How do you keep track of your CE's? - Page 3

I don't yet keep track of my editions, although I always attempt to, but I always do a bit then get distracted

...

Think I may make a file soon xx

As of now, I don't since I still don't need to.

I should but I don't, it's something I should do, never thought about using Access but that could work nicely and allow me to upload data to the website easier.

It would be nice if there were some kind of smartphone app similar to a barcode scanner, but where we can scan our game barcodes with our smartphones and it automatically gets added to an online database, or stored on your handset ready for uploading when you're ready (Ie, when you get home and connect to a PC or are in range of a WiFi network)

I actually love this idea. I would totally use an app like this to keep track of my games if it were available.

Otherwise I just keep all my games in my playfire account, it doesn't really keep game versions in there though, but I don't have that many CEs that I forget what I have when I see a game listed in there.

I use excel for the most part

For site listing, I use backloggery.com

I actually wrote an app that did EXACTLY that for my DVD collection:

I could easily implement barcode scanning here on CE.o unfortunately for it to work it would require that I know the bar codes of every edition in the database.

I do have the bulk of the NTSC barcodes entered but no one ever gives me that info when reporting games from other regions

Hi Twisted, between us this could be achieved relatively easily I think, most of us have the data I'm sure :-P
