REQUEST: Donkey Kong Country: Blockbuster World Video Game Championship II

[Playahstation]

I wanted to say thank you all.

You are most welcome

[FritzWhite]

I want a repro of this game for the SNES collection. It would be fun to see how close I'd get to the winning score of 3641.

I has one IIRC

pm sent.

Could I trouble someone for a vertical version of this (low quality is ok)? Thanks

[Lashek]

I managed to convert most of the front to a usable format. The rest should easily be doable by someone here.

This is the "logo" on the front minus the text, and without the DKC images in a Photoshop format. Someone should be able to easily add the text to the logo and I'm sure the DKC cliparts are available on google.

I've started to work on a vertical but I have some personal matters to deal with this week. I have less free time available. I will upload my version whenever i can finish it. I've already started restoring the Blockbuster logo. I think that everyone has the DKC logo that's been floating around since 2000. I think that the logos originated from ign. Anyway, I have lifted the tag team Kongs from a cart scan by sheep (many Thanks.) I also started a horizontal.

[FritzWhite]

Many thanks to you both. I really appreciate it

Do you guys think it would be cool if there was a spine/cover template for repro games that had "REPRO" clearly indicated on the spine/cover so there was no mistaking it for an original game?

Maybe the text on spine could be a different color and also say something other than 'Super Nintendo' to distinguish it from original games, so instead of saying 'Super Nintendo' in red text at top of spine, it could maybe say 'Repro' or 'Super Repro' in blue (or green) at the top of the spine.

Arseen's idea: Maybe replace 'Super Nintendo' text on the spine and front with stylised word 'Repro' or 'Super Repro' or turn the red text to green or blue and add text "repro" or "reproduction" under 'Super Nintendo' text like the PAL spine says PAL version now.

What do you guys think, is it a good idea to give repro games a special label to distinguish them from retail games?

[noemann]

i can tinker with a Repro spine but maybe you should ask Shenske to make a template. My opinion doesn't matter because you can do as you wish. I will make something and perhaps other members will participate. Every idea is a good idea. I would not disagree with someone's personal cover choices. Anyway, I will work on it too whenever i can do so.

[FritzWhite]

Just wanted to bounce the idea off some other minds cause we have some smart people here. I thought some others might be interested in a repro cover template but maybe not. I think I saw that Shenske is working on making covers for a new case on the market, but there are many good artists here and lucky for me I'm not too picky.

Shhhh...... Everytime you guys say repro the admins kill a kitty.

No we kill only if you ask where to get them or how to make them.

[Arseen]

add text "repro" or "reproduction" under 'Super Nintendo' text like the PAL spine says PAL version now.

You could have posted the mock up I did :

[FritzWhite]

I wasn't sure if that was ok as it's somewhat taboo here. Anything that obviously identifies it as being repro is good enough for me

Taboo here is only telling where to buy repros or telling how to make them.
Shenske doesn't like his template to be altered but hopefully he forgives me as this is just small size concept mock-up.

[FritzWhite]

OK

[shenske]

I made a one exclusively for someone a few months ago. He gave me the go ahead to share it here. Ill convert it to the vertical template tonight. It's very different from the original BlockBuster design, you guys will like it
