EAN Integration (bar Codes from retail versions) The EAN on the back of packages are a unique way to identify different versions of games. This could help to find details about a game and revision.

My "Episodic Type" category is missing (Asleep: Ato 2) I need to bring online a specific category of my game (Asleep) with a new episode.
We're launching Asleep divided by Episodes. The first one "Asleep: Ato 1" was released last year. The second one "Asleep: Ato 2" will be released very soon. We already have both categories in IGDB, but apparently "Asleep: Ato 2" was removed from Twitch categories, just for being an "Extension/Episode" type in IDGB - We can't change "Asleep: Ato 2" for a Main Game type there.
Can someone from Twitch help us with this, I already tried Twitch Support, but there is no topic related…

Full/Partial Controller Support for Title Adding a Full/Partial Controller Support column for titles in the database.
This would be monumental for indexing games that can be played from the couch or not.

Have a Franchise/Series as a Category. I feel like there should be a general category for certain series. Such as Zelda, Mario, Megaman, RE, Digimon all under one catergory instead of individual games(unless they are a new). IGDB already implements this under what they call "Collections."
What do you think? People who play older titles but are a part of said series' community would be more in their line of audience. It's better than having them spread out in random places like Retro or Just Chatting. So instead of having massive communities around certain games, whether they are thriving or dying, you can have a continuous…

STAFF/CAST/CREDITS section like IMDB IGDB needs a staff/cast/credits sections for each game, like IMDB, so devs can add themselves to projects they worked on with their roles and people don't need to look up the credits on youtube each time they want to check (which can be not enough because sometimes people go uncredited, or are not properly credited inside the game). That opens the door to dev pages, also in the style of IMDB, having, for example, a Shigeru Miyamoto page that lists all the games he worked on and his roles automatically

Add license or type of software This could be good, a another attribute/property in the games about the license.
For example: Minetest is under LGPL, Tux Racer is under GPL...
I want to filter the games by free software or open source.

Genma Onimusha I'd like for twitch to make a category for Genma Onimusha. Onimusha Warlords got re-release in 2002 known as Genma Onimusha. I saw almost all Onimusha games but this.
This game is exclusive to Xbox and can be played in Xbox360 as backward compatible.
There is been a lot of misunderstanding on this game when I reached out IGDB to amend changes. I was told to reach out here via UserVoice, If I want this game to have its own category in twitch.
Although, I also want to stress and clarify that this game is not a port but a…

3D covers 3D view of game covers, being able to view the front, sides and back sides.
Could be nice when having many regions and scanned images of all sides of a box art.6 votesHey! For now we’re focusing on a single cover standard. Which we’ll then expand to other regions to be able to cover more types of users for this standard.
Once we have good coverage of those we may start looking at additional aspects such as sides, back of cover etc..
Thanks!

Game Wave as a Platform (Games are already there) IGDB actually already contains nearly every game for the Game Wave console, but the console itself is not listed as a platform (the games are listed without a platform). Adding the Game Wave as a platform would really lend to completeness for those games.
(Of note, another console with this issue is the Bandai RX-78. The games are there, but the platform is not.)

A GameJolt field in the “Websites” section of a game I’m not sure if this is the right category, it’s my first time posting here. Basically I believe there could be a field to add a game’s GameJolt page in the “Websites” section when you’re adding/editing information of a game. There’s an itch.io one, a Steam one, an Epic Games one, etc. There are so many games that are on GameJolt, even many famous ones, so I’ve always wanted IGDB to have a GameJolt field. it sucks having to use the “Official website” instead when thats not what it is, and when the game already has another page that would…

Add ELSPA to Game Ratings ELSPA was the rating system used in EU before the PEGI system replaced it.
Degrees of ratings can be found here:
https://www.nintendo.co.uk/Support/Parents/Age-Rating/The-ratings-system-for-older-games/ELSPA-rating/ELSPA-rating-854931.html5 votesHey! We have decided that it would be very interesting to have the ELSPA ratings on IGDB and we would like to add it in the near future. We we probably bundle a couple of new age ratings together and add it sometime next year.

Colorblind accessibility and Colourblind inaccessibility 6% of males and ~0.4% females have color blindness. A good number of games feature a colorblind mode (Forza 5 for instance). Many don't and have nearly unplayable sections as a result.
When I'm looking for a game, one of my greatest concerns is with color-coded information. If it exists, I need to see it in action, and if it's red-green or any other combination that is a problem, I need to know if I can change it. If I can't change it, I'll usually pass.Some examples:
RTSs sometimes use red and green icons on minimaps - literally any…5 votesHello!
This is a great suggestion thank you! Actually the timing couldn't be more ideal, as we are in fact investigating how we could tackle accessibility data in games, which would cover Colour Blindness of course.
This might be a long process (no ETA unfortunately), but something we are very interested in indeed :)
Thank you!

Add TI-84 Graphing Calculator as a platform The TI-84 Graphing calculator can play certain video games and some made exclusive for it. I don't see why it couldn't be on IGDB.

Add Apple's tvOS as a platform Many games available through the Apple Arcade subscription service are available on tvOS, aka Apple TV. Horizon Chase 2, for example. They run natively on tvOS devices, and tvOS is a different operating system than iOS, so it should meet all the definitions of a platform.

External links to the game’s pages on Metacritic, Grouvee, Backloggd, and similar services. Would it be possible to link Metacritic, Backloggd, Glitchwave, Grouvee, and IGN scores and web pages to the games?
