Title: NES Manual Template
Post by: BadChad on April 30, 2010, 05:08:59 PM
Does anyone happen to have a template for an NES manual?

I want to complete my Gimmick! cart I put together using the original jap board and a 72 pin converter. Definetly my favorite NES cart. Already made myself a nice custom label and cover for it, now all I need is a manual. Wouldnt mind making a manual for my Gradius 2 cart either that I built the same way. I did a quick look through the database to find a scanned NES manual for an example but didnt see anything. A template to get the manual to print out at original size would be great. Thanks!

Heres some photos of my beautiful baby ;D:

I got a .)template made when I was scanning covers for super mario bros / duck hunt / world class track meet and castlequest. (too bad my manuals didn't make the manual site for some reasons..

Im not going to do that to any of my games, just Gimmick. The cover was white anyway so I didnt need to use alot of ink. As temting as it is to do that to all my UGC covers it would be far to expensive on ink.

Wow, what a nice Gimmick cover. You seem to have a knack at making Famicom to NES covers. Mind posting it? Even though I just have the Famicom version, I'd like that cover.

I've never heard of that game before, I just youtubed it and it looks awesome. Kind of like rockman and Kirby mixed together. I agree with Satoashi, you should upload the cover here :)

The game is actually difficult. The physics sometimes works against you especially when you are sliding down the slopes.

Difficult? Yes. Fun? Most definitely. It also proves Nintendo was into Gimmicks far before the Wii  :D
