i am looking for a database of video games, or a way to scrape to build one

initially, i need:

  • title
  • genre
  • platform (aiming for DS for starters)
  • release date
  • region
  • boxart is a nice-to-have i can figure out how to get separately

i have looked at: gametdb, thegamesdb, launchbox, rawg. for different reasons (the biggest one being erroneous data) they don't work for me. the most accurate data come from sources i can't easily scrape (like mobygames)

suggestions and boosts welcome

@Radgryd huh, wonder why that didn't come up in my searches. it might work

@mavica_again It's what Twitch uses and it has tools for devs to create their own profile and add/edit their games. 👀
