Title: Japan Import GB games (PHOTOS ADDED)
Post by: SumCanadianGuy on December 09, 2015, 06:29:54 PM
I have about 30 or so Japanese import GB games that I want to cover and box, Problem is with some of them I have no Idea what the game is because its written in Japanese. Is there a section for this? Or a guru to where if I upload a photo of the games they can help?

Sorry they are just links. The img tag didn't want to work from my phone and my wife kinda fell asleep on me on the couch lol.

Obviously I know what some of them are but most I have no idea. Wanting to box them all.

Another option would be to use the image search on google (uploading a label). Google will find similar images and you will probably end up on some kind of wiki or game review site with the info you need. :)

Duh, now I feel dumb. I'll find what I can that way and make a list for the rest. Thanks for smartening me up haha. I'll use the "I work overnights so I'm always tired" excuse.

Yes I know "resolution this" "dpi that" this is all I could find and they were hard to find. I tried to "remaster" them the best I could considering my sources.

I doubt anyone else will want them but if it is ok with mods I will upload the covers I find/make to this thread.

I did a quick mock up for Kawa no Nushi Tsuri 3. I did a cover for the English version, so i really just moved logos and icons around. Let me know what you think!

Looks good to me! I like how you opted to center the back panel rather than stretch it. I may have to go that route in the future also. I like the look of the back cover being full but I also like it not being stretched

Thanks! Glad you liked it! I saw a Japanese cover of Pokemon Midori done the same way. And since this community hates stretching followed suit!

Just finished this one. I tried something different with the back and front and really like the way it turned out.
