How it works:
  • Choose a relevant category for your idea and check to see if any other users have already submitted this suggestion before creating your own
  • Be clear with your suggestion, provide examples and solutions to the problem you are posing. Suggestions without actionable feedback may be closed without comment
  • Upvote existing ideas, as opposed to creating multiple similar requests
  • Be sure to share your suggestion with others to gain more support!
  • Note: Suggestions are not guarantees that we will take action on an idea. We will try our best to communicate why an idea may not work, but may not always be able to share that information.
  • Titles that are unclear or unnecessarily vulgar may be reworded to better reflect the request for ease of discovery

  1. It would be cool if the date the game was published was also in the game info card, next to the little text blurb summary.

  2. I think other categories for covers aside from Region-localization should be added.

    Such as whether it's Digital or Physical (since game covers can differ between a physical box or the digital gamestore, i.e. PSN/xbox store/etc, even though it seems to be a fairly rare occurence).

    Maybe even being able to say what console(s) a specific cover is for, which is helpful for some cases, such as games that might have different covers for re-releases across different generations of platforms (which also seems rare, but it does happen, i.e. the Devil May Cry HD collection has different covers for its ps3/xbox360…

  3. Currently when you're adding a Classification rating to games you cannot find a link to search for the title on the available classification system whether that be GRAC, ACB, ESRB, PEGI, CERO, USK or CLASSIND, I think it would be beneficial to have a link next to the titles, for example; "USK (German Standard) - Search For Title Here", the text "Search For Title Here" would be a link to the following URL: "https://usk.de/en/?s&jump=usktitle&post_type=usktitle" or another example; "ClassInd (Brazilian Standard) - Search For Article Here", where the text "Search For Article Here" would be a link to the…

  5. There's already a request for logos and I would like to add this request for icons, like the ones used for the game shortcuts.
    It is common for computer games to have them, and some other platforms have icons of the games in some places (like on the memory card management system).

  8. I don't thing it's a good thing that you greyed out the options to add an upcoming game as "Played" or "Playing". Many of these games have demos or betas available to try them and we won't be able to track them.

  9. The remake of work, Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer (IGDB ID: 78341, NDS Shiren) appears on Twitch, but the original, Fushigi no Dungeon 2: Furai no Shiren (IGDB ID: 103496, original Shiren), is registered with IGDB but does not appear on Twitch. NDS Shiren is not just a port, it's a completely new remake, and there's no way original Shiren can be broadcast under the NDS Shiren category.
    Twitch shows other remakes, but why doesn't it show Shiren? The reason may be that it's considered an alternative to other games, as shown on the following page.

  10. Since people aren't going to automatically know what this is and won't necessarily want to go digging and researching it, why not just title it properly?

  13. These types of trailers are common for fighting games and even games like Overwatch had them back in the day.

    Hi! We think this is a great idea, and wouldn't be hard to do. It's indeed a good way to mark all those character trailers (there are a lot of them). We have put this in our backlog and will try to get to it as soon as possible. Thanks!

  14. Please add the game Hyakki Demons World of Demons to your games category.
    I want more people to know about this wonderful game. The guidelines from the officials also give us permission to distribute it. Thank you for your consideration.

  16. /genres return the following array:
    [
    { id: 4, name: 'Fighting' },
    { id: 5, name: 'Shooter' },
    { id: 7, name: 'Music' },
    { id: 8, name: 'Platform' },
    { id: 9, name: 'Puzzle' },
    { id: 10, name: 'Racing' },
    { id: 11, name: 'Real Time Strategy (RTS)' },
    { id: 12, name: 'Role-playing (RPG)' },
    { id: 13, name: 'Simulator' },
    { id: 14, name: 'Sport' }
    ]

    containing only 10 genres but many /games have genre ids that are not listed in said endpoint.

    for example 15 & 32 : Strategy & Indie and some more

  17. I've come across a few videogame categories that should be merged together. First are duplicate categories for the same game:

    • "Digimon Battle" and "Digimon RPG" are the same game, the latter being the title of the current English release.
    • "Digimon World 2003" and "Digimon World 3" refer to the same game; the title change was a region difference. Should merge and rename to "Digimon World 3 / Digimon World 2003".
    • There are two categories named "Digimon" when I search for them, one with a cover and one without, not sure if that's a bug or something that needs to be…

  18. I think the "Want" and "Playing" options are good as they can get, but when it comes to "Played", I think it should be more than that.
    * There are games that I've beaten and/or completed
    * There are games that I started to play, but then I stopped playing and won't get back
    * There are games that I started to play, and took a break from, but I'm planning to get back to them eventually

    I don't know the best way to present these buttons on the game pages. For example, when you click the "Played" button, then…

  19. A new game type "Expanded Bundle. I have run into a couple of situations now where a game bundles a couple of older games within it's new release. Right now they usually sit as a main game, since the new content falls under a new game, but adding this would allow us to link the bundled games additionally to reduce confusion.

  20. I'm experiencing an issue where the maximum number of objects allowed by the "limit" property isn't being returned, despite that number of objects existing.

    Consider this query:

    {baseUrl}/games
    body (text/plain): fields name,cover.imageid,firstrelease_date,platforms.name;limit: 10;offset: 30;search "halo";

    It's currently only returning 9 objects, but a search on IGDB.com reveals that there are 73 total and other queries (e.g., offset 40;) give 10 results as expected.
