I found this website last week, and I've used it everyday since then. I noticed that they have a ton of games missing, but the site hasn't been updated since 2014. Is no one working on it anymore? Even one of the updates at the top is titled "Site dying from neglect!" and that was posted in 2013.

This is the site in question, just in case anyone was wondering:

http://bootgod.dyndns.org:7777/

I have no idea if it's being updated any more, but I am curious as to what you use it for every day.  I've verified a couple of PCBs, but don't go there that often.

I use it to know the catalog IDs of games and I also use it to look at games that I've never heard of. The reason I've been using it all week is because I'm making a detailed catalog of all my carts and I'm using it for reference.

One of the posts on the front page talks about how bootgod doesn't have much time for it anymore, but that post was made in 2012.

Keep in mind there is a "missing" page, which has games that aren't in there yet: http://bootgod.dyndns.org:7777/missing.php

Also keep in mind that it's cart-only, so no FDS games will be on there.

hm I uploaded a Yie Ar Kung Fu PCB that is no in the list (with glob-tops)
may be month ago, but there is no  result on the site :(

How do you upload it? I thought you had to contact bootgod.

I just registered in the site and there was an option to upload pictures of  the PCBs labels and info for the games :)

I see, maybe you should contact him as well anyway. He doesn't seem to have updated in a long while.

He's probably just busy.  I've PM'd him on Nintendo Age before and he's always gotten back to me within a few days.
