libretro-thumbnails stops at the retro consoles, leaving the ten Xbox 360
titles blank. English Wikipedia carries a cover on essentially every
notable game article and needs no account, so it now runs as a second pass
for anything libretro cannot match.
Correcting an earlier claim in this repo: libretro does publish a
"Microsoft - Xbox 360" set. I had reported it as absent after checking only
my own hardcoded system map, not the actual catalogue of 123 sets. The set
turns out to hold about a dozen entries, none of them ours, so the
conclusion held but the reason given was wrong. It is now mapped and
searched anyway, in case it fills out later.
The cover filename is read from the article's infobox rather than inferred
from file names: filtering names for "box" also matches
"Xbox-360-Pro-wController.png". Two details that cost a round each:
* the infobox writes the field both bare ("Halo 3 final boxshot.JPG") and
prefixed ("File:Lost-Planet-New.jpg"), so any prefix is stripped before
exactly one is added back
* the API returns 429 under an unthrottled loop, so calls are spaced one
second apart, retried with a longer backoff, and cached to disk
Coverage is now 105/105 — 93 from libretro, 12 from Wikipedia.
Two rows took art of the right game but the wrong platform, because their
system field looks wrong in the source data: a Game Boy "Donkey Kong
Country 2" and a DS "Donkey Kong Country Returns". Noted in the README
rather than silently corrected.
