How do you figure out the compiling dates of all these protos? If you can you should do that for the protos I've uploaded too. If you can, I'll make a list of articles I've created.--Mathuser (talk) 08:21, November 21, 2016 (EST)

It varies from system to system. For games that use CDFS (PS1, PS2, Saturn, Sega CD, etc) will often have a date attributed on the main executable file, or sometimes have a real date in the volume information sector on the disc image itself. For ROMs, some developers include an actual build date in the ROM (like Aladdin, Jungle Book, The Terminator, etc) but it doesn't always happen. redump.org will post the main executable and often the volume date for CD based games, which is usually my go to for finding that information. When something doesn't exist in redump.org I just get the game myself and take a look. Evilhamwizard (talk) 15:00, November 21, 2016 (EST)

Nintendo Channel ROMs

I saw your old post on Sonic Retro about ripping DS demo ROMs from Nintendo Channel servers. I have some questions:

• Do you (or anyone else) still have any rips (especially ones that aren't on the No-Intro dat)?
• Does the method still work? Or are the servers down now?
