That looks great. Wish my manual was in better condition for the cover. Someone else might want to scan their cover...
That will probably be the biggest challenge for manuals is finding ones with covers in great shape. A lot of the manuals I have listed as good conditon are in better condition than SMW so I can provide those.

I has 20 or so Super Mario World manuals so propbably one of them is in perfect condition to scan.
I'll check when I get home in 2 hours or so.

Didn't I send you Mortal Kombat 2?
-
You did send MK2 and Contra III as well but the covers have creases so they'd be more work to clean up in photoshop.
It's cool though, I still like having them.

What MK2 had creases? :o
Yeah it was bad one but it was my only copy (not sure do I even have one for myself, should have but not sure).
If I find my copies of those manuals I'll scan you the fronts so replacements can be done.
-
On the other hand, that Super Castlevania IV is so mint it hurts. I'm afraid to touch the thing! :o

Store it in minigrip bag.
I can mine which is even mintier (of course I kept the better ;)).
-
The ones you send me were excelent, I was bit ashamed to send you the 2 bad ones but I didn't have better ones.
-
Where I can find those manuals? I'll be super mega happy to print them since well... prices are insane :C
I saw that WIP, looks amazing! good job gentlemen, your are making the world a better place (:

I don't think we yet have any manuals ready.
Lots of good raws but nothing finished yet.

You shouldn't be at all, I was good with our trade.
I'm just happy TCP exists. Collecting and casing retro games has seriously become a favorite hobby. :)
Edit: I have some other manuals too that I didn't count. They're all mostly in fair condition.
There are probably more snes manuals in the world sitting then there are boxes. Between all the site's members we could make scans of almost every manual out there 8) Damn, that's a Pandora's box of work you opened up to clean up all those scans, but with ebay prices for some of the rarer manuals it would def be much appreciated!
Other manuals (most in fair condition):
Cool Spot
Cybernator
Hook
Mario Paint
Mickey and Minnie- The Great Circus Mystery
Plok
Super Scope
Super Tennis
Tetris Attack
Toy Story
-
I was thinking about starting on SNES manuals for the most common games first like Super Mario World, F-Zero and etc.
-
The Europe PAL manual of Super Castlevania IV looks the same in same ways to the North American manual but, the cover is different and it's not in Englsih.

Does anyone have the contra III manual scans?
-
Unfortunately, I don't have it anymore.
-
I did end up finding another scan of the Contra III snes manual.
-
When you *do* get ready to open that Pandora's box, I'm coming up on 20,000 pages of SNES manuals scanned at 600dpi (roughly 190GB of TIFFs). To say it is painfully slow to make them perfect is an understatement, but the finished ones make it all worthwhile. To appease the anti-pirate gods, I've slowly begun to resize them to 4K and 2K monitor resolutions for jpgs for frontend usage (of course saving the original and retouched 600dpi versions). Foolishly these weren't scanned RAW, but only my Epson DS-510 made it possible to think about converting this many manuals (~650 of the SNES's 724). I've got staples pulled on most of my Genesis manuals, and I know some people are going to enjoy me moving on to the rest of my manual archive....
-
I would be looking for the expensive ones. The ones you do not want to bleed money on it, but would really like to complete the set.
Example:
-Harvest Moon
-Mega man 7, X2, X3
-Soul Blazer
-
For the US SNES manual set, I've got 42 left to get that appear to have never been scanned, 16 that have existing (inferior) scans I'd like to replace, and 7 that I have European ones as placeholders. Luckily, I had a bunch of the semi-rare ones from 15 years ago. Unfortunately the cost of the remaining ones has probably stalled me on this set for now. Might have to sell some dupes before I crash their value ;)

There is a manual scans of Mega Man X on the form but, I know that not one you are looking for.

Which ones.
I have quite a few manuals.
I have US, PAL (in many different languages) and JAP ones that I can scan.

Now of course there are 63 unique to Europe, and it would be awesome to track those down as well (Populous 2? Cannon Fodder? Terranigma?) but I have limited resources- a.k.a. wife & kids. ;) I also have a bunch of european manuals I could scan, but they are on the backburner until I make more headway on a US release since of course I am an arrogant American and the world revolves around us English speakers. You know the drill :)
-
Arseen, which North American snes do you have available to scan? Do you have Zelda A link to the past?

Of course I have Link to the Past!
And yes I can scan it next day I have time (Tue maybe or Sat/Sun after that).
