API Key Request
First I'd like to say thank you to admin.
I'm a freelance python developer, i need to collect data, just like scrape/grab detail of my retro game collection (emulationstation frontend).
Using some opensource scrapper from github or some resource from swagger on https://api.thegamesdb.net/.
Of course not for sale, just for my hobbies only. Very much thanksfull and glad if api key request approved.

Re: API Key Request

- https://github.com/picandocodigo/gamesdb
- https://pypi.org/project/gamesdb/(deprecated newer version need API key)
