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.

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.

Incorrect game data for Rainy Season https://www.igdb.com/games/rainy-season
Can't receive updated data for this game through the API.
2 votesHeya! We’re currently doing large changes around the consistency of data between our site and API. These out of sync issues should be resolved very soon, and we will be going back to look at individual cases such as these games afterwards if there are still edge cases.
If you spot any more feel free to add them in the comments as it could be helpful.Thanks a lot and apologies for any inconvenience in the meantime!

3DTV support Not a fan personally, but it might be worth documenting with a simple Yes/No Checkbox.
Ex. Jak & Daxter Collection PS3, Resistance 3, Uncharted 3, etc.

Various Edits do not save when attempting to update a submission prior to Approval At times editors can realize an important bit of information was missed or forgotten after selecting Update Game. If the editor selects Edit again before their previous update has been approved. Several parts of the update appear to inconsistently display the recently entered data, while others do not. Many of these edits also will not change, even if re-edited prior to an Approval being confirmed by Admins.
Examples:
- Franchises do not save
- Removing Platforms from various Release Dates, Companies and Age Ratings do not save
- Removed Companies continue to display
- Previously added Multiplayer Modes do not…2 votes -
Age Rating Range for Bundles Something that comes up with Collections and Bundles are Age Rating Ranges, where you'll have a packages with multiple games than vary in ratings.
Ex. Jak & Daxter Collection

Add Clicker / Idle Game as a genre It's a distinct enough style of gameplay that it should be a genre rather than just a keyword.

Shmup (Shoot-'em-up) Genre This genre seems to me cross-categorized with many other genres. These types of games include Gradius, Raiden, 1942, Ikaruga, etc.

Listing of Extra Games Unlocked by In-game Achievements Titles contained within Collections and other Bundles can be listed as included by displaying links on the Game Page to each respective title's own page. However there is no current way to list titles unlocked as secrets from earning achievements or other various tasks in game.
Ex. Completing the Xbox release of House of the Dead III unlocks House of the Dead 2.

"Standalone Expansions" do not display links to the base game. Currently, if a title is stated to be an Expansion for another game, the Expansion appears in the original game's page. However, Standalone Expansions do not get the same connection, either in the base game or in their own page, even though the option to link them is in the Edit page of the Standalone Expansion.
Examples: MechWarrior 2 and Mercenaries, Uncharted 4 and Lost Legacy, Spider-Man PS4 and Miles Morales

Cannot remove Age Ratings from Edit Pages (Dunno if I've count UX/UI as API Bugs, but entering here.)
Currently you have the option to add additional Ratings to Edit Pages. However, this only adds PEGI automatically with no options for CERO or updated ESRBs for re-releases. Users have no means to remove these additions once created.

Show a toggable list of mods of the in the main game page. A list of mods could be shown as toggable to not mess with the layout of the page, since some games have an extensive mod library (I'm looking at you Super Mario World and Super Mario 64).

Live Streaming links for games It would be great if your database had a link to live stream channels for the game.
For example GTA V could point you to these links.

Not sure if there are other similar sites... But also if you add this please open it up to the API as well!
Thanks!

Automatically sync our libraries from Steam, GOG, Microsoft Store, Nintendo eShop, Playstation store, etc. Including subscriptions. To build up our personal libraries on IGDB, we wouldn't have to manually search for and add each game. We could simply connect our IGDB accounts to our accounts on all of those services, and IGDB would automatically populate our libraries with the games that exist in our libraries on each of those retailers. Steam, for example, has a 'sign in with Steam' function that IGDB could implement, and we could use it to connect our IGDB accounts to our Steam accounts. Other game retailers have similar functions; that's how GOG Galaxy 2.0's integrations work.
This way, in IGDB I'd…1 vote -

Platform_Version missing on platform-version-release-dates A user wanted to sort the release dates of platform versions by date and get the name of the version. But could not since platform-version-release-dates field platform_version is missing.
Example query:
https://api.igdb.com/v4/platformversionrelease_dates
fields *, platform_version.name; sort date desc; limit 500;Expected: A sorted list of platform version release dates and the name of the platform version name
Actual: A sorted list of platform version release dates without the platform version data.
