Ultimate Game Guide Reviews

Update fixes everything!

Hands down the best NES reference money can buy. Expert reviews, ratings, values, and high res cartridge/box art for every single game. My go-to source whenever I find an unfamiliar cartridge in the wild.

Impressive Update!

It’s so great to see all of the issues I had with the prior version resolved. Visually everything looks nicer as well. The one area that I would like to see expanded would be the accessories. There were so many unique controllers and odd devices. It would be good to see them all together for completeness.

New update for the win!

Really loving the new update! The bug fixes and added extras are fantastic!

Not synching

This app is very frustrating. I’ve been adding games for the last couple days and it’s not saving to the server. And there’s no way to save it locally to your phone. Not impressed for an app that costs this much.

App is broken & no longer works

Used to enjoy this app but as of late it’s a garbled mess. Text and pictures are all jumbled up. Same problem happens on both my iPhone SE (2020) running iOS 13.4.1 and on my iPad Air (2013) running iOS 12.4.6, so something changed in iOS to cause it to break. Pat needs to contact his tech support ASAP.

Disappointed yet hopefull

I am giving this app 1 star only because it crashes when I open it. I fully believe this app has five star potential and will keep it in my phone in hopes of the issues being sorted out, which would most likely change my review.

Awesome app

This is the perfect way to find and collect NES games and see if it's any good with reviews. It's a must app for NES junkies like myself.

A RETRO 'MUST HAVE'

Unlike many other 'NES' guide apps, this one has that 'extra something' that leaves you satisfied. The summarizing reviews of each game, will make you realize that your 'retro needs on the go' are in fact, found in these reviews, and are as thoroughly covered as if it were you in the past, diving into them. Add a mix of mature intellect, and you got yourself an addictive little program, 100% original in content. (If the shipping weren't so expensive, I'd even be inclined to buy the actual book...) LOVE THE C.U.Podcast Fellers'!

Could be great.

This app doesn't let you add games to the "wish list" making that section useless. It needs a collection overview and current estimates value of what you own. And as others said and the video game historian said. The reflections section should be included. Less than I expected after expecting the mobile version of the book.

Not bad, some missing features

Overall this is a nice little app for keeping track of your NES collection. I wish it had the Reflections section from the corresponding book, as that's been cited as the best part of the book and it would be nice to be able to read them. The included reviews are okay, but are more just descriptions of the games and offer little opinion. I'd love the ability to see the estimated value of my collection, of my wanted list (the interface for marking a game as "wanted" is a little wonky), and the rare, common, etc. games from my collection. There's also some missing controllers: I remember having some third party joysticks when I was a kid that aren't listed. Overall I like having the app and I'm looking forward to any upcoming Super NES and Gameboy versions.
