The problem is due the GameFAQs database itself. For example "Hungry Dinosaurs" on SNES is not into the GameFAQs database. So when you make a search with this title the search engine return you the more closed result : http://www.gamefaqs.com/search/index.htm...orm=21&s=s
That's typically a problem with automatic scraping. When you make a search, the game database return you a list games and the launcher automatically return the first one. So if the game is not into the database, the searched game is not the first of the list, or if your query string do not correspond to the game you search, the database, and so the scraper will return you a wrong title name. I cannot do anything about that. The only thing you can do is to use another data scraper for those specific games. Sorry. This is the limit of automatic scraping.
