:::That leaves the Games:Category kind of useless - besides, the wiki includes games that are only compatible with ScummVM in the early stages, and therefore are not available for viewing on the compatibility page. The way it's set up now makes someone have to know what engine a particular game runs on in order to find out if scummvm supports a game, which seems to defeat the original purpose of category:games, which was to show which games scummvm supports.

::::But, this isn't always the case. [[Simon the Sorcerer Pinball]] will never be supported. | |||
::::You contradicted yourself there. You said "the wiki includes games that are only compatible with ScummVM in the early stages" but then you said "the original purpose of category:games, which was to show which games scummvm supports". | |||
::::Before we moved them to their engine/game subcats, the games page was just getting too large and it was listing too many games. -[[User:Clone2727|Clone2727]] 20:42, 24 January 2007 (UTC) | |||
:Nice idea :) I think this page should be linked in the main navigation pane (currently no page links to it), together with the "Fan games" category. This would make it easier for users to locate the game they want. After all, not everyone knows which game engine supports each game. Also, I think that every game should be linked to this category, so that the user can easily return to it (although this might be avoided if this page is directly linked from the main links pane). Thoughts? -[[User:Md5|Md5]] 18:39, 20 January 2007 (UTC) | :Nice idea :) I think this page should be linked in the main navigation pane (currently no page links to it), together with the "Fan games" category.
