Startup Idea: Startup Idea for Arcade Collection Database App
The biggest issue I have as an arcade collector, is that it's very hard to find an overall data base. I have used apps for NES and SNES that helped me maintain my collection by allowing me to update, if I have the game, version of the game, quality of the sticker, quality of the case, whether it was complete or just cart, etc. The app would also allow you to take pictures of the pieces in your collection. Lastly, it would allow you to connect to multiple forms (ebay, kijiji, craigslist) to search for the games or to use as a price guide. It was only available on iOS so I am unable to find the name for your reference but the creator put out a bunch for different systems at 4$ a piece.
If someone were to create the same thing for arcades, I would pay money for that. It should include the same features as above but would need to include things like, was it a conversion or dedicated cabinet, wiring type, internals, jamma or not, any known repos or counterfeits. As this would be a much more complicated collection keeper, I would be willing to pay around 10$ for it.
