Cool, thanks for the scans! But I was actually looking for scans of the entire manual. Not just the cover...

I've been having a lot of trouble getting good, flat scans lately. My scanner seems to be slowly dying, so if nobody scans it for you in the next few days, I will give it a go.

Eww, what's up with that cart shell on NB? ???

Also, any chance of just the raw scan of the box?

It seems like they made a cheap knockoff of bunnyboy's universal cartridge design. The shitty thing is the cart doesn't even fit in my SNES mini properly, while I have never had any trouble fitting any of actual carts.

Anyways, box scans:

Man, that's lame :/

Thanks!


1 for the wife and I, 2 for Oscar. We realized that our kid-friendly movie selection sorta sucks, so we're trying to fix that ;)

Anything Ghibli is a good start for kid friendly


Not really. I wouldn't show Grave of the Fireflies to a kid.

My wife and I picked up a few Studio Ghibli blurays during Amazon's sale last month. Totoro was a fantastic film.

Summer Wars was very good, but I preferred it when it was called Digimon Adventure: Our War Game ;)

My guess would be universal shell that fit both the PAL/JAP and US SNES.



It is a universal cart shell. My Star Ocean and Tales of Phantasia from retro usb both have this style of cart.

Its okay once you get use to it.  At first its a pain trying to center it, just remember a thumb on each side and your good to go.

Been playing alot of this game, and man does it really kick my butt,  can barely get to stage two.

What I got recently:




I got Dragon Quest IX complete, brand new condition for $16
America's Test Kitchen I got for a dollar brand new at Gamestop
Steel Diver I got for $5, and Pilotwings Resort which was $10 also came from Gamestop. (Pilowings didn't have the cover so I printed one off TCP. Thanks! :))
I also got a Gameboy Camera for $8

I'd actually be more cautious of Princess Mononoke over Grave of the Fireflies as far as safe/good for little Oscar to watch. He couldn't possibly understand either, but Mononoke could come off scarier.

 My kid is drawn to the Pixar movies and CGI Disney films (Bolt is a new favorite with the "goggie")

Just don't show him Cars, Cars 2 or Planes --- unless you want to watch them over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over until you've wished you never bought the thing in the first place.
