Hi, I'm new here and couldn't find any other threads about this. On the home website, it seems like it hasn't really been touched that much, but the forums seem to have tons more games. For an example, I was looking for Picross 3D on DS and found it on the forums, but I couldn't find it on the main website (I think that last DS game added over there was in 2014 ???). Maybe I'm missing something, but I'm curious as to whether or not I should only rely on the forum for finding cases.

TLDR: Boards
Longer answer:
Pick your poison.
Forums: More covers, but harder to find and quality is what it is.
Quality is usually from good to great to perfect, but can be utter shit.
Main site: Fewer covers (currently cannot be added) but organized and some what guaranteed very high quality (old ones were added before higher standards).

This is an ongoing issue that has been discussed countless times in one way or another. :)
TCP demands that only "perfect" covers are added to the main site. Although no one seems to know why or what "perfect" even means... The result is, that tons of covers are lost on the forums when they are deemed not good enough.
In addition TCP has been struggling with severe technical issues for almost two years now. Approval of new covers has stopped completely, so you cannot contribute to the site anymore.

Is their anyway we can do something about it? It's such an amazing resource.

I think we can manage well if we follow few simple rules.
1: DO NOT POST REQUESTS IN TOPICS MEANT FOR READY COVERS (or raw material topics). THESE REQUESTS WILL BE DELETED!!!
2: Post multiple requests in one topic instead of making new topic for each request. This prevents gluttering the boards.
3: Upload ready covers or raw materials to Mediafire or box.com. Most others compress or other ways screw materials.
4: Then post them to correct topic or create new clearly named topic (we can combine them to correct ones).
5: Always name the covers or raw materials clearly in the post so they can be found with search function.
