Retro Game Collector for Positive User Reviews
✓ Best App for managing your game collectionI love this app and have been using it for many years, i use it when shopping to see if I already have a game or not and if the price is good it’s super handy. Gives a great overview of your collection in the palm of your hand.Version: 1.1.44
✓ Long Time PurchaserI already owned the previous apps and paid for them, but when I downloaded the new apps I had to repay for all of them and the old apps are no longer accessible. I feel as though if you had already purchased the previous apps that you shouldn’t have to repay for the same thing in a compact format or the other apps should still be available. Either would be fine. I still love the app and use it all the time. I just wish that this had been done better for people that use these apps..Version: 1.1.13
✓ Great!Awesome app. Only thing I would like to see added is ability to choose PAL/NTSC for all games instead of just PAL exclusives. Would help for those of us with a mix of both..Version: 1.1.96
✓ They are continually adding & refining the App!Great app. I was excited by the addition of the Atari Computer to the list. It gives me hope that ti99/a, coco and more will be added in the future..Version: 1.2.51
✓ Wonderful appThis is easily the best app I have used to track my collection. The only thing I would like to see is the ability to add digital games. Other than that, this app is superb!.Version: 1.2.26
✓ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️This app is absolutely amazing. I love its interface. My favorite part is that you can actually add custom games if they don’t have it in their library with your own custom images. The app overall still has some extensive work to do when it comes to graded games; I know this is still new to the contemporary market. Overall, the app has amazing features and interface usage; never glitches out and also has a great catalog for any game that you want to fin. This is better than pricecharting Game prices, but it is really competitive when it comes to pricing I’m not sure what their algorithm is when it comes to pricing but it does use eBay as a friendly user interface widget. Thank you so much for developing this..Version: 1.3.5
✓ Best game collection appDefinitely the best app if you have a game collection. Worth buying as there so much information and it keeps track of everything. Thanks for this indispensable tool 👍.Version: 1.2.4
✓ Best retro app….period!I have been using this app now for over 3 years and it is by far the best one out there for video game collecting. I love the constant price monitoring and this also helps with your insurance policy with your collections. In addition, every time I have messaged them with a question, they reply in minutes. Great team and I look forward to each update!.Version: 1.2.29
✓ Retro collectors dreamI found I kept buying games I already had also it’s difficult to know if you are paying too much for a game whilst hunting for bargains. This app sorts that out by keeping all of your collection easily viewable in one place. It also does a market search for you for games you want in your collection and gives an average price..Version: 1.1
✓ I love this.Finally an easy way to keep track of all the games we have for all our systems. I’m not sure how I lived so long without this. Covers are very nice. Being able to keep a wish list - plus see games that are the most rare / sell for the most to add to a wish list - is an added bonus. Suggestions - none are necessary, but could be great to have: - descriptions of each game, like from the original box. I bet people would gladly help you add that, seeing as it would be a lot of work at all. I’d totally help. - add peripherals - I’d love to add my sweet Donkey Konga bongos. I’d just love the world to know I have Donkey Konga bongos, actually..Version: 1.1.69
✓ Best retro game archive you can getI have been using this for years. Great addition to my collection!.Version: 1.2.31
✓ Best video game collecting appLoved this app since 2016 and the customer service is some of the best I’ve had. Highly recommend!.Version: 1.2.25
✓ FantasticThis is a collectors dream app..Version: 1.1.11
✓ This is the One to UseI tried several web and smartphone apps to house the retro inventory and this was the winner. It’s is easy to use and immediately accessible UI wise. It also has the largest library - I have some obscure titles and when I entered them in other apps they were not found and I was directed to go to the web and add them to open source lists myself. When I added this app, they were immediately found, artwork and all. The only ones missing were 8-bit computing titles but I was able to manually add them in the app. The ‘value’ it applied to each entry seemed spot on as well. The summary stats were a nice surprise. Overall, I highly recommend this app..Version: 1.2.56
