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).

Not receiving screenshots via webhook I haven't received any new screenshots since Nov 16th via webhook. I am still receiving other models such as games, covers, etc. so I'm guessing this might be specific to the screenshot endpoint.
I also don't believe this is on my side since I refresh my webhooks daily and have verified the setup.

Remastered Games should not be included as the original Game For example, Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered is considered just a version of the original so I can not put that I am streaming it. This causes problems because Spiderman Remastered is made for a completely different platform which can completely change viewers interests in watching or not.
1 voteHey! Good news: yes totally. in fact we’re already at work on introducing new game types so that we can better categorise remasters, remakes, ports etc..
Stay tuned!

DJMAX RESPECT V should be able to be selected as different game from DJMAX RESPECT in IGDB, djmax respect V is listed as alternative version of djmax respect. I think this the reason why I can't select djmax respect V as a game for my stream.
In fact, djmax respect V is porting version of djmax respect, but there are lot of differences between them and those games not share the pool of viewers.
Therefore, I think djmax respect V should be able to be selected as game for stream.
1 voteHey! we’re actually working on introducing new game types to better categorise games right now, including Ports!
To give extra clarification though, new categorisation does not necessarily imply it will show on Twitch, as this is up to Twitch itself to decide what it ingests.
But as soon as we have those new types the game itself can be updated as a Port!

Rated List Pagination is Broken Pages 1, 2, and 3 of rated games, sorted by rating, does not show all of the games. Games of the same rating seem to be mixed up, and not using a second sorting column like game name to determine which should show on subsequent pages. This may be broken in the API as well, but I have not confirmed.

A better process for notifying Twitch/IGDB about missing games Both Castlevania for the N64 and Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness are missing from the Categories menu of Twitch, but they are not missing from IGDB's site. I have spent the better part of two hours trying to figure out how to inform someone, ANYONE, of this (admittedly small) oversight and ended up here.
There has to be a better way to inform Twitch/IGDB of problems of this nature than to wander aimlessly around the Twitch help section, then give up and use the feedback forum, hoping that a relatively minor fix will be noticed by someone with the power and…

Hey there!
For all things IGDB it is best to come to us directly rather than via Twitch help. Our preferred way is via Discord :)
Discord: discord.gg/igdb
Contact form: https://www.igdb.com/feedbacks/new
Twitter: https://twitter.com/IGDBcomRegarding the Twitch categories, while IGDB provides the data but what ends up there is decided by Twitch itself. In the case of Castlevania it is due to the fact Twitch is not ingesting Versions of games at this time. We are however working on expanding the data set so that they can become categories. Stay tuned!

3D covers 3D view of game covers, being able to view the front, sides and back sides.

Adding GameFAQ's My idea is simple; adding GameFAQ pages to the possible website additions on the website. This will allow people easy access to both answers to questions they might have regarding the game as well as a walkthrough if needed.

Game image catalog naming convention as altenative titles Some of the games don't get results through the API because the names used by ROM (and other game images) documenting organizations have some rules that don't apply to IGDB's main title rule.
Some of them:
If the title starts with an article, it goes to the end of the title. (Legend of Zelda, The)
If there is a non-standard character, like slashes, quotes, etc, they are removed.
The Japanese naming scheme uses double vowels instead of singles ones.It would be good to have as an alternative title option something like: "Alternative title - No-Intro Naming Convention".
I'm pretty…

BUG: Adding fresh comment in custom list doesn't display right away When adding a comment to a game in a custom list – and that's all you do when editing the list – and then save the list, the comment will not be displayed until the list gets a game added/removed.
EDIT: Needs more testing to pinpoint if it is consistent or just a cache coincidence.

Game deal data? hi, thank you for the amazing database.
Im new to igdb and I don't know if this suggestion has been asked before but ...
Have you guys ever considered adding store deal to this database?1 vote -
No longer availabe Games / DLCs It would be great to mark games or DLCs/Expansions that are no longer available for purchase, because they have been taken down or the stores selling them have been closed.
In the past™ games were sold on discs - even nowadays, if you can find them, you can play them. Modern games and expansions are often sold online only. If the shops are closing, the possibility to acquire these games is gone, making it impossible for game collectors to legally buy these games. It would be nice to mark games and/or expansions which are impacted by this.1 vote -

Game list missing from some company pages On a number of company pages, the game list does not appear, and games associated with the company can only be viewed within the timeline element (which does not display games without a release date, and is slow to reflect updates). This issue seems prevalent among company pages with relatively few games, although that might not be the direct cause.
