Does anyone know a good way to get the box art for games? I know there are programs that can do it for DVDs and CDs and I was wondering if there was a similar program for games. If manually finding them is the only option, what places would you recommend?

I'm new to that forum, so just tell me if I write complete bulls**t that everyone knows for years... ;)

One site I really like (and that has some boxshot collections too):
http://www.screenshotarchive.com

If you find a decent piece of software, I'm also interested in finding this...
Some attempts:
http://www.getmygames.com
nice ideas, nice scripts that search sites, but quite buggy.
If you get a stable version it's worth the 10 paypal bucks.

http://www.collectorz.com/game
Way too expensive but has IMHO a very nice GUI and does data scraping in amazon and in the amazing www.allgame.com site...
Unfortunately not very emulator-oriented!
Has a good no-bullshit 30 days trial version.

Cheers,

Daniel
