Has anyone got a retail or raw cover for this one?

what exactly do you mean by retail? this is an NES homebrew game, it was never sold in stores.

It was sold as at least 3 different versions: Cart only, CIB and Deluxe.

Retail may not be the correct word to use.

The game is still being sold through superrussianroulette.com, and a real box was made.
Many owners of the game (at least 550) received that box, either because they bought it from that website, or because of the tier they backed on the Kickstarter.
Some owners didn't receive the box because they backed a lower tier that netted them just the loose game (plus dust cover, manual, controller skin).

Please forgive me. I'm new. How exactly should I word the request?

I need someone to have scanned the box, and then run it through the NES UGC template.
OR
I need the raw scan. With that, I would run it through the template myself.

So far: the highest quality image of the front I've found is this:

But it has too many reflections.

These have the same problem:

I also can't find any images of the back or sides.

Someone has to have this box!!!!

It's a very good start! It is indeed helpful.

There are reflections in the screens on the back cover, but luckily no reflections on the front (that I can see at the moment). These are minor quibbles however. Especially since this cover has been unobtainum in nearly any form until now for whatever reason.

Thank you damcanadian for your efforts.

I still call on anybody who has the actual cover IRL to please scan it in a higher resolution and upload it here!

How come this keeps showing as someone has posted a new post? but when I look there is nothing new here?

I mean there was a new post yesterday. Could also be spam posts, which happen a lot around here, which the mods are usually pretty quick to clean up.

No great mystery.
I have been bumping the thread (when it drops off the first page as per rules) with the last message I wrote to Oobgarm (thanking him in advance for offering to scan the cover).

The rules state that if you bump, you must delete the previous bump and make a new one.

Quote from: Doom
2. You are only allowed to bump a topic when is is off of the first page of the request list. One page is 20 threads. When yours is the 21st thread, and moved to the second page, you may bump it.
3. Consecutive bumps are not allowed. Delete your prior bumps in a thread (if any) before making a new bump.

What you're seeing is afo bumping his last post to keep it near the top of the request pile. You're allowed to bump a post when it drops off the first page of requests so that it has a better chance of being noticed.

I like it! I wish it was more clearly an NES game (Zapper reference is the only tell). I have the game with a Hi-Def NES and HDMI capture equipment so a I can probably get some high quality versions of those screen shots.

Unless you have the scans to the box, I don't see anyone ever really making this for you.

Three months later, here you are. Sorry to keep everyone waiting, life happened.

These were scanned, straightened, and given a quick once-over on cleaning dust. No color editing, so these are basically straight from the scanner.
