Hey guys. Thought I'd share this website that Jon from SWFLGamers/azalin19751975 on YouTube told me about. It's VGCollect.com. It is a place where you can keep track of your collection online and share it with other people, either for showing off what you have or possibly to set up trades. I currently have my collection up, although it isn't fully complete. I still have some games to add to it, but I definitely have the majority of what I own listed. www.vgcollect.com/rpgtourguideI definitely think this is useful for doing trades online, so people can avoid sending you duplicates and so you can see what other people have to offer. Take a look and let me know if any of you decide to set one up for yourselves. I'd be interested to see other people's collections.

It looks simple and basic, but indepth. How deep is their catalogue? Have you run into problems in trying to find games that they don't have "listed"? I've had that problem with other sites. I'll check it out as for Season3 of my YouTube channel I want to "archive" my games so I can number them off when I pick them up!

*BUMP!!!* by the way, i just signed on to VGCollect and I like it. It's under construction but it's been great so far! Best of all, you can find games and export your collection on Spreadsheets! I like the fact it's community fan run database owned BY THE PEOPLE (I love that kinda thing!) Check me out vgcollect.com/feed/thriftdwellernateYou can see my collection here, it's still being made, it's been 2 days and only finished 2 consoles, N64 and Sega Geneisis. I'll be finishing this off before the SEASON 3 of my YouTube Thirftdweller channel.

I haven't added to it for a good year or two. I use my collector apps on my smart phone.

It's cool that you signed up, Nate. I "followed" you on my profile. I haven't run into any problems personally with a game not being in their database, but I know they have the option to add to the database with games that aren't already included. I also have a simple collection app on my phone, essentially just to keep a list of what I have on me as I go, so I can make sure whether or not I have certain games.

I'll have to give this a look. I currently use gamefaqs which is fine for the most part but not always the most convenient when I'm out on the run.
Has anyone found a program that's good for tracking Gaming Magazine collections? Mainly looking for something that I could make lists with ease. I keep a paper list for Nintendo Powers in my wallet, Official US Playstation Magazine is on the same list but when it comes to everything else I'm getting to the point where I can't remember what I have for EGM, Gamepro etc.

Yah, i'm finding that too... I think you can add games, but I haven't done that yet. i like the fact it is fan run website, but that could also backfire if some troll person adds a wrong game for Ships and Giggles. =D

I think I tried that one out a while back. I maybe thinking of a different like site but I found it kind of hard to navigate and update/maintain. I just go simple and excel spreadsheet =D
