Misprints: Dungeon Master 2 is listed as a Super Famicom game in the International Outlook section (uses correct icon, however); Chip 'N Dale Rescue Rangers 2 is printed as Rescue Rangers in the Review Crew section.

Editor's notes: I've corrected some of the game titles for index purposes (e.g., Akumajou Dracula X: Chi no Rondo is printed as Vampire Killer Dracula X).
