📋 Summary
Add support for storing a MobyGames ID and link on LaunchBox Games Database entries.
❗ Problem
Currently, LaunchBox database entries do not include a direct reference to MobyGames.
This means:
Users cannot quickly jump from a LaunchBox entry to its MobyGames page
There is no consistent way to map entries between the two databases
Helpful external reference data is harder to verify or cross-check
For users who rely on both databases, this creates unnecessary friction.
💡 Proposal
Add a dedicated MobyGames ID or URL field to Games Database entries:
Store the MobyGames ID for each game
Display a clickable MobyGames link where appropriate
Allow this field to be used as a reference point for moderation and data verification
📦 Benefits
Makes it easier to cross-reference LaunchBox entries with MobyGames
Improves research and verification when editing database entries
Adds a useful external reference for users and moderators
💡 Notes
Should be optional and only used when a matching MobyGames entry exists
Could be hidden from normal users if primarily intended as reference data
