Duplicating games to add all possible platforms

Hi,

I've been adding quite a lot of PC games recently because only the console variants are in the DB.

Would be so much easier if we were able to duplicate games and just change the console it's on.

Thanks for the help guys! So happy to contribute.

EDIT: Post mocking the fact that I got no reactions gets approved. What a joke :lol:

I think this would be a good idea.

Game desciptions are always the same and would help from having to copy paste or retype everything.

Wouldn't it not much better to define multiple platforms for a game instead of duplicating it?

Yes, it would be better to add console tags instead of selecting the one console it's available on.

This would be very helpful. Especially for cases like MegaDrive/Genesis.

It is true that it would be preferable to include console tags rather than selecting the single console on which it is playable.

It would be preferable to add console identifiers instead of selecting the available console.
