Title: New Sidebar with Game Anniversaries
Post by: jason on April 04, 2023, 01:03:21 am

Will populate up to 10 games released X years ago today. This shows up on the right side near the bottom of the right sidebar (feed). Not currently showing on mobile at the moment, but available in Desktop view.

It seems odd looking at this sidebar because no consoles are listed. Since the images are so small, sometimes you can't tell what console the games are from.

Apart from trivia purposes, this new feature has been helpful in updating incorrect release date information.

It is a long requested feature that I'm glad finally has shown up. I had originally wanted to manage my backlog based on game anniversaries so I had talked about it years ago.

It would be good to add platform if it's going to link to specific entries, like we see for new submittals.
