I believe this has been fixed. I'm calling the endpoint with both multiple platform filters like "platform:146|94|145|139|117|157|96|121|123", but also with a single platform "platform:146" without any issues.
@davidfox1983: The app caches content for quite some time, and have kept network calls to the minimum. However if the app gets a lot of users, and they lookup different wiki items not in the cache then I will be hit by the same rate limitter. I don't understand why Apple rejected your app, because creating an auth mechanism should be fine? What was their reasoning? My plan is to introduce simple authentication and let users add their API key. The app can be used without, but a warning will be shown if rate limit is reached, and the users are incentified to login.
@laethe: Thanks! yeah I really want to have an Android version as well, but I'm a lone wolf on this one and unfortunately don't own a device to test on.
I have been working on a new version of my app Pixeldb, and the time has come for others to play around with it. The app features the awesome wiki data and ability to quick add games to (played, favourite and want to play lists). All help and feedback is much appreciated, so let me know if you want a build of the app - it is iPhone only for now.
You can use the API for your app but for non-commercial use only. Below is from their terms of use that you can find here: http://www.giantbomb.com/api/
You can make some great things with our API, but unfortunately money isn't one of them. The API is strictly for non-commercial use only. Commercial use will result in your API key being revoked.
@hugh_jazz: Yeah, I really want to play Wind Waker as it looks fantastic but settled on Ocarina of Time 3D as first Zelda experience. I guess the Wii U will come sooner rather than later :-)
I was in the same "problem" as you. I haven't owned a Nintendo console since the N64 and haven't played a Zelda or completed a Mario game. I choose the New 3DS, mainly because it is a handheld and therefore I have more opportunities to play, but also because it seems like the best Zelda games can be played there.