✓ Great appEdit: after most recent update, app works fine. Great app overall, I like the responsiveness of the devs and I will definitely continue to use this app Freezes whenever I select a console. For some more info, it freezes on an already downloaded console. I'm on an iPad running iOS 10.Version: 1.1.59
✓ Updated to 4 starsI paid to unlock all systems. The app is very handy when out shopping. I have used it many times for a quick rarity and price check. I cannot go five stars because it uses its own sync system, not iCloud, does not offer box art sync, and requires a [free] web account for sync using a privacy policy with a few holes in it. But otherwise, provides great usefulness. Btw I contacted support regarding an issue and they were very responsive and supportive, and actually quickly released an update to the app to fix the issue..Version: 1.1.20
✓ Impressive and useful appAfter years of accidentally buying duplicates in error I stumbled on this app at wow, what a help it’s been. If you’re collecting, this is a must have. There’s a slight tilt to the US, but I’m in the UK and I love it..Version: 1.2.40
✓ Must have for retro junkiesBig time collector here. I was using stone and chisel as a means of keeping track of my collection before (spreadsheet). Gone are the days of buying duplicate games that I already have. Love the interface on this app. Graphs are awesome. Will newer systems eventually be added as well? I hope so, and hope to use this app forever..Version: 1.1.9
✓ App is great!I love this app. With a little money and effort on your part it is a convenient and organized way to have your entire game Collection in your pocket for reference. They have all the standard release games for each console they provide, and they have all the mainstream consoles from Atari to Wii..Version: 1.1
✓ Lost everything-updateI previously purchased the “red suite” on my iPhone 6s to keep track of my collection. Apparently the developer no longer supports these apps and i lost all of my data. Also, i tried to restore purchases to get the apps back through this one and it won’t let me. Shady company. I wouldn’t buy from them. ***update:developer helped me out and I got the apps in the new format. However, I did have to re-enter all of my games in the new app. Overall, it’s a good way to keep track of my collection..Version: 1.1.2
✓ Minor InconveniencesOverall, this is a fantastic app; extremely thorough, easy to use, and perfect for my collections. However, there are 2 minor issues I have. One issue is that the total value of my collection is a bit lower than it should be. Another minor issue is that I got the virtual boy and 32x for free (I know that sounds like a good thing but I don’t have any desire to collect for those consoles) and now I have an annoying sliver on the pie chart that says “others” and I would really like that to go away. Still, this app is amazing and I could only imagine the amount of work that went into it..Version: 1.0.6
✓ If you want to track your collection, get it now.The app is the best (If sometimes unintuitive) way to keep track of your video game collection. From what you spend, to what you sold, to what you are most interested in, this app has just about everything a collector could need if they are serious about retro gaming. While I had a little trouble at first and it was hard to log all the games I had already bought before I got the app, afterwards the sheer amount of information I realized I had at my fingertips made any complaint I had invalid..Version: 1.0.6
✓ App I never knew I needed until nowBest app to have on the go to keep track of my games collection. Its a great reminder to have while on the go searching for games and not have to worry about remembering which games to look out for vs what I already own. Would like to see Xbox 360/ps3 collections to keep track of in the near future.Version: 1.1
✓ Great app no matter your collection sizeAs a novice video game collector relative to others, I realized that I still needed a way to keep track of my inventory. I have a broad collection of about 350 games across 20 different retro systems and could not track it all easily. It is also great to view all the other game out there I wasn’t even aware of. When out shopping, I can easily pull up the app and view my collection. If I see something I want to buy, I have an idea of what the game is worth in the market. Additionally, the game art makes it so great to show friends and family. It is like I am taking them directly to my game shelves and showing off what I have. Lastly, the support I received when having issues connecting between devices was quick and friendly. They easily identified my issue and was able to resolve my problem. If you are looking for a great, fun way to monitor and show off your collection- it is definitely worth the investment! I’m looking forward to additional systems being added in the future. Thank you!.Version: 1.1.21
