Contents page still seems unwieldy to me.  Maybe it's time to kill all the direct links to sub-secions, and instead have the primary sections link to their own contents page.  A quick descriptive paragraph for primary section should still be included on the main Contents page.  Anyone agree, disagree?  Anyone else even reading the talk pages?

I think without video cards or onboard video, there wouldn't BE any video going to any of the other options. My feeling is that video cards/onboard video should come first, with the physical screen type they will be viewed on second.

I also like moving the ArcadeVGA to the video cards section

Toned down the contents page

The contents page will get more topics as the Wiki expands. The keyboard encoder section for example eats up a lot of space and consists largely out of productcodes. As the Wiki gets bigger it is impossible to list all subsections of articles on the contents page. If a section would require mention on the contents page, the section should probably have its' own article then. I removed those entries if people object, please discuss here first. Remember that we can put those back in at any time we wish. Felsir 02:22, 8 March 2006 (EST)

Instead of removing I commented them out ( < ! --- tags ). Makes it easier to revert. Anyway, if we decide to keep the page like this I will remove the commented parts. Felsir 02:30, 8 March 2006 (EST)

Toning down further?

Contents page still seems unwieldy to me. Maybe it's time to kill all the direct links to sub-secions, and instead have the primary sections link to their own contents page. A quick descriptive paragraph for primary section should still be included on the main Contents page. Anyone agree, disagree? Anyone else even reading the talk pages?

Software Section

The Emulator section is not listed. It seems to me that Arcade Emulators, Game Consoles, Handheld consoles, and Home Computers should be under the emulator section of Software, as they are directed at the emulators to run those systems, and the remaining TV Games sections should be elsewhere, like:

Software

Other Systems
