TheValeman is EXTREMELY motivated, I do not think he takes time out to eat or sleep....
Breaks? He needs no stinking breaks.....  :)

He works 'round the clock for our gaming pleasure.....

Hey, that sounds kinda scary.......

I was just thinking.... he may have some kind of sweatshop over there.... could have like a dozen children working around the clock on these covers....   ;D

Hahaha, gotta check my Nike shoes, wonder if they say "made in New Zealand". The money he spends on those N64 boxes must come from somewhere... ;)

Hahaha .... Funny comments there guys  ;D

And to justify those here is Cyrille's Mario Kart 64 .....



This one had the front cover severely cropped so I had to do a heap of editing and import the red Nintendo logo from another cover. Still .... looks nice all in all. PAL users may prefer this look to the standard red/black cover .....

UPDATE.  Here's his EUR version of Super Mario 64 ..... this required a bit of work too .....


 

Uploaded already .....

Ok, well I uploaded Road Rash 64 & Midways Greatest Arcade Hits.

Many thanks to Nate1749 without whose box scans of Road Rash it would not have been possible.

Lets all hope they pass TheValeman's QC  check.  :)

I've uploaded the PAL version of Lylat Ware.  I think it's a little prettier than the NTSC Version.  Only problem was that Lylat Wars PAL came in a large box with a vibration pak.  The box seemed to reflect a little strangely on the scanner. Also, resizing the spin wasn't an option as it overly stretched the image, so I had to cut and composite to ensure that the game name fit on the spine.

All in all, I don't think I did too bad a job.

No Metroid on N64, What was Nintendo thinking? ;)

Alright, I managed to finish my first N64 Cover: Komani's Bottom of the 9th

I made both versions, using the Green and Blue Spine.




Notice about pictures: These are being displayed using a width of 287. Media Shelving are 294, so most faults in the picture are corrected when placed in the proper case.

Hi guys. I uploaded raw scans of Aidyn Chronicles. The box has some wrinkles, though.

Hi there,

I remoted into home and grabbed those Aidyn scans and I'll see what I can do about creating a cover. Thanks for uploading them.

Cheers

Well .... this is probably my worst cover ever but there really is little I can do with the rolling warped rear pic. Anyways ...cleaned up the front and did a complete remake of the spine as it was also pretty stuffed and here it is ....



It should do until we find a better copy. And thanks Shark for at least providing a cover for a game we haven't had one for up until now. Great stuff......

PS. Any chance you could scan the label at 300dpi and the manual too?
