Has the wii remake been announced for the US? These are US covers after all. As far as I know the wii port is japan only, but feel free to tell me I'm completely wrong.  ;)

Exclusive like in Capcom saying "Resident Evil 4 will be a Gamecube exclusive" ;)

This is Capcom after all, as much as I love them, they like money above all else. Biohazard Zero did not do too well in Japan sales-wise but a few thousand people still bought it to warrant a Wii port of the Resident Evil Remake for Gamecube. So with time every Resident Evil up until Code Veronica X will find its way to the Wii and once they're all released, Capcom will bring them to the U.S. and Europe for a budget price in order to finally get the few people to play Resident Evil that somehow avoided playing it all the time :D

As for your "only for"-tag question. In the end it's your custom cover so you can basically do as you like. Me personally, I was never a fan of the "only for"-tag and I think it would mess up the uniform design of your covers.

it's a bit too late to change the "only for" tags on RE0 and 1 now, since they're already uploaded.

The way I see it, though, is that it reflects their status while the gamecube was still a current gen console. A good example would be Zelda: Collector's Edition, which has an "only for" tag despite every game on there being available on other, older consoles.

I agree with Kaiser on what he said. I seriously don't doubt that capcom will release those games over here in a "budget" pack, seeing as how right now the Wii seems to have been reduced to a dumping ground for last gen games.

would you be able to edit the american rating thing for the pal people
restore the color to all the covers because there is kinda too much red for me to print them, put the resident 1 evil ntsc on resident evil 0, change code veronica to the ps2 version(may require posting in the other thread, and finally change the residen evil 4 to wii
thanks

Yep, and I'm not sure how much of Apple's design remains when all those changes are applied. Seems like he wants to change everything, from spines to color to different artwork to different consoles :D

But hey, if he wants it that way good luck with his request.

Here's the problem with converting them to other templates. See where the logo is placed on the spine? See those umbrella symbols at the top? Well, since the gamecube's spine logo is located on the bottom, and the playstation, wii, dreamcast, etc, is located on the top, it makes it very difficult, if not altogether impossible to do a good template conversion while keeping the series uniform.

I'm a bit too busy to tackle something like what you want unfortunately. You're asking me to essentially remake the covers from scratch, which kinda kills the point. If someone else wants to try a PAL conversion or something, that's fine with me.

For some reason the Gamecube spine logo is located on the top on PAL games. Whoever wants to do a PAL conversion might want to keep that in mind.

I don't think it would be very hard to convert it to another template at all, really. Here's a quick idea of how it would look:

you can keep the console logo thing at the bottom of the spine im not fussed about that, what i ment was change that M thing to 16+ or 18 like on pal consoles

if you want pal style, you seriously can't be more concerned about the rating than the authenticity of the spine!?!?!?!?
