hardware bundles / mini consoles It would be nice to add 'hardware bundles' of games to the database. With NES & SNES Classic Mini, Mega Drive Mini, Neo Geo Classic, Playstation Classic Mini, Capcom home arcade, 1Up Arcades and several other mini consoles on the market, it would be nice to integrate those as 'hardware bundles' - bundles of existing games that are bundled in one hardware release.
it could be realised with a dedicated category like Main Game, DLC, Bundle,… or just marked as Bundle. The platform where it is released could be either specific for each release or could be one general "hardware…3 votesHeya!
We recently discussed adding the ‘retro classic’ mini consoles on IGDB, likely as a Version to the main consoles.While that would help having the data for the hardware itself, currently we wouldn’t be able to have a listing of game for a particular console version. Which can prove tricky for some specific edge cases, Starfox 2 comes to mind being exclusive to SNES Mini for example.
I can confirm adding to those consoles is on our backlog as an initial step, platform Bundles though would probably be a separate task.
Thanks!

Game revisions Game revisions (like Alpha, Beta,1.0,1.1,1.2,2.0, etc) would be good for reviews, because the game can change since someone reviewed the game. Even old games have revision (Rev 1, Rev 2, like in the No-Intro notation). It is not a particularly needed data point, but some games change a lot with time.

More data for collections and franchises Please add posters, background art, and summary for collections and franchises.
Comparing a collection on TheMovieDB -> https://www.themoviedb.org/collection/645-james-bond-collection
To one on IGDB -> https://www.igdb.com/collections/james-bond
You can see it's pretty lacking on IGDB. Hope this can be improved!

Spongebob Squarepants featuring Nicktoons: Globs of Doom As a speedrunner of Spongebob Squarepants featuring Nicktoons: Globs of Doom it's hard to gain new viewers who may be interested because there is no category for this game and this should be changed.

Game icon 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).2 votes -
Actually be a database of all games Currently the IGDB is only a database of video games but is the canonical source of twitch's game list. It should include all games if it wants to be called the IGDB and not IVGDB. This includes board and card games that do not have a digital version. This choice on the data front results in non-digital games all having to be lumped into the broad board game category and having to push for individual inclusion. Either make all video games jump through the same hoops or make IGDB live up to its name.
2 votesHey there!
Understandable about the naming expectation, but i can confirm that at this point in time, and the near future at least IGDB is strictly focused on video games.
Few reasons for this:
- Coming up with video game taxonomy to set industry standard is already a monument of a task, and it makes sense for us to narrow down this goal by excluding board games, card games and other physical types.
- Twitch does have some very unique use cases beyond video games, which is why there is a distinction in being the database that powers Twitch’s gaming need, rather than being Twitch’s database itself. Our data being used by many more services than Twitch alone, we remain focused right now on video games.It’s totally possible that in a long term vision we start tackling taxonomy of non-video game products, but likely not in the near future…

Prototype datatype There are many games that ended up becoming a different game, or with prototypes so different from the official release that deserve a main entry in the database, but now there's no right way to link them (the datatypes now don't match this description, and the versions are likely to be used only to editions). A few wxamples:
EarthBound 64 / Mother 3
Gimmick Land / Tomato Adventure
Donkey Kong Racing / Sabreman Stampede
Rayman SNES / Rayman2 votes -
Game and platform icon For games and platforms there could be an icon imagem, of small size, which could be used as a visualization flair on the website and also as a data point for the API, as applications could use them to their UIs.

Campaign information and time to beat revamp The site seems to already try to track playtime to beat but i would suggest to expand a bit more on that since games are so diverse.
I would suggest for the site to add "Campaign information" to each Main type game (on bundles you see each bundled game having its own). Each game will have a list of types of gameplay they offer, the ones i came up with are (each game should have at least one):
Main Campaign: for games that have one big campaign ending usually at the credits (Ex: Undertale, Portals, Super Mario World, etc.). Games…

warzone 1 There is no Warzone 1 and warzone 2 separation on the games.
This does not make sense, we have the following categories, call of duty modern warfare (2019) we have modern warfare II and we have warzone. Why dont we have warzone 2? Its a totally different game.
This makes sense if activision does not want people to know how much people is watching the previous game. This is the only thing that makes me think its implemented this way, if its true this is not a honest move at all from twitch