✓ Just needs the Japanese titles adding to be perfectNice and easy to use with great features.Version: 1.1.69
✓ Works great!For simply tracking games it’s perfect! More console support has been being added and the support seems to be good! The only thing that stopped me from giving it the fifth star is that it doesn’t (yet?) have a section for retro gaming accessories and the actual consoles themselves..Version: 1.1.17
✓ Few things missing.This app should include factory Sealed game values. There are quite a few items in my collection that are factory sealed. Also the value of game systems themselves should be added. I have complete in box systems from NES all the way up to ps1 (even gamegear , gb , gba are in there as well. These are big money values to peoples collections! Keep up the updates👍🏻.Version: 1.1.4
✓ Very excellent except for one thingWhen I go to update the app in the App Store the description for recent changes could be broken up by version instead of clumped together. It makes it difficult to know what is actually new..Version: 1.2.55
✓ AwesomeGreat and easy app to use. The only thing is when searching for a game you have to be very title specific. Every dot and dash must be included or the game will not show up. Also wish you could add in all the consoles and peripherals you have in your collection. Nonetheless, very easy app to use, especially when using for a quick pricing reference. Also when a new list becomes available for download, you can’t just simply download it. I bought the unlimited access, and when a new list came up for download, I had to restore the purchase, only then it would download. Great app!.Version: 1.1.92
✓ Great app for collectors! Missing only a few systems...I love this app so much. My only wants are an option for smaller thumbnails (to save space on my phone) and a few systems that I collect that are missing from the app. Atari 7800 and the Atari Lynx are a couple of my faves that I’d like to see in. Also the E-reader games under the GBA aren’t all listed. The positives are convenient interface, collection tracking, and the all in one approach. I love this app!.Version: 1.1.35
✓ Great but poor UIGreat app but UI needs a lot of work. Suggest asking community if there is a designer out there. Font relationships incorrect Colours incorrect Background fussy Whitespace incorrect Please fix as your app rocks..Version: 1.2.7
✓ Best I could findI did my usual research (watched a bunch of YouTube videos and read the app reviews) and tested the best apps side by side. This app and integrated website (cross platform) was the best and I after a few days using the PS3 folder (can download one for free) I went ahead and paid for the complete package. Also, well done to the developer for supporting the app with regular updates.Version: 1.2.14
✓ Great record keeperI’ve been using this app for a while now and I love it. I’m super stoked for the update that’ll bring in current gen systems so I can have my whole collection in one place. A couple things I would like to see improved on though. A cross system search/cross system consolidated wanted list. This would help a lot when shopping at game stores to not have to go back and forth constantly. Another thing that would be nice is a quick add to the wanted list. You can swipe the title left for a quick add for cart, manual, and box, maybe a swipe right for quick add to wishlist. Overall though, amazing app, keep it up!.Version: 1.1.62
✓ Best retro app!Love the app categories & how different regions are labeled. Incredibly user friendly & updated regularly. One thing I wish I didn’t have to pay for each individual console to download, but the app is top quality so it’s worth it..Version: 1.1.96
✓ Great for any collectorI use it for my n64 collection, it lets you add custom box art etc which is great as I collect pal games and the pics are for ntsc.Version: 1.1.21
✓ Amazing but a Little PricyI am a game collector and have multiple consoles. Therefore I would have to pay a descent bit a money for every console I have. I have a good many different consoles and would have to pay a good bit. Otherwise this app works really well and I love to use it! Just please make a change to the price..Version: 1.1.79
