Title: An Odd Donkey Kong Jr. for Commodore 64 request!!!!
Post by: Madducky on October 09, 2015, 03:14:53 PM

My fiancé LOVES DK and DK jr. especially. And I want to get her a special one-of-a kind gift!!

I found someone on eBay that has burned the new fan made version of Donkey Kong Jr. into a custom cartridge with a color cycling LED no less!

I then went to jim brain,
http://store.go4retro.com/c64-sx64-c128-c128d-cartridge-enclosure/
And choose a clear C-64 cartridge shell to really make it pop.

I have also pre-ordered a bunch (25) of Shadowfox's Genesis game case replicas.

Can anybody here throw together a sweet looking Donkey Kong Jr. cover that I can slip into the case to make it look as cool as possible?
Something with actual artwork, not like the Atarisoft cop-out covers.

Is anybody here game for this?

Here's the board:

Which artwork in particular?  The arcade artwork like this?

Or this

Because this

Already exists

The instruction panel might be nice for an insert

Looks great!
I love the instruction sheet, that will be a great crowning touch.

The cover picture looks great, but it is the right size for a Genesis case?

Thanks.

So if the above cover isn't Genesis case sized, what size is it? Is there a way to change the dimensions once I send it to print?
