Great app! Only suggestion is that I’d like to be able to zoom into the game boxes and magazine adds to better see the detail and read them better

Please add these features and I will change my review to 5 stars.1. Ability to zoom in to read front and back of boxes2. More SNES Game Genie codes3. More Systems. Eg. Sega Genesis, Gameboy, N64, Turbografx 16, Neo-Geo, Sega Master System, etc.4. A Video preview of each game (if possible?) other than just images5. Add JPN 🇯🇵 games6. Instruction Manuals? (Probably not likely due to size constraints but it would be nice to have. If worst comes to worst you could always put all of it in a text document?)

More systems are on the way — Game Boy is up next!Video previews are a great suggestion — we’ve added that to our roadmap.Japanese titles are coming too, under the Famicom and Super Famicom systems.While full manual scans aren’t permitted, we’re recreating helpful materials like play controls and item guides.Thanks again for your support!