✓ THE Best Collecting AppI’ve been picking up the single console apps since the beginning. I was completely on board when they upgraded to making it one solo app and with every update they’ve given us. Every addition to the program is an improvement that I didn’t even know I needed. It’s not only the perfect way to keep your collection on hand when your checking if you have a title but it’s also a wonderful guide for sellers with the eBay and collector pricing. I thought I couldn’t sing this apps praises anymore when I reached out to the programmer and they responded right away and not only helped me but gave me free system upgrades. So not only is the product fantastic but the people behind are also..Version: 1.1.69
✓ Best App for Retro Collectors 🎮🙌🏼I’ve been collecting since early 90’s and this app is BY FAR the BEST app for collecting retro games. I can’t even begin to list all the features I love about this app because there are sooo many! This app is a MUST HAVE for any serious retro game collector..Version: 1.2.15
✓ Excellent serviceJ'ai été une utilisatrice de long terme avec eux. J'ai toujours eue de bon services lorsque quelque chose n'allait pas sur mon application. Ils sont très sympathiques. J'adore cette application complète, ils l'améliorent régulièrement !.Version: 1.2.12
✓ Could be betterI would really like to see the Metacritic’s Metascore and User Score for these games. Also, it’s a little painful adding games. The process is slow. Mainly due to the side bar. Animation is slow and the tiny, barely noticeable “done” button is annoying. Should take less steps to add games..Version: 1.1.60
✓ Great app. Needs more consolesGreat app with lots of info about the games and is a great way to keep track of your games however it needs more consoles, especially newer ones. The 360, PS4, Wii U, Xbox One and switch aren’t here at all and I would like to catalogue the games I own for those too..Version: 1.1.35
✓ Great appI’ve used it for years to keep track of my Sega genesis games. It’s the best on the market and well worth the money..Version: 1.3.21
✓ 5 starI thought this was an emulator.. I’m deleting but can I get money back? It’s totally pointless for me to see pictures when I got google.Version: 1.1.43
✓ Great for finding gamesThis app has helped me a bunch with finding games at a good price.Version: 1.2.14
✓ The Best AppYou get what you pay for and that’s a good thing. Easy interface, organized and informative. There are plenty of free collecting apps out there but there is no value. This is the best. Support is also top notch, you can tell this is a labor of love. Thank you!.Version: 1.2.31
✓ Great for new collectors!!This app is great for a quick reference that doesn’t require a data plan. It’s also great so you keep track of what you have and don’t buy the same game twice… unfortunately I did this at least 3 times because I’m an idiot..Version: 1.2.48
✓ No better option!I would not be able to manage my NES collection without this app! The ability to sort in so many ways makes it leaps and bounds above the rest. I tried several other free apps and they did not cut it. This app is not only a steal, but a must for any serious collector!.Version: 1.1.9
✓ Excellent for a CollectorI love this app! Bought each console collection prior to them making it a single app. Everything easily transferred to the new platform. With a collection around 1700+ games on available on the consoles shown (I have more games for other consoles not available), this makes sorting and keeping track of what I already have super easy. With cart/disk, manual, and case options I know at a glance what I have. I do find the pricing finicky, but I work the numbers through multiple sources anyways. I’ve emailed them with a few issues and missing games and they’ve always been very responsive. This is my first app review and have to give the original creator credit here..Version: 1.1.3
✓ Best game collecting app on the App StoreAlmost every console you can imagine, complete list of games released along with current values and rarity makes this the best video game collection app out there. If you have a collection, big or small, this is a must..Version: 1.3.12
✓ Love the app but needs more to track gamesI been using this app for maybe 4 years now hears about it from a collectors hunt video. Love everything about. I just wished you guys would have one for the Nintendo Switch. I have over 200 games but would love help to track it so i dont by extra games..Version: 1.1.45
✓ Great AppThis is a great app for keeping track of my game collections. To the people who thought this was to play games, please read things before you download. There is nothing wrong with the price for something that takes time to build and works so well..Version: 1.2.21
