Here are the ones that I've come up with thus far:
Gamengai--I've spent so much time on this site--which features box-art scans and mini-reviews of all sorts of 8-bit, 16-bit and 32-bit games--over the years that it's gone from being silly to being a bit sad. Also sad: It doesn't feature any Famicom box-art scans and mini-reviews.
The PC Engine Software Bible--The name of this site says it all, really. If you're looking for information--including box-art images--on a PC Engine game, this is where you'll find it.
Segagaga Domain--A Sega-centric counterpart to The PC Engine Software Bible, Segagaga Domain caters to folks looking for box-art scans and other tidbits of info on Master System, Mega Drive, Saturn and Dreamcast titles.
Video Game Den--Much like Gamengai.com, this site features box-art scans and mini-reviews of tons of retro Japanese games. This one, though, focuses on just three systems: The Famicom, the PC Engine and the Super Famicom.
I don't suppose any of you can think of other such sites that should be added to this list?

I'm a frequent visitor to PCE Software Bible, it's a fantastic site. Good question if looking for non-Engine covers though! I usually just rely on Google so this is a very helpful post, thanks! :)
Yeah, I love the PCE Software Bible, Simon! Such a great site. Segagaga Domain and NinDB.net are similarly good sources of info for Sega and Nintendo games, BTW -- although NinDB doesn't have box-art scans, sadly.
I suppose this wasn't exactly what the asker wanted, but I've had a lot of luck with the Arcade Flyer Museum: http://flyers.arcade-museum.com/?page=home
Hey, Drew! I don't think that's what she was looking for, but *I* certainly am interested in it. Thank you! :)
boxart.tumblr don't update as often as I'd like it to. I'm too used to sporadic daily updates from the likes of Drew's tumblrs actually.
Yeah, Box Art definitely is a site that I check every so often -- as in, once every other week or so. Still, it's a nice place to go once in a while and check out some fun stuff.
