Is there a database of what images are needed?

[shaggy]

I was wondering this because I have some games I'm sure yo need images for but I don't want to sift through all my games and than check the site to see if we possibly need images or not.  Is there a list of what games need what images added?  It would be very helpful to me and I'm sure many other people wanting to add to the site.  Thanks.

That is an reverse image search Eddie made a long time ago when I asked a similar question. When you search with that link it will show you images needed.

For example if you search for Front, Back , Game and Manual scans for the 7800 only 3 games come up. Title Pro Wrestling,  Tank Command and Pete Rose. Those are the only images I couldn't scan. Although I finally got a Pete Rose box.

Just an FYI, that script still uses the old file-based system, so any of the games added in the past 6 months will not be on there.  The best way to find out is to just click the submit info link in the nav bar, then select add game images.  Bring up a list of games you want to check by filling out the search parameters, and it will show you all the games and if they have images or not.

Oh crap I didn't even think about that. Then again I am usually looking at systems that almost have a full set of scans already.

I knew I could do that but that's what I'm trying to avoid doing.  I don't really want to go through over 1,000 games by typing in over 1,000 titles to see if they have images.

Well if you want to use the original link, go ahead.  Just be aware that it is using an outdated version of the database.  It will only show games that are missing images.

You could do what I've been doing.
Gather up all the games for any one system, hit the submit link for images, pick that system and region, then go down the list and scan as you find games that need scans.  It'll take some time reguardless of the number of games, but it shows all the games that have scans as well as those that dont.