✓ Great design, but there are issues...Update: looks like the database is getting updated in a big way...they’ve added some of the earlier systems! That’s an extra star from me in the ratings. Add the Atari XE and Lynx, and the Odyssey 2 and they will have a 5 star app on their hands! Add the old cartridge based home computers, and I’ll find a way to give 6 stars! Pros: Overall, the design of the app is excellent. It is a great way to keep up the value of your collection. I like how you can keep track of boxes and manuals as well. Cons: The pie chart doesn’t fully breakdown percentage by system. If you add games that are not listed in a system, the values never come up. No home brew game support..Version: 1.1.36
✓ Awesome Customer Service!!This app is amazing for my video game collection. Very easy to use and the details for each system are spot on! I had a very minor issue and I emailed support and got a response in minutes and my issue was resolved! I would highly recommend this app!!.Version: 1.2.27
✓ Thank you this is a very helpful appI wanna be the first person to have all the Super Nintendo games in the world so this app is really helping me I recommend downloading this app if you wanna get into collecting or just to see what games there are but it wont play the games and you have to pay for some of them but it lets you pick one free.Version: 1.1.96
✓ Pretty good tool.Overall I like it, and support response is great. The interface is not intuitive in some areas but once you work it out, it works pretty well. Take the prices as a guide and hit the ebay button and check sold items once there to get a better picture. But it does ok for the most part. Makes it way easier when out game hunting to avoid doubling up. Easy to add and report missing items..Version: 1.3.3
✓ Loving it.An absolute necessary for any serious collector..Version: 1.1.24
✓ Fantastic AppThis is a fantastic app which allows you to keep track of your game collection across multiple platforms. It's easy to use.. it allows you to sort each set by name or value and allows you to log your owned games by cartridge/game, manual, and box/case. My understanding is that the app keeps up with the latest values of games. I highly recommend this app to all collectors of video games..Version: 1.1
✓ GreatGreat app for people trying to collect a full set of games for a system. My only issue is a couple games missing. Also would just be nice to have the greatest hits/ platinum hits/ nintendo selects versions but that would just be a nice update.Version: 1.1.11
✓ Whoops... okI did write a review saying that I wasn’t impressed that I didn’t have access to the apps I’ve previously bought, but they are all there available. Going to test it out some more now..Version: 1.1.70
✓ Everything you want in a collection app!I’ve been on board with this app since the early days and I don’t know where I would be without it! Gone are the days that I picked up a double of a game not remembering if I had it or not. I like that you can notate if you have the box, manual, and game itself separately. There’s a rarity meter, up to date pricing, customizable lists, room for notes, and you can even upload a picture of your own. They support 25 systems at the time of this review, and when I have dealt with them personally, they are friendly, quick, and cleared up my question or problem immediately. Definitely one of the top three gaming collection apps out there. Highly recommended!.Version: 1.1.14
✓ Love this app and the support!This is an amazing app for collectors! The options and tracking are great. I received support after having an issue with my Apple ID, the support team was completely understanding and helpful. They are always updating the app adding new features and more support for the current features..Version: 1.2.27
✓ Great for keeping trackGreat database of games. Easy to use and keep track of all of your games. Could use a refreshed UI that is a little more easy to use but works fine..Version: 1.1.92
✓ Great App!Love this app it’s very convenient for when I’m looking for video games and it’s great to keep track of my collection!.Version: 1.1.46
✓ Great app for a priceIf you’re serious about collecting, this app is for you. It only offers two fairly rare console collections from the start with options to purchase more catalogues. I’m hoping Wii U and Switch will be added soon. I’ll probably hold off buying until they are added..Version: 1.1.6
✓ Perfect for Game Collectors!I have been using this App for a good 5+ years. Tracks games released in NTSC and PAL regions and offers pricing and direct link to eBay listing to buy the game from if you are missing it. Price point per app is affordable for what it offers, and even has a bundle price for every app in the store which offers free updates to any system added in the future. Also if you have a game that’s missing on the list tweet at the developer and they will add it in the next update..Version: 1.1.51
