Site Feedback / Suggestion: Hybrid Games

« on: January 29, 2019, 11:31:09 pm »

Can games that were made to work on multiple platforms be given their own category? I noticed this with Xbox Magazine demos that work with the Xbox and Xbox 360, that people added the game twice both for the original Xbox and then again for the 360, and I think it really clutters the site and makes inaccurate portrayal of the collector count.

I think giving a special category titled "Xbox/Xbox360 Hybrid Demo" for the demo discs and "Xbox/Xbox 360 Hybrid" for official release games (like Sneak King and the other Burger King games) would help a great deal in cleaning this up and making games easier to view within a user's collection.

Hardware and Tech / Nintendo 3DS XL With Wifi Issues

« on: January 28, 2019, 07:34:42 pm »

I bought a 3DS XL on eBay last year that was advertised as fully functional, but the Wifi would not stay connected. I looked this issue up and people said either a loose Wifi card, a bad Wifi card, or a motherboard issue.

I cleaned the Wifi card in the system and that did not work. I tried changing some settings and that worked for maybe 15 minutes then it quit. I bought and put a used Wifi card in the system, and that seemed to work, but then it didn't.

So I am all out of options now and further Google searching indicates that it might be a faulty motherboard. I can buy a new motherboard for it for about $20, but before I do that is there anything else I can try? Is there some kind of setting I've missed or a programming issue?

Site Feedback / Site Suggestion: Price Plotter Graph For Collection Overview

« on: January 25, 2019, 12:07:44 am »

This is an idea that I thought would be useful for some collectors who want to visually see how much they spend on certain games. Like the pie graph shown for collection overview (could this be able to be changed to different graph styles by the way?), a graph that sees the value put for your games and maps it out per dollar amount given (less than $1 games, $1 games, $2 games, $3 games, etc) up to whatever the highest amount the person has in their collection (not counting null values of course).

Another idea would be to map out the Pricecharting data against the spent amount as a double bar graph, it would allow collectors to get a rough estimate of how much their collection is worth versus how much they spent on it.

A couple of small things that I think might make a big difference to the long-time collectors.

Video Game Database Discussion / 007: From Russia With Love Name Discussion

« on: January 16, 2019, 04:27:46 pm »

Why is James Bond 007: From Russia with Love listed here as "007: From Russia With Love " when everywhere else including wikipedia it is called James Bond 007: From Russia with Love? I just had a name change request denied to change it.

Site Feedback / eMail Notification On Friend Updates

« on: August 09, 2018, 06:25:47 pm »

Is there any way a notification system can be implemented so that when someone you are friends with adds a game to their database or their wish lists that you can be notified of it via eMail? I think that would be a handy feature for those of us who do not frequent the site very often compared with others that do.

Classic Video Games / Outlaw Volleyball Cover Art Variation On Xbox Classic

« on: January 01, 2016, 03:54:43 pm »

I noticed that there is two different covers for this game, and I never noticed it before. What's the deal with that? Was it a censor?

Version I have:
