Title: REQUEST: NES NTSC Pro-Wrestling with correct font
Post by: dmaxwell81 on September 30, 2017, 06:11:02 PM
I wanted to make myself a custom case for the US version of NES pro wrestling, but the one uploaded here has the wrong font on the front cover. Whatever font was used for the spine was put on the front and it's totally off for the actual release. It also looks like the author didn't clean up the logo for pro wrestling on the back of the box either as it looks slightly browned.

Yuck. The back looks like it was pulled straight from gamefaqs! That cover needs A LOT a lot of work. Anyone have a copy of the box they could scan and share?

Yes, I had the same thought. The back is low res and dirty. But I couldnt make a cover from it mostly because of that font on the front.

The scan of the back of the box over at MobyGames is much higher res, but of course would need clean up.

Anyone? I lack the skill for this, and would like to use it for a cover.

I'd be happy to do it. :) I'm new here but I've cleaned covers for other sites, this will be my first custom work here. Give me 24 hours.

Thanks! As you can see with the one on here, the front cover has some bizarre, wrong font.

Yep, I noticed. The raws on mobi are only 200 dpi but I'll make em work, it'll still look great in the end.

Are we talking about the cover hosted on the site
http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?game_id=4117

or the one that Shenske has linked to on TheCoverProject's front page?
http://www.thecoverproject.net/forums/index.php?topic=20072.msg182849#msg182849


The one being hosted was before we set stricter standards, and based off of those standards, the redone cover that Shenske did is still not up to snuff (no offense to Shenske).  He did a crapload of work to get what he could done, and some covers need more work.  Other than fixing up the back, I am not seeing what you guys are seeing.


It looks like you are looking for a completely new scan of the box.  I will say I didn't read your post in its full entirety.

Original: Skewed upwards
TCP Cover: Rotated

Looks good! Two (small) requests though - drop the 'rev A' in the corner and the font on the spine from the one on thecoverproject is fine; many of the black box games use it on here so I guess I want those to conform.

EDIT: oh wait! one small thing is off I didnt notice with this and urban champion - the 'white' part of the nintendo logo on the upper part spine can you change it to be black? the smaller 'nintendo' at the bottom is fine with a white background. that seems to be what most on here use

other than that pro wrestling is perfect

Sure thing, I haven't made NES covers here before so I wasn't sure what other artists do. I'll get it done tonight.

Alright, here ya go. Btw I just noticed that all of Shenske's NES covers are wider and have a bigger spine compared to all the NES covers on TCP.. That has me worried now that these aren't the right size. When you print them lmk if the spine seems to small, thanks.
