Badge levels are determined by the total of Games in one's collection and not total item. At this time, I believe your current count of Games-type items is 3,968.

This might be an embarrassing question but how do you get badges? I also have over 4k games and I don't have a badge.  My profile says I have no badges.

It should be automatic.

Your profile also says you don't have any edits. DB backend confirms this. Have you never actually edited an item before?

There is also the fact that you have capital letters in your name. By default the site won't create usernames with capitals and getting a name like that has to be done manually. It could be related.

At first, it seemed like the issue only appeared when more than one uppercase letter was a part of a username, as seen from the below accounts:

Although these profiles seem to suggest otherwise:

For each sub-category, their respective items have a specific Item Type which members can see outlined in the Collection Breakdown section on About pages. Here is your page for quick reference. As you can see, you do not only have Games-type items added to your collection. You have a small number of Accessories added, but the the main reason you've not reached the 4,000 Games total is due to PSP UMD Video items added which are classified as Home Videos. I'm not sure if Demos serve toward the badge total count or not, which I also mention because you have a few added.

yeah I figered that out myselfthe psp at elast I do hope the demo counts since I have only 1  which was  soemthing you needed to buy.

for me this is actualy a god thing I was so sad my 4000th game as just an random one now I have an 2nd chance to make it memorable

I just wish I knew if demo counted or not.

@dhaabi at what number of games am I now exactly? I cna use that number to find out if the demo does count or not  since I have 32 umd movies  so I should take that number you cna give me add the umd movies and compare to the current displayed number
