Decent App, Few Problems
Response from developer
Data’s just not there. But I’m working on it!
amazing collection manager with one thing I wish it had...
The only thing I would like to see is pricing for non-ntsc games. I can add all of my Japanese games with no problem, but it doesn't give me any pricing information on them.
Otherwise, this thing is perfect.
Better than the competitors
Best game management app
I also like the ability to rate your products as this has helped me path the way working towards a mint collection.
Great Game Collection App 👍

Thank you! I hope to make it an ever better experience for PAL and NTSCj collectors once www.gameye.app releases!
Decent
The fact I can’t directly add titles from the game list to the wish list. Having to use the pop up list means I can’t see anything but the title and if I switch to a browser the app loses everything I tagged and I have to start over.
Also the formatting of the list could use some options. Too much wasted space left and right of the titles cutting them off. Options to hide columns in the list would be nice.
Hands Down the Best Option for Game Collectors

So far, so good
Great app
I have three complaints with this app.
First, it downloads the entire encyclopedia of information about every game ever entered to the online database it uses. This should be an optional feature. I am a relatively small collector, and I simply don’t care about the information on tens of thousands of games for PC and consoles I’ve never heard of. For me it’s not just a waste, it’s kind of annoying to even have. I should be able to turn off this download, or at least delete out the parts I don’t want.
Second, the database and therefore the app includes hacks of games. While I’m sure some people like that, I only care about authentic games made by major studios. However, there’s no way to filter out hacked titles. When I do a search for Pokemon I only want to see Nintendo-approves games, but instead it pulls up those plus dozens of hacked versions that people programmed in their basements. It would be great to filter out those results.
Third, I’m unclear on when information and prices update, as the app sometimes has outdated prices. It would be cool if there were a refresh button to get updated prices.
Aside from that I really like the app, it’s for sure the best available for my own needs.

Hey Varanus, there will be significant filtering and data enhancements once the new database launches at www.gameye.app! For the encyclopedia, you can’t delete chunks of it but if you don’t really care about that you can set the tab order in the settings to move out of the way.
Please see feedback

Not yet because the source db at thegamesdb.net doesn’t have that info. But once everything is setup at www.gameye.app there absolutely will be!
