Suggestion: Ability to filter on licensed/region games?

Post by eymas »

Hi there!

I've been tinkering with the API lately and have enjoyed its ease of use, props for the hard work! Though I do need to apologise for a couple mishaps on making too many requests in a row in the past. Hopefully it hasn't caused any hassle!

As I'm writing an application that "spins a roulette" through all games, one thing that appeared to me in the NES platform game list is that a number of unlicensed/unknown games appeared. It got me to think of a feature request for the upcoming v2 API;

Would it be possible to introduce a filter for getPlatformGames that would return the results for a certain region* and/or licensed games only?
* Example: solely titles that have been released as NTSC-US

It'd help to save time as I currently filter the "master list" by hand ;)

Hi,

we're looking into the possibility of introducing filters for dev, publishers, genres etc, based on how thats achieved we could look into this request,
however, am I to understand you have a list of licensed games which we will be able to upload to the database?