✓ The Ultimate Gamers Dream AppThis app is the best collectors app out there. It nails every aspect you need in order to get the most out of your gaming collection. On top of that their customer support is amazing. I had an issue where the app was crashing and they fixed it within 2 days. This is the greatest app I have ever downloaded and paid for..Version: 1.1.24
✓ Great app!I have 3 different apps for tracking my games, and I have defaulted to just using this one. It’s simple to use, and is great for tracking all of your game collections. I started out with just needing something for my NES games, and after a while, I started using it for all of my video games and consoles. Don’t let any negative reviews dissuade you, they are mostly from people who either can’t read, or too dumb to understand that this is not an app for playing the games… I look forward to future updates, especially for Apple Watch. Highly recommend this app for collectors..Version: 1.2.56
✓ Fantastic App!I’ve been using this app for my collection the past couple years. Having built an app myself I appreciate the craftsmanship and simplicity. I have no doubt this app will be acquired in the future..Version: 1.3.14
✓ Easiest Collection TrackerAbsolutely love this app. I always recommend it when I meet new collectors. Easy to use and track my collection. I like that I can see the highlights of my collection and that I can swivel between systems seamlessly. The fact that my collection info is backed up is a major plus as well. Available online too. Absolutely recommend this app to anyone with a small or large collection..Version: 1.1.82
✓ Excellent app! It just needs some additional features:It needs other consoles. All of the obscure consoles out there like the Arcadia 2001, Fairchild Channel F, etc. it needs variations and greatest hits releases. It should also have a display of what what a 100% complete copy a should look like..Version: 1.1.39
✓ Very impressedLove this app just wish it had the Xbox one as a collection.Version: 1.1.79
✓ Overall happy (one gripe) UPDATEDI’ve found this app very useful for cataloging my games and overall would 100% recommend it. My only gripe is that they didn’t include the light pen (one of only 2 accessories released for the vectrex) in the vectrex accessories. I’ve got one and would like to be able to catalog it. Very minor thing but other than that no issues. Happy to see the new update adding tiger lcd games. Update: I’ve upped it to 5 stars seeing as the developers not only responded to my comment on the light pen but actually proceeded to add it to the catalog. Happy to finally be able to add it and would like to thank the developers for actually noticing my comment..Version: 1.3.2
✓ Retro Game CollectorRetro Game Collector is a video game database that is tailored to game enthusiasts who have large collections, are looking to acquire large collections or are interested in the retro market. The app allows users to analyze their game collection in a number of ways and acts as a shopping list for ones you still want to add to your collection. The app is easy to use with a full game catalog purchase menu or the ability to display content based on a particular gaming system from the main menu. When navigating a particular system menu it is easy to add data or view all the titles every released for that platform. The app gives you two unlocked system platforms from the start, the 32X and Virtual Boy, but users have to pay for the rest. It is smart for the developers to unlock these because the customers are more likely to pay for the others such as the NES, SNES, to be unlocked. I find the prices to unlock a platform or multiple platforms to be a bit too high especially when some other apps have databases you can view for free but you still get a lot of functionality here. Retro Game Collector is worth a download as a managing tool and reference point for games of the past..Version: 1.1
✓ GreatThis App is an amazing time saver. If you collect games like me you can often run into multiple copies of the same game unknowingly. Having the App on my phone when game shopping always makes my experience better. Anytime I’ve had an issue or wanted something added they have been quick to do so. I have recommended this App to many friends and will continue to do so. Bryan Kennedy.Version: 1.2.49
✓ Worth the InvestmentBy far the best collection tracker I’ve seen on the App Store. Took me a minute to get familiar with everything but once you get the hang of it I was able to add about 30 games within 20 minutes or so. I found this easier than scanning barcodes. Pretty cool how it shows you an estimate of the value along with the rarity of the games..Version: 1.2.53
😕 Retro Game Collector Negative Reviews
