So I recently bought a Chinese pirate 5-1 of Rockman World 1-5 as a loose cart. I'd like it to have a home, so I thought, what better than the ill-fated and cancelled Mega Man Mania case for it, which was supposed to be Mega Man I-V on one cartridge colorized. I have this artwork I've found
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v173/NeoPlatinumZero/megamanmania.jpg)

I kind of envision the design with the pre-made cover on the front, with its logo on the spine (and no "Game Boy Advance" at the top...basically a pseudo retail cover) and then incorporate the wording of the poster at the top onto the top of the back of the box, below it with five pictures of the Mega Man I-V boxes (like how the poster has 4 random screenshots), below that the text from the poster, then your typical barcode, rating, Capcom copyright, Mega Man Anniversary logo, etc. I'd really appreciate it someone could draw this up for me.
Also, I have another bizarre request involving fabricated Famicom and NES boxes (two Famicom, one NES) on card stock that I'm willing to pay for, if anyone is up to the task. I'd like custom boxes made for Rockman 7 and Rockman 8 Famicom (and labels) and an NES box for Mega Man 10 (since it didn't get a press kit like Mega Man 9 did) and a custom label for it. PM me if interested :)

I could try if no one else will, but not for a few days. Heres a higher res scan

you would probably have better luck asking for someone to make a custom recreation using the Console MegaMan collection as a base. I realize the artwork is different but recreating the artwork they planned to use would be quite a handful.

The front (and spine) is already made by Capcom, so all I need is the back, and that shouldn't be too hard with all the templates out there. I just want a home for it, it doesn't have to be perfect :D
-
Anyone? Really easy job, the front cover is already made :P

Oh i didn't realize you edited your first post. Nice find on the front image, that will work great fro irvgotti :)

Everytime I think of Megaman Mania I cry a little inside. I was REALLY looking forward to that. The Super GameBoy can only colorize so much...
goddamnit capcom "lost" the source code.

It was there the first time, but I realized the site I got the image from didn't allow hotlinking so I had to host it myself

They're lazy assholes, what else can be said?

I modeled it after the anniversary covers from the other consoles.

that looks rather good, but couple things:
Forte said he got a Chinese cart of Rockman World 1-5. He didn't specify, but I would bet that he meant a original GameBoy cart, not a GBA cart. The spine and left side of the art should reflect the original DMG GameBoy, not GBA.
Even if IS for the GBA, the pirate would use the roms from the original games and thus wouldn't be in color. Therefore, the screenshots shouldn't be in color either.
-
Shit, I never even heard of this?!
I guess it shouldn't surprise me too much. Judging by the copyright date, I was in college which was a 5 year no-game bubble for me :-\

True, my Pirate is a GB cart, but the intended release was GBA, so that all is fine. The only thing I would ask to be changed is the spine. I'd like the GBA part at the top removed and the Capcom logo inserted below "Mega Man Mania". Basically, a retail GBA box cover. Other than that, very well done :)

I know but I wanted to see what a "Retail" version woulda looked like. Thus, no dl link ;)

Got my game, now I just need the case for it ;)

I'll make you an original gameboy cover for it if you scan in your GameGear MegaMan box in 600dpi and get me links to it. :D
This is a serious offer. Ill make it very similar to the other one but for the original gameboy in mind

I have a GG Megaman cover made from a mix of low quality scans, official art and a redrawn Megaman. When you get the scans here is something to work off of. https://www.box.com/s/0683ae5cb587a894f570

No worries :) I scanned them for free anyhow, he doesn't have to make me anything (except maybe some Rockman 1-6 covers ;))
