Here's a link to all of the preview images.

Here's the template. Let me know if there are any tweaks that could be made in order for it to be more user-friendly. I spent a while revising it so that it's as use-friendly as possible, but I'm so familiar with it that I could have easily over-looked something that isn't immediately obvious to another user.

I recently completed converting all of the old white N64 covers that I and a few other TCP members (most notable, Pringlesman) created over the last few years. 'Twas a painstaking process, involving recreating many small icons and such with vectors, cleaning up a LOT of grainy, blurry artwork, redesigning the template and rebuilding it from scratch, and trying to make it as user-friendly as humanly possible.
In the meantime, here are some examples of the work that went into the project.

Looks good man, can't wait to buy the white cases
Also, do the cut lines print on the final? I hope so, most annoying part about white backgrounds was finding the cut area, love that you have those in there
-
Yeah, the cut lines are in the final files :)
-
Very nice, wiggy. I'm really digging the gold texture on the OoT cover!
As always, thanks for sharing!

The first complete batch of covers has been printed and cut. The shipping company called me yesterday and confirmed that the cases will arrive on Tuesday next week :)
(http://i86.photobucket.com/albums/k99/wiggyx/image_14.jpg)
LOTS of cases. Took my staff and I a few hours to clear enough space for them when they arrive next week.

-
O you're selling the covers too? Or is that for your collection? For some reason I thought it would be like the NES release where we have to do all the printing, are you selling blank cases as well or am I just looking into this too far? They do look damn good tho man
-
Blank cases and covers :)

White N64 CGCs are here!

A little cheesy before and after that I'll use on the website ;)

I love before and after pics that include stuff that has nothing to do with anything (like how your SNES boxes suddenly became neatly lined up after buying N64 games cases). ;D
-
I just had to. So many commercials and print ads have used that trick forever :P
-
So the N64 CGC's are complete? Do you know when Shadowfox's website will be offering them?
-
He's not offering the white covers/cases on his site. They'll only be on my site. I'm not sure what his plan is for N64 covers, since there isn't a complete set using the other template styles.
-
Just to note, the top screenshot (and maybe the one directly below it) on that OOT cover is from the 3DS release.
Also why does this have to be coming out at about the same time as the Switch. I only have so much money to spend on video games.

I actually meant, when will he be offering the gray ones :)?

I know it. I believe the top 3 are all from the 3DS release. I didn't have a ton of luck finding good screen caps from the N64 version, so I used those instead.

I have no clue. Why not ask him instead?

N64 cases are up on the site!

Seems like kind of a rip-off.

How so?

The funny thing is, I was just looking yesterday at wiggy's price for all 300 N64 cases, and it is very reasonable.
-
Seems like kind of a rip-off.
How so?
Yeah, truth be told the price is pretty good. Considering the cost of shadow fox cases, shipping, good paper, shipping, good ink (free shipping from amazon) and the time to print, cut and assemble, this isn't a bad alternative.
-
Doesn't seem like a ripoff to me but why is there no bulk discount unless you get the full set? ???
-
Basically I just followed Shadowfox's pricing. Honestly at $4 per case, there isn't much wiggle room.

Covers are FINALLY uploaded. Enjoy!

Can you provide a link. I looked through your covers and downloaded one but seemed to be a UGC.
-
I did. It's in the first post.
-
I just downloaded your files and I think you uploaded the wrong ones. The ones you uploaded are 1000x594 and I think they should be closer to 3500x2100.
-
Crap. Those must be the old preview images. I'll fix it ASAP.
Though keep in mind that I use metric measurement to determine the dimensions of my covers/templates, so they won't be exactly 3500x2100.

They are also 150 dpi.

Yeah, they're preview images. They're not gonna be full res.

I haven't had a chance to go into all of the PSDs and make JPGs yet. I DID just send those DVDs out to you though.

I'll just leave this here.

This is great; thanks so much. You guys just saved me tons of time. :D

In what is possibly the least fair thing ever, someone has released some 70 of the n64 logos remade with vector graphics.

Very nice!

Bah, doesn't matter. Those spine logos are so damned small (and some of the covers already have vector logos that I created) that the difference would be nearly impossible to detect.
-
Maybe I'm just overlooking it, but is there no CGC gameshark cover?
-
Not currently, though one could easily be made. But it was my understanding Shadowfox cases don't fit gamesharks. I don't have one to test.

