Waku, waku, waku! It's Pac-Man time! Here are two new Pac-Man covers for your collections. Both of these covers are already on the main site as well but the quality is horrible. I had so much fun doing these two Pac-Man covers. I'm very happy with the way they turned out. Be sure to check back soon. I will have another one for you guys. Happy collecting!

This is my new cover for Asterix

http://www.mediafire.com/view/doi7zd8q11w4bcz/Asterix.png

Good job on the cover for Asterix. However, I found a lot of mistakes on that cover. European Game Boy games say "Original" not "Official" on the seal of quality and the Game Boy Game Pak logo. There are two spelling errors on the information text on the back cover. The words "battling" and "potion" are misspelled. Also, there shouldn't be "Nintendo of America, Inc." on the legal text because this is a European game. It was never released in the U.S. The retail screenshots have also been replaced with screenshots taken off an emulator. The retail screenshots should be left intact. Last, but not least, original Game Boy and Game Boy Color games don't have a drop shadow on the front side bar. Nintendo started putting that on the Game Boy Advance side bar. That's all I can spot. I plan one day to buy Asterix complete in box so I can scan the box and restore it to help The Cover Project.

I've updated the cover based on your comments. Thanks for those comments.
The misspelled words and the seals are replaced and the legal text is improved.
Unfortunately I coudn't find any screenshot from the original box that I could use for the cover.
I left the drop shadow in place because I like the look of that.

Very nice improvement on the Asterix cover, NickGeel! Now it looks more like it should. Keep up the good work on your covers.  :)

Do you think you can upload them without the drop shadow on the front? No GB game had that.

I thought you guys would like that little introduction. This is a very special update because I have two new Garfield covers for everyone. These are the only two Garfield games that were released on Game Boy Advance. I watched Garfield so much as a kid and I still like Garfield as an adult. Garfield was a big part of my childhood. I grew up watching the TV specials and Garfield and Friends. I have a very funny childhood memory to tell. This was back in 1990 when I was 7. When I came home from school one day, I started watching the newest episode of Garfield and Friends my mom recorded for me while I was at school. The episode I was watching has the cartoon "Binky Gets Cancelled!" One part in the cartoon, Binky the clown gets called into the boss's office. After the boss tells Binky something, Binky's mouth drops open. The boss then tells him "I'm afraid you're through!" When I first saw that, I thought the boss said "I'm afraid of your throat!" ;D Ha ha ha ha ha! Looking back on my childhood, I can't help but think "How can you be afraid of someone's throat?" This cracks me up every time I think about it. This episode is on the 3rd disc in the Volume 1 DVD set of Garfield and Friends. Well, have fun casing up your Garfield games!

I've rebuild the cover for Mickey Mouse completely. (the cover on the site was terrible)
It took me ages, but it's finally done.

Looks good, but do you think you can upload one without the drop shadow on the front? No retail GB game has that.

Hey, guys! I'm back with another cover. It's my 2nd Mario game cover for Game Boy Advance. I know larryinc64 already made a cover of this but his spine is completely custom. I wanted to make a full retail accurate cover and it's now available! I hope you guys like it. This is the first cover where I recognized all the fonts that were used on the back cover. This made it a snap to retype all the text. I put a little over 3 hours of work into this cover. Take care!

Rockabilly1983 strikes back with two more covers this time for the original Game Boy. It's been a long time since I made covers for the original Game Boy because I've had lots of Game Boy Advance boxes to work on. I'm planning on buying more original Game Boy boxes on their own to scan and restore. Many people have requested Tetris Attack for original Game Boy and it's now here. It's also a brand new cover The Cover Project doesn't have. The site only has the Super Nintendo cover. I enjoy helping collectors case up their games by making covers. Every time I look on eBay to find empty boxes, I'm always thinking "What box am I going to work on next?" There are so many to choose from that it's hard to decide. Ha ha ha ha! Check back soon! I'll have some more covers for you then.
