the clamshell colored ones) and PowerMac G4. I am thinking of adding the Cube as a separate entry because it tends to be looked for and it is somewhat more rare.

Oh and the scripts found a Kyro I sale (in US, since in UK there were already some)!

Update:

- added original Playstation console
- fixed some CPU searching logic so now there is a healthy number of Pentium MMX processors for example (and more 386/486 cpus)
- added IBM PS/1 and IBM PS/2 computers
- added Pentium MMX based computers
- cleaned up and strengthen various rules so that overall results are better

Amiga results are kind of a mess right now, so I will focus on cleaning those with proper rules.

Careful that you don't get actual arcade cabinets...

Good point, I had not thought of that.

Update:

- no new items, however I have aggressively filtered Amiga and Commodore categories. There are still some false positives, but a lot less.

Update:

- added a bunch of LucasArts games

• * Zak
  * Loom
  * Maniac Mansion
  * Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
  * Secret of Monkey Island
  * Monkey Island 2
  * Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis

Maniac Mansion I look for PC specifically. I might add NES/C64/Amiga versions of that games too separately.

Or, better I might end up having NES/C64/Amiga software category all separate. We'll see...
