Title: brand new user, just noticed, can't add systems?
Post by: INVISIGOTH on July 21, 2014, 06:40:11 AM
Hi, I just started to attempt to use this website to maybe add some of my collection, and before I even add 1 thing, I noticed that you can only add games and not systems?   I could be missing it; if so please tell me how to do it. 


Please don't tell me that I don't need to add systems because if I add "super mario brothers" then NES will automatically be listed.     I want to be able to do stuff  like add 15 NES's and/or mini NES's,  or add a TurboGrafx 16 even if I don't own games for that system.


  I hope the people who make this site read this (if there is no "add system" feature)  and soon program that ability.

Just search under genre "System" and/or type "Hardware".

I think we have a lot of NES systems documented. ;)

If you're having trouble finding the system, please try the name in its full entirety, as we're sometimes missing the shortened names as keywords. In this case, Nintendo Entertainment System brought up 74 results. If you find we're missing keywords for something, please feel free to add them by making an edit on the Game Info page by clicking on "Submit Info" and supplying the keywords (or alternate names, or popular references) in the Alternate Title field.

ok I figured it out :D

another question:   where it says "Rating" is that for condition, or for how much you like it?

I believe that's how much you like it. On game pages, the average rating is shown.

Correct. You can enter in condition or any other notes you so desire in the "Description" field when adding it to your collection.
Some people use it to track the day they bought a game, hoe much it cost them, if they have beaten it, etc

I use it to list condition or if i need a replacement.
