Title: These SNES games need cover
Post by: Arseen on September 16, 2011, 03:41:52 PM
Sorry my hands were shaking, ask if you need to know which game is which.
US Verticals in English naturally wanted.

And atleast Super Adventure Island 2 missing.

Hey Arseen,
That is regular Wheel of Fortune and not Deluxe Edition, correct?

Correct, I have the Deluxe edition printed already.

EDIT: Scratch Madden '94, found that I had that.

Still on the lookout for a good Spindizzy raw myself if anyone's got that box.

Box I don't have, but I have the manual.

Using the manual's front here (scanned @ 600DPI):
http://www.mediafire.com/i/?p2ba5ylp2j580vx

Suitable screen shots (these should be big enough):
http://www.google.fi/search?q=spindizzy+worlds&hl=fi&biw=1920&bih=846&tbs=isz:m&tbm=isch&prmd=imvns&source=lnt&sa=X&ei=kUx0TuPyO8im0QXc0tCYCA&ved=0CA4QpwUoAg

Suitable parts of the text in this add (unless someone can provide that actual text):
http://www.outofprintarchive.com/articles/reviews/SNES/SpindizzyWorlds-NMS2-1.html

And the Vertical US template you should be able to make the Vertical cover.

SPINDIZZY WORLDS! JOIN THE REVOLUTION!

THE PLACE. A solar system layered with clusters of worlds so perilous,
nothing but top speed and intense coordination can transport you from
sphere to sphere! While spinning through multiple dangers, objects, and
aliens, you must gather the jewels, fuel and bonus levels needed to win
your way to more difficult and complex worlds.

THE TIME. In such places, minutes become seconds and seconds slip by
...you're always on the verge of time running out. Since fuel supplies
deplete quickly and must constantly be replenished, only bold, expert
explorers beam themselves into such lethal arenas--but the payoffs
are big!

THE CHALLENGE. You may get safely from place to place by using lifts
or ramps, and by collecting jewels and energy crystals. But danger lurks
in every corner, and keeping yourself from the jaws of destruction is an
incredible challenge.

* 30 treacherous worlds to explore
* 15 increasingly difficult levels in each world
* Stunning graphics and sound
* A variety of dangerous enemies and hazards
* Mapping mode reveals terrain ahead
* 4 different perspectives provide a 360° view of each level
* Password access to every level
Font seems to be some form of Futura.

That should be enough to make a vertical cover, but I'd still love a raw scan for a true retail version.

Oh nice. Thank you. Hope somebody makes the cover.

And hope someone will get you the raws, I never had that box.

I might still be able to recreate it accurately from scratch. Fired up the ol' emulator and reproduced 3 out the 4 screenshots on the back of the box almost exactly (2 were from the tutorial level).


What are the other games pictured? We should buy you a tripod.  :P

So, Arseen, it looks like you prefer the vertical format over the retail format.
Since all of the U.S.-released SNES games were released in a horizontal format, wouldn't the vertical format usually need to crop off a lot of the picture?
Speaking as a newbie here, wouldn't regular horizontal covers 'look nicer'?

I'm just getting started here, and I think that I want horizontal covers for my less-than-30-carts-away-from-a-complete-SNES-cart-only-set.
Of course, I would probably prefer to have all of my covers (which I haven't printed even one yet) in the same format.

I made the template with the original art in mind. You shouldn't need to crop anything.

Yep, it just looked better, and is closer to other game case styles (Jaguar, NES , Mege Drive...).

Since all of the U.S.-released SNES games were released in a horizontal format, wouldn't the vertical format usually need to crop off a lot of the picture?

Not much cropping needed. Usualy you can strech the image bit without noticeable distortion.

Speaking as a newbie here, wouldn't regular horizontal covers 'look nicer'?

Everyone have their own taste, but I like the uniformity between console covers.

I'm just getting started here, and I think that I want horizontal covers for my less-than-30-carts-away-from-a-complete-SNES-cart-only-set.

As I collect Verticals covers I can help finding Vertical versions of covers that are and/or will not make the site more easily.
And those are also more often available, especially for repro or cross region (for example US game cover with PAL or JAP art).
Otherwise no objection to which cover version you end up using


Of course, I would probably prefer to have all of my covers (which I haven't printed even one yet) in the same format.

Naturally all covers must match.

Thanks for the response.

I counted 303 horizontal-style covers which could be used for NTSC SNES games in the download section.
Of course there are 721-727 NTSC US_region SNES games currently - depending on how you count them, so 303 is not even half of what is needed.

I didn't count the vertical covers, because it seemed that there were fare less vertical NTSC covers than there were horizontal NTSC covers.

Does anyone know if a complete 721-727 set of covers has been produced yet?

Thank you.

With 100% certainty no, not even in crap quality.
