Submission of a new game

[xylamic]

I have multiple Nintendo Switch game covers I want to upload, but they are not currently listed (e.g. DOOM) for selection, so I can't upload. How do I add new games?

The upload function if for game covers that have been scanned, digitally cleaned to remove dust and scratches and moire, and resized to fit the official TCP dimensions. It's recommended that you upload your first couple covers to a site like mediafire and then share them here in the forums before submitting them to the main site so that you can get advice and constructive criticism. Once you're confident your cover is looking great, then you can upload it to the site by choosing the closest cover alphabetically. Each cover is carefully judged by the cover admins once it is submitted, and if it is approved, they will create the proper category and add it to the list. If it is rejected, you will not be notified which is why posting it to the forums first is so critical.

We have quality nazi's here due to better hardware and software allowing scans to be more detailed and less moire'y than a decade ago.

But to answer your question, just upload it under the closest game name you can.  An upload will never be rejected if it is under a different game name.  Those options are just to help the admins by giving them a loose understanding what is being uploaded.  As long as a Switch game is uploaded under the Switch option, all is good.

And to better understand tylerbgood's comment on you will not be notified (when a cover is rejected) which is why posting it to the forums first is so critical is that the Upload a Cover section has no way to "respond" on issues.  Upload the cover to a digital locker that keeps the filesize (MediaFire / Dropbox / etc) and share it (please have all your uploads in a single post here) on our forums.  We have a ton of members here that will let you know what needs to be fixed / if it looks good =)
