Amazing App! Very easy to use and offers a free trial to catigorize any console of you're choice. Loved the app so much and felt it was a must to buy the full version. I would definitely recommend this app for beginners to the most serious collectors. Shows everything from values, complete lists, accessories, and let's you see current auctions. Very impressive how fast I can input games using the barcode scanner. The developer responds right away to help with anything from things to be improved.
Immediately better than CLZ and even Gameye, even though Retro Game Collector only does games, which is fine. I love the artwork view and the remaining tab to show what you need, love it
I started using collection apps from this developer 10 years ago. It was the best collection app I used back then, and it is still the best app I have found to this day.
The app is great and easy to use. I love the feature were you can show of a minimum website of all your games. It's a great way for my twitch viewers to see the collection I have and request what game to stream next. I just have two problems with it. One, I wish the website you have could be customized alittle bit. It is very bland. Two, it is alittle pricey to unlock every console to categorize. Otherwise it is a great app and I do recommend it.
Overall this is a very comprehensive app and if I were based in the US this would be 5 stars from me. The problem is all the cost estimates are US based and I'm in the UK, so even though I can display the prices in GBP, this is simply a currency conversion from USD and does not represent the UK market. I collect for many consoles, but mainly the SNES. As an example I have Pocky & Rocky 2. This shows as being valued as £177 whereas in the UK it is more like a £70 game.
10/10. The app works perfectly and calculates prices as well as it possibly could. I still recommend looking at most recent sold items on ebay for the most accurate results, but nothing beats this app when it comes to getting a quick idea of what every game in your collection is worth or how complete your collection actually is. Some Greatest Hits titles need to be added and there are some extremely rare games missing here and there, but you'll be impressed with how great a job this app does.
I spent a long time searching for the greatest retro gaming collector app. Each one was good but always was missing something minor. Like, adding to the collection count if a NES game had the sleeve or stryofoam in the box. Most apps had an option to put notes on there but never really stood out. So it could be quickly over looked. This app is beyond amazing. Everything I ever wanted. With the inclusion of adding a collector option like stryofoam. Updates & developers are active on Twitter.
Good (but expensive) app, would like to be able to catalogue actual systems as well as just games, for e.g. I have several different versions of certain consoles/modded consoles/peripherals and would like to record them in one place. Barcode scanner, region sorting and the ability to dl several system packs at once (or at least mark them to dl on their own) instead of manually one at a time would also be nice.
When I switched from the iPhone 4s to a Windows Phone, this is truly the only app I missed. Then I made the switch to Android, and still, my phone never quite felt complete. I tried to find a replacement on the Google Play store but nothing even comes close to how well this app came to allowing me to see my collection digitally, value, Ebay prices, and even what I spent on the item. Excellent tool while buying games as well, quick to see what's worth buying and what's worth walking away from.
This is an absolute lifesaver for anyone who has a large collection spanning multiple systems. Yes the app is expensive, but you will recover that expense quickly by knowing what not to re-buy and where to start haggling on price. The pros: Built in price guide with current auction listings in some cases Simple interface that forces the collector to keep the catalog simple The cons: Gets lost on Sears games for early 80's consoles Lacks obscure consoles like the Arcadia 2001 and LaserActive.
Perfect app for my needs as a retro games collector. I chose this app over other because it offers nice, informative and easy to use lists of games for consoles you have with completion progress and value charts and many small but neat features and what's the most important for me - most accurate PAL prices. I used three other apps but finally chose this app as main collecting app, purchased full version and have no regrets since. Support is excellent, fast to respond and fix issues
Not a bad app, but seems to be more focused on "everything that exists" rather than your personal collection. For example, when shopping in a game store, and I need to check to see if I already have Emerald with the wireless adapter, I have to launch the app, then select my system (GBA), and then filter to see if I have it listed. While nice, almost every other app I've tried defaults to a view of my collection. Sadly, too, homebrew releases don't seem to exist at all, requiring manual entry.
great information and art work. However can not work out how to add games to my collection list? Very confusing and when you add a value it comes up as a minus number. I'll blame myself but struggling to compile a list of my collection and not paying for other consoles until its a bit easier.
fantastic app... I've been searching for something like this for a long time! I would love a way to hide or remove certain games from my list, as I exclusively collect US releases. Also I would LOVE to see WiiU, and Switch incorporated. Im an avid Nintendo collector and nothing I have found includes those two highly collectible systems. keep up the great work, love what Im seeing so far!
honestly amazing app!!! I have went through several apps that either dont have a good library, or lose support and never get updated. I can't wait for all other systems i collect for to be added. It's nice to be able to add and search through my library while on the go.
This is one of the best apps I've used for collecting purposes. Thank you so much for being able to let us have a free console list !!! I recommend this app 100% for anyone who's interested in collecting. It has an easy to use system and it let's you list off how your games condition is (CIB with or without manual just the cart etc) and you get to see how much your collection would sell for it's an amazing app!
I really enjoy using this app. However, estimated prices for game consoles boxes and game boxes individually would come in handy. Also another great feature that would be nice is if you could manually enter how much you paid for a game, so you can calculate what you paid for your collection and how much it is worth.
Excellent app and updated often!
Pretty sweet app. 20$ for all the content is well worth it. Maybe I'm missing it but I wish there was a spot for consoles and accessories. Prices also seem a little inflated. Good app overall. Will change to 5 stars if consoles and accessories are included even if it was it own category.
Needs some tweaks like filtering out Pal and nfr carts at the same time but it's been awesome.
I made suggestions quite a while back, via email... though it has been a while, and I don't remember everything I suggested. My usual complaint about a few apps out there, is them NOT functioning in landscape mode! Not every user is using it on cell phone. I have an Android tablet PC, and using it "portrait-mode" isn't really an option! It's one of the reasons I quit using it. I tend to edit my "lists" on my desktop PC's, as it's easier to do with a keyboard and a mouse. PLEASE fix it!!!
