Cabinet images for MAME, too many missing...
« on: March 31, 2009, 05:26:13 pm »
I have 1517 cabinet photos in my cabinet folder. However, it seems that most of them belong to games from the eighties. Many games from the 90 and later lack cabinet photos. I have the official pack and I've also added and extra pack (sorry I don't remember the name). I thought that the fact that most of modern games lack a cabinet image in MAME means that they did not have a specific cabinet. However, today I've been taking a look at http://www.arcade-history.com and if I search for some of these games I can see that this website has cabinet pictures. Look for instance: Cadillacs and Dinosaurs, or 1941. Is there a way I can download all the cabinet photos from that website? Is there any other collection with all the pictures I need?

I think the previous official pack is no longer maintained.

The more recently (an regularly) updated pack is this:
