The site definitely has a lot of potential. My suggestions:

1. Simplify the submission process. People are not going to want to catalog their collections when they see 25 inputs for a single item. I realize only some are required but title, game, category, photo, description; that's all that you really need.

2. Profiles/collection feature. Collectors like showing off their collections and looking at the collections of others. Perhaps this site is aimed strictly at the utility of an archive, but I think it needs a community to be sustained. There needs to be connections between the users and the collectibles:
-Profile/username tied to your contributions
-Collection feature. Obvious one - users can add items from the catalog to a collection (can have multiple), wishlist, for sale list, etc. on their profile.
-Users can upload photos of their general collection to their profile.
-Items have an "Owned by: " list
-Maybe even have a dedicated section for collections? I'm just picturing how sweet it would be to flip through a list of "Mosavon's GTA Collection", "Liuken's Uncharted Collection", "Lemur's Steelbook Collection", etc.

These are just a few ideas off the top of my head but you see what I'm getting at.

3. Value estimation. One of the main reasons I went on sites like Diesnake (MGS collectible database) back in the day was to check out the estimated value of items. The "What's the value of...?" thread on this forum is of the most popular. I think the site would really increase its utility by providing this information, though I'm not sure of the best way to implement it given value fluctuation, bias, etc.

4. More categories. There is no general promotional category in the submission form but it does appear in the catalog so I assume it will be added. Off the top of my head, I would consider adding categories for press kits, cases (steelbooks, metalpaks, etc.), collectible/limited physical copies of games (these are becoming really popular right now), and art prints/posters.
