So today marks the first day of the public beta for the collection tool. While it's not complete, it is in working form and we feel it is somewhat stabilized enough to allow people to get started.

Please read the Bug and Features threads is you want to actively participate it its future development, here:

Bugs:

I want to personally thank the guys that took the time to assist us in getting this thing ready for public beta testing:

I want to stress the "beta-ness" of this still. I'm going to be adding all kinds of crap in the coming days/weeks, so keep checking back.

Congrats on making it public, Dain. Let's hope we didn't miss anything major and that it won't explode!

Edit: Ooooh, sweet. Thanks for the new icon!

Nice! I'm still amazed by how quick you were in fixing bugs & adding extra features Dain! Time to remove the fake collections

By the way, do you think it's likely that the collections will be reset in the near future since it's still in beta?

I'm 99.99% sure I won't be purging the data, so have at it. If anything occurs, I'll do my best to repair it, and if not, back up the collections that are affected, repair it, then re-import them. So in other words, likely not.

under home, it's listed on the left under collections

or in that scroll down menu that appears on the left you can get to collections.

I figured since I had the urgent bugs squashed, and the list was empty, I may as well get it out there for people to mess with. That, and I'm tired of the ridicule! The pain!

Holy CRAP!!! It's awesome. Very easy and fast to add things and find games. I love it. I wish it had SNES though. I'm sure that'll come. Congrats Dain. Very sweet tool.

All geniuses are misunderstood and ridiculed, you are just cementing your place in NES History..
