I just finished entering my entire collection, and it took up 12 pages to do it! And that's only all my games! I haven't even started listing my systems yet!

So how many pages does your collection take up? Is it all just your games?

What about your wishlist? Is it longer or shorter than your collection list is?

My wishlist doesn't even take up a whole page, because I'm only listing my current wishlist. I only want to list games that I'm actively seeking right now.

My collection is 10 pages, and my wishlist is 2. It would be much bigger if I listed more of the Super Famicom games I wanted, but that would be just about all of them, so I only have my top priorities listed.

Well if I could put all my collection in it would probably be about 6 or 7 pages. Maybe, I hope. But as nearly all my games are PAL many arn't in the rarity guide. I'm not complaining though, a large spreadsheet is doing me fine at the min.
My wish list though, that'll be huge, will be working on that tonight. Fun fun fun :D

My collection list is 5 pages. I included some "non-cartridge items", but only if they were interesting--that is, stuff other than standard controllers, etc.

My wanted list is less than a page, as is my tradelist.

14....I think I got everything, but I noticed half my sega list appeared in want the other day so I hope nothing else messed up. I didn't bother adding systems or anything like that, seems pointless to me, but whatever.

Well mine went up to 13 pages after I added all my Game Genies and Game Sharks and similar interesting stuff like that, but I agree with hellvin, adding systems and controllers and whatnot seems pretty pointless. I may add all my systems, buit certainly not controllers. If you have all the games, it's a given that you have all the systems, and if you have all the systems, it's a given that you have controllers for it, so not much point in listing stuff like that with all your games. Maybe if those things were kept in a seperate section, but I don't want them cluttering up my list of all my games, that's stupid.

I also ran across several non-game items that I had overlooked, so I added all of those as well, and found out that there isn't much consistency to them. Sometimes things like memory carts are listed as non-game items and other times they're listed as non-cartridge items. Non-game items makes more sense to me, since they are memory CARTS, and ditto for game enhancers. Some other odd things too, like Wacky Worlds and Fun N Games are in the Genesis games list, but Art Alive is in the Genesis non-games list. My Paint for the SegaCD is listed as a non-game, but Fun N Games for the 3DO is listed as a game. I can see the reason for it, but it would make alot more sense if all art programs were kept in one list or the other, not split up depending on the program. Mario Paint is listed as a game too, but I don't consider it to be anymore of a game than an art program, just because it includes Fly Swatter.

Overall, I do LOVE the new lists though. I've been wanting to make a list of all of my games for a long time, and being able to share it with everyone else here is even better. At least everyone can see a full list of what I have now, until I finally get my Room of Doom looking presentable enough for pictures. Plus, it will help me alot to keep track of what I have and what I wanna get! Now I can see it all at a glance, instead of having to dig through all my boxes!

I do need to dig through all my boxes and verify that none of my carts were omitted because they aren't in the database yet though. I've only found one that isn't listed so far, but there may be others. So that's gonna be a pain, but I'll get it done as soon as possible. Then I can just make my own database from all my lists here, if I want to. So this is really quite a feat for this site indeed, and my hat is off to everyone who helped make it happen!

Well, I've left off the standard controllers for the most part, but I don't see why you'd be averse to including an R5 Wico Command Control joystick (for Atari 5200) or an R6 Quikshot Roller Controller (for NES). I think that cool or oddball peripherals are as much a part of your collection as an R6 Silent Bomber.

Currently, I have five pages... but it doesn't include everything yet. I can't find my Neo Geo Pocket carts right now and I can't remember what I have offhand, and it doesn't have any system that I own but don't really actively collect for save the Game Boy Advance. After I get in Playstation, SNES, NES, 3DO, Lynx, GameBoy and 2600, I expect I'll have around five pages.

And I will say it would also be longer if it counted variations of things. I have tons of Jaguar variations and am working on a complete PAL set of Dreamcast stuff now. Those probably won't make it in ;)

True, but I don't have anything like that anymore. I just sold my Atari 5200 collection and two Wico Command Control sticks with keypads last year. So everything that I have left I only have the standard controllers for them, and I also have the arcade sticks for most of them. I'm not adverse to listing it all, I just don't want it all listed in with all my games. Too much clutter for me.

I'm up to 5 pages, but I'm to lazy to put all my games in there. I'll do like one system a day.
