Topic: Game Collection - or?

I have noticed when reading comments to games review, that a noticeable number of profiles, comment as if the have the title/owns the title, but when I go to their profiles, the have a lot of games in their collection, but not necessarily the titel they have commented on.

I'm courious here. Are there different patternes in how we announcing our game collection. I have every mention every switch game I have in my gamecollection. Am I to conservative in My view on, wich game should be mentioned?

@Gimli Basically, the Games page on your profile is the only place to showcase games you have.

You can put game titles in your signature. But there's a 200 or 300 character limit.

In addition to what @WoomyNNYes said, I'd like to also point out on Nintendo Life, if you rate a game, it adds it to your profile as in you have it. Good example, the rating classic Sonic games article. I rated Sonic CD, yet I don't own a Sega CD system, but still played the game on PC and GameCube.

I haven't done my collection so my profile has been mostly ratings from these kind of "voted by you" articles.

@WoomyNNYes

Try Looking on profile SKKTR - he/she has nearly 800 titles in her game-collection (or is it SKTTR?)

I always forget this is a thing, lol.

If I cared about this sorta thing, I'd just use Backloggery, I think.

@Sunsy

Ok I didn't know that. Basically it should rather State it as; Tried it.

@Ralizah I remember it's a thing, never cared to post my collection online. I feel it would take too long to list all the games I've gotten over the years.

@Gimli Or maybe rated games, since that's how the list adds them to the "Have" list.

@Sunsy
Good point. Figure a lot of players try games at friends/family. So It's a little optimistic, that all rated game is owned by the profile.

I Tried to add the Games i own, but the Problem is that many aren't even "registered?" in the Database here so, like, more then 50% of my Games (mostly "Retro" stuff) i can't add because they are Missing or need "Approval"

Seems to be a thing that everything before the Wii is filled with holes (or everything that was Europe Exclusive, because these happened at some point)

Rating a game adds it to your collection.
