Used to Live this App - Now Unusable

I should have rated this app earlier because I loved it! Was able to make detailed notations of the collection and at a glance pull data from PriceCharting and other data sites. But since the new update, it’s literally unusable. Games don’t populate when trying to scroll, search freezes and is inaccurate. Work hard in trying to find a game, click on it...multiple times...and the wrong game comes up. I know Pat had struggled with the previous coding company and got another but I cannot use this app in its current state. Also from a troubleshooting standpoint, I’ve tried this on multiple iPhones. Same result.

Great Promise but missing crucial features

This would be a must have - except they still haven’t added the ability to export your collection data. It also seems like ‘update pricing’ feature is bugged and doesn’t work at all. Tried reaching out to the devs and got no response. Very disappointing as I really love everything else about the app.edit*** heard from the dev, they indicated they were fixing the price charting feature and would add exporting in an april update. Price charting now works, but no update yet.

No longer works with iPhone X

I bought this when it first came out and loved it. So I (grudgingly) understand why I had to reload all 600+ of my games due to the update/rework of the app. Ok. However, as others have said, the scrolling freezes, the collection list doesn’t work (says 1000 games, only four show). I searched for another nes tracking app but struck out. I have no working list now to track down the final 60 or so. Or, if a fire comes, I’m screwed. I’m holding out hope that you fix this, Pat. You are our only hope. I’ll go back to 5 stars and be very grateful! Thanks

A Nintendo collector's best friend

In spite of already having the book written by Pat Contri that contains most of this info, I found that the unique feature with which you can keep track of your own NES collection worth the price in itself. This is one of the best resources you can have on hand if you collect, thanks to all of the detail that went into compiling this app and its hardcover book counterpart - from label variations and region exclusive games, to info on some of the more rare and obscure cartridges (even non-licensed ones).If you are new to the hobby - or are a seasoned game collector - this app is definitely a definitive guide on everything you could ever want to know about the NES library.

Awesome

Really great app! Has tons of features and information. The only feature it is lacking is a “do not own list” or “missing carts”. The app can tell you what is in your collection, so it should be able to show you the carts you are missing (manuals and such can be checked individually). This would super helpful when browsing video game stores. If you are the developer please consider adding this feature. Otherwise a fantastic app!

Fantastic app

The finest NES collecting app I've ever used to date. Well thought out, comprehensive and incredibly detailed. I would highly recommend it to any new or seasoned collectors for a multitude of reasons. Well done!I do have a request; I currently have 3 games, all were licensed in PAL regions, that I can't locate within the app (The NewZealand Story, The Blue Shadow and McDonaldland). Is there a way to add them? I can't seem to add them manually, and they're not located within the app itself. (If they are, I can't find them)

Bad update

I have used this app to keep track of my NES collection for quite some time and to check for prices when shopping at local game stores. Within the last few months, some update or changes were made to the app and now it is extremely annoying to use, as it freezes often and is hard to select individual game cartridges to read about. Do not even try searching for a game because the screens freeze and bleed into one another, creating a layered visual of images that make it impossible to navigate through. While I once would rate this app as a 5/5, I now rate it as a 1/5.

Great product but wish it was iPad

This product is great. So many wonderful features, an attractive interface and online support for updated game prices. There are several ways to view the collections/categories. I wish the fast scrubbing alphabetical jump menu on the right was permanent, cause it’s hard to control with it auto-disappearing when not in use. The most critical complaint I have is that I wish this product was on iPad (preferably in landscape).All in all, a great product and well worth the price.

Retro gamer MUST

This app is a must for the retro gamer. If you collect or looking to start, this is the app for you. I coach teens and they know I collect as they call it "old games". This app has allowed me to show them my game collection and teach them about the games and system that I love. Also I use to have a list on my phone of my games for when I was out looking for games. Now it's all in the app.

A great app for any NES fan!

First, the positives: I love how easy this app is to use. Any feature you would want is right there and you'll find some pretty amazing facts about your favorite games.The app covers all released NES games, not just the "Official" games.The things I would improve are adding the NES Cleaning Kit to Accessories, adding third party NES clone systems to the "Systems" tab, a wishlist/shopping list would be nice, and allow people to adjust value of collection based on condition, including a flag or list for games you own but want it in better condition.
