Title: GB Memory Cartridge DS Cover
Post by: FreemanC17 on July 31, 2023, 10:18:49 AM
First time poster, longtime user (before account creation) of TheCoverProject. Thought i'd give back for a chance.

One of the more interesting parts of my collection is the JP exclusive Nintendo Power GB Memory Cartridge (JP Official flash cartridge of sorts), and while upgrading all my game cases to CustomGameCases boxes, I wanted this one to go with it. Utilizing the Nintendo Handheld Template provided by Shenske (found on the main template thread: http://www.thecoverproject.net/forums/index.php?topic=1610.0) and working from there, I was able to make a cover I am happy with. Very happy, in fact.

I aimed to replicate the original box it was sold in at Lawson's stores across Japan as much as possible, while still adapting for the DS/GB box form factor, adding icons where appropriate. I've made a version with both the GB and GBC side banners and spine imagery on them. This was a fun project, and am really happy with how this one came out! I am working on a CGC/Shadowfox cover for the SF Memory Cassette as well (Super Famicom counterpart to the GB Memory), and will share when I am happy with it.

As the "upload folder" is full for post upload, images can be found here: https://imgur.com/a/mCfDOQh

I would LOVE to be able to upload this to the official repository of TheCoverProject and share with you all more officially, however this particular cover doesn't have a corresponding game. Understandable, as it's not a "game" per-se.

Regardless, I hope you all enjoy this one, and if you have this unique cartridge yourself, that you can make use of this in your collection :)

Ooh that's great! I actually have the Super Famicom version SOMEWHERE buried deep in storage. Unfortunately will be years before I have access to it.
