@AssChin79: Great! This looks promising. If you need any help don't care to ask.
Default artwork and better scrape assistance for single games are on my list for one of the next releases. But the list is long and time is short.
If you still have problems importing the games you can upload xbmcs log file to pastebin and post the link here. I will check what is going wrong.

My only problem is that when it scrapes it doesnt find everything, and those not found games dont get listed at all in the browser. It would be great to still list games it couldnt scrape info on and maybe display some default artwork for the game system. Then maybe have some options for an assisted scrape on each of those games. I've already tried the 3 different scrape methods to get the most info possible, but things still go missing. The roms I'm using come from Retro Legends 6666 in 1 ROM pack, and the scraping identifies less than half.You can import the games without description and artwork if you edit the default values in Add-on settings: described here.

However, the game I'm trying to import exists in both giantbomb and mobygames, yet the game is not imported with any data.I just tested to import "Touhou 06 - The Embodiment of the Scarlet Devil" and it works fine for me. Is your lnk file named like the game you are searching for? It may not work if its name is very different from the game name. I just named it "Touhou 06 - The Embodiment of the Scarlet Devil.lnk".
Ex. Touhou 06 - The Embodiment of the Scarlet Devil
I have mine setup to scrape thegamesdb, giantbomb, and mobygames. Out of the three, giantbomb has the most data and content for my touhou games, but RCB seems to be unable to scrape any data from any of the specified trackers. I can import them just fine if I unchecked the options to import games without descriptions and artwork, but that seems to defeat the purpose.

My games give me an error when trying to fullscreen since xbmc is already fullscreenThis feature is already implemented in XBMC: In System/Settings -> Video Output -> Use a fullscreen window rather than true fullscreen
