ST-V scans/wiki

Since I've been hunting for PCB scans of ST-V titles lately I realized there's not much out there. So, I borrowed the idea from the MVS scans site and created an ST-V wiki for collecting pictures of ST-V carts and PCB's. I know there's a few wikis covering the ST-V on the Intertubes but I thought it could be of interest if we could collect whatever info/art/repair logs/oddities about the ST-V system here.
It's still very much a work in progress and un-sexy. We've managed to add a few games but it's far from done. If you've got games that are missing scans (or bootlegs/other versions) or anything else ST-V related, feel free to upload and write a few lines or throw them my way and I'll take care of it.
Please take a look and tell me what you think ->

Looks good. Was ST-V bootlegging a big problem? I didn't think that system had anywhere near the problem that MVS had.

Cotton 2 was the biggest problem, but I think RSG boots are kicking about too.

Honestly, I don't know if bootlegging has been a big problem, other than for the Cotton titles (2 and Boomerang). Definitely not as widespread as among the MVS's at least. Most of the games have been fairly cheap and easily available but so far we've spotted bootlegs of Terra Diver, Steep Slope Sliders and Decahtlete IIRC so they do exist. Even among the cheaper games. I'm fairly new to the ST-V system myself so it was partly out of my own curiosity that I started the wiki.

You need the 4.5 mm version of these:

Don't really know the correct name for them but I've heard people calling them game bits. You can also make a tool out of a toothbrush or Bic pen

Here's images of my 12 Japanese carts. I've got a Decathlete somewhere, not sure on the region of it, probably Euro.
Looks like you've got images of most of them already, but maybe some will come in useful. I've also linked to your wiki in my blog, hope you don't mind!
Nicely laid out in my blog:

Feel free to use whatever images you want from there.

Looks like turntablism's RSG booty/conversion might have started life as a Sega Bass Fishing from my photo's.

Much obliged
The more photos to pick from, the merrier
Might find different versions, boots etc that can be useful. I'll add a link back to your blog from the wiki

Nice find
This is precisely the kind of stuff I'd like to get up on the wiki.