I'm certain it would fit with some type of modification. If anything, the slightly thicker spine on the CGC would be better for the Game Sharks that have that serial port that sticks out the back and causes a UGC to bulge slightly.
-
Gameshark cartridge fits perfectly in the case. When closed there is a slight bulge, but nothing noticeable. I can post pics if need be, but I have two models (2.1 and 3.3) and both fit fine.
-
Hm. I have 1 case leftover from shelving my set. I might have to pick up a gameshark.
-

There is one. I'll make sure it gets up along with the number of accessory cases that I've made as well.

I’ll get it up this week along with a few JP covers that were customer requests.

Gameshark is up!

-
Thank you, good sir!
-
Sure thing!
I’ve got the rest of the accessory cases to convert as well. I’ll get to them soon (hopefully)

Just looking into finally buying some of these from you Wiggy, these seem to be the nicest and most consistent quality wise for the covers.
Btw, it seems as though Oot has some 3DS screens on the back of the cover?

It does. Don't let Shoothimnow in here, or I'll be blasted by his hate.
Edit: Just updated it with Smooth's rebuilt caps.

Ah well, I'm not needing that one right now anyway, was just something I noticed when checking out the covers.
Btw, does the art come pre cut with the boxes?
Thanks again.

Yup! They come ready to go on the shelf :)

Does anyone have pictures of their collection wrapped in these?
wiggy?
pringlesman?
I really wanna see what they look like all on a shelf in Shadowfox cases

All links seem fine.
With which you are having trouble?
-
kzbolin, the link to wiggy's folder containing these covers is on page 1 of this thread. However, for whatever reason, it does not seem as if any of the Japanese covers on wiggy's last post made it into that folder at all.

nbart 711 is the one asking for links, I have all the covers downloaded. :)
I want to see pictures of people’s N64 collections in Shadowfox cases, with these covers on them.
I want to see some shelfie’s! 8)
-
You're totally right, my mistake. nbart posted right below you and my brain fudged the two posts together.
I'm still pretty sure that those Japanese/repro covers in the above post never made it to wiggy's Box folder, though.
-
Oh youmeant those covers... ::)
I didn't see them either in the account linked in first post.

So my game room is an absolute mess right now. I have been moving things around and, well, time and motivation aren't what they used to be. So my pics are...mediocre. But this can show how snazzy these can look on a shelf (especially on good paper).

They're right here, guys.
See link below or on first page.
I'll make sure the links are working. Sorry about that.
edit: Copied the covers over to the correct folder. They're now in both the N64 UGC covers folder AND the Shadowfox folder.

I can snap a pic. Unfortunately they're spread out on my floor waiting for me to build some new shelving :/
-
So the link in the first post, I click on one and they all seem to not be the full res? Only way to bring it up seems to be to go to other thread and click on a pic directly? The link above that Wiggy posted doesn't work it seems too.
-
I don’t understand why that folder keeps preventing people from accessing it, no matter how I adjust the settings. Maybe this will work?
https://app.box.com/s/ozq6sj1y8lpvobgvh6qi
edit: for some reason that I can’t figure it, some of the covers in that folder were set up to NO share. That may have made the folder inaccessible to anyone but myself.

Thanks!
-
wiggy. i love ur work but i found imperfections in the new OOT cover.
link pulling the buster master sword is a 3ds remake shot.
so is the one underneath. also the quality seal on it now looks yellow

Did you download it, or are you just looking at the preview? I fixed the screencaps a while back and re-uploaded it (shows up as REV1 in the box account).
Thanks!

Is there a CGC version of Hybrid Heaven? When I open the links I can find the UGC version, but that's it.

Yes. Are just going through the box files? Maybe I accidentally uploaded the UGC version.
-
Actually, now that I'm looking closer, most of the files I see are UGC. I click the box link on the first page (and the link on the 5th page) and there are some JP or repro CGC covers, but the rest all seem UGC size with the grey border instead of the cut marks. And the only Hybrid Heaven on there is definitely UGC size.

Every time I use box anymore things seem to go awry. I’ll take a look at it again ASAP.

Hey Wiggy, I was trying to download all the images, but I've noticed that I don't see a cover for Hey You Pikachu. Unless I missed it?

Ugh.
I’ll get it up ASAP. Sorry about that.
