Please keep the discussion on list.

If you have a basic knowledge of databases, sure you could use a sqlite database to store you persistent objects. That's pretty reasonable.
Not to mention a lot of stuff can interface with that database. If you want to build a web app to manage the player database, you can, most of the frameworks handles sqlite. Actually if you don't need a web app, a lot of sqlite admin app already exists.

Note that the database is suitable only for the data. For serializing a python object with its code, you need pickle.
