Seems to malfunction on iPhone X

Does this app have a known issue with iPhone X display or ios12? Search bar doesn’t function and review text is off center and doesn’t scroll. Fix this issue and this is a fun little app for collectors or for a retro game enthusiast looking do some light game review reading.

Search function

After the last update, the search function doesn’t work. Makes it a pain to find a game quickly. Other than that, I love the app to keep track of my games and to see how much they are worth when wanting to buy them. Please fix the search function.

Disappointed yet hopefull

I am giving this app 1 star only because it crashes when I open it. I fully believe this app has five star potential and will keep it in my phone in hopes of the issues being sorted out, which would most likely change my review.

Awesome

Really great app! Has tons of features and information. The only feature it is lacking is a “do not own list” or “missing carts”. The app can tell you what is in your collection, so it should be able to show you the carts you are missing (manuals and such can be checked individually). This would super helpful when browsing video game stores. If you are the developer please consider adding this feature. Otherwise a fantastic app!

Love the app.

Please allow people to export a list
I trade video games a lot and people ask what I have and what I need. It would be very helpful. A simple text file would be just fine

Incredible!!!

Well done app guys! Would be neat to see the NES systems broken down into each release/boxing configuration with pricing for each. And I encourage you to do the same thing with SNES - book & app. I’m a buyer for both!

Great Promise but missing crucial features

This would be a must have - except they still haven’t added the ability to export your collection data. It also seems like ‘update pricing’ feature is bugged and doesn’t work at all. Tried reaching out to the devs and got no response. Very disappointing as I really love everything else about the app.

edit*** heard from the dev, they indicated they were fixing the price charting feature and would add exporting in an april update. Price charting now works, but no update yet.

Great product but wish it was iPad

This product is great. So many wonderful features, an attractive interface and online support for updated game prices. There are several ways to view the collections/categories. I wish the fast scrubbing alphabetical jump menu on the right was permanent, cause it’s hard to control with it auto-disappearing when not in use. The most critical complaint I have is that I wish this product was on iPad (preferably in landscape).

All in all, a great product and well worth the price.

The search functionality that you requested was added in version 1.2. We hope that you enjoy it!

One Amazing App!

Anyone who collects or plays or collects classic NES games should strongly consider this app. It’s great for keeping track of what games you have and what ones you want to get in the future. It’s definitely worth the price!

Fantastic app

The finest NES collecting app I've ever used to date. Well thought out, comprehensive and incredibly detailed. I would highly recommend it to any new or seasoned collectors for a multitude of reasons. Well done!

I do have a request; I currently have 3 games, all were licensed in PAL regions, that I can't locate within the app (The NewZealand Story, The Blue Shadow and McDonaldland). Is there a way to add them? I can't seem to add them manually, and they're not located within the app itself. (If they are, I can't find them)
