Collections

Probably has been covered already but I searched and couldn't find anything, but I was wondering how often the database gets updated when adding games to a collection like 3ds for example I have maybe 9 right now but the database shows only so many, I know maintaining everything is a massive undertaking but was just curious if it was "when we are able..." or do you wait till so many release then add them in?

    Depends on who the volunteer(s) doing work on that system in the database are, but yes, it is done when people have the time/info.



    Also, if you have made a collection in your home and titles are added to the main database, they won't show up in your personal collection. You have to recreate a new collection with the latest data, and it will only ever have listed what was done to the database up to the point you made it.

    Get all of the information for the games not in there, UPC Code, release date, publisher, etc etc (all the things that our database has), and just post it in here. Someone will be able to add it. The main thing with adding games is having the information needed gathered into one place, its easy after that.

    This is not true, and if people are doing it this way, ouch!



    If you already have a collection, you don't need to recreate it to add new titles in the database -- just click the "Add Games" button and click on Search, which will find the missing titles for you. Then just check the ones to add and click "Add Selected".

    Well that's a relief, and sorry to be passing on false info.
