I'm having a few problems with the Compare Games feature.

First, I'm having trouble putting in certain games. I'm trying to do Street Fighter 4, but there are lots of version for "Street Fighter", so the drop down list wont show this game, and as far as I know, doesn't scroll. If I put it in as "Street Fighter 4," it wont give me any data. This also happens if I put " - PS3" or " - X360" behind it. Maybe someone could add a scroll feature to the drop down box, or a way to search the game you want and slip it in. Or even a list of all the codes the system uses (the numbers after the system).

Also, another point of interest: is it possible to add a feature for "All systems" What I mean is if a game is between multiple systems, there should be an option to compine all system sales

try Street Fighter IV

I agree on your last point

I believe you have to put the code at the end of the Games Profile as well.
So Street Fighter IV [13112] for the PS3 version.

How do you get the codes?

You go to a Games Profile and check the number on the link. For example, here is the one for SF IV and the number you see is id=13112

You don't need to put the codes to find the game in the drop down box.... Street Fighter IV will work fine.... then when you find it in the drop down it will give you the code.

I have noticed that sometimes it will show you a sorted drop down, then certain moves of the mouse (perhaps out of the webpage window or something) will cause it to change back to list as if you haven't written anything in the box... but if you delete the last character and type it again it will bring it back.

yea, there was a problem with the compare games with games with "/" in the name (like Pokemon Gold / Silver) so the latest change was made for using the gameID from the database (not a fan myself but it fixes the other problem)

As for not finding the game, you need to type it exactly as it shows up in the game database. So, as TWRoO you would need a IV. Our database isn't smart enough to convert 4 to IV which gets to be a pain.

So if that solution fixed it, why can't I view Pokemon Heart Gold/Soul Silver now?

I thought the drop down menu was gone. For me, it appears on the graph itself. Just noticed that ,and I dunno why. O_o Another problem, and this is forum related, too many people are making poll topics. This topic is a poll. Create New Poll and Create New Thread should definitely be switched around. Create New Thread should be first.

well, then I'm wrong I told talonman that it didn't work for games with '/' in the name, so I figured this last change was to fix that.

however, you can type it in manually

@i like bacon

I requested that talonman force it so you can't create a poll unless you type in 2 options.
