What dimensions are the cover inserts for the case? there are a few different sega variants im just wondering which ??px by ??px way yours are :)

This will be released alongside the covers and template.


Will we be seeing a link to the completed NES covers soon?

Arseen and I are working on it. Even though I have painstakingly improved each of the covers I worked on some would still not pass quality control to be posted on the site (simply need 100% new scans). Simplest way around this is to create a series of pages on the forum with preview images and download links. Creating preview images and download links for 750+ covers takes time.

Covers that do pass quality (majority) will be posted to the site's main database. They're coming and i appreciate everyone patience  :)

Maybe you are already doing this, but I would suggest a list of the games in one post (with no preview or images), with the name of each game linking to the download.  Follow that with a post (or possible two depending on character limit) that has each preview.  I just like the idea of the first post having a list without pictures, because I think that would be easier for me to download the ones I need.  I don't plan on downloading a full set as I'll never achieve that feat.

Just out of curiosity, how many NES game will still be missing covers when this is complete?  Also, are we including assessories like Game Genie, cleaning kits or Everdrives?  I know those are low priority, but I would lik to include them eventually.

Thanks for all your time and effort in this!!! ;D

I sincerely hope you are creating the preview images/thumbnails using a Photoshop batch script and not doing this manually.

Side note, you signature link doesn't work  :(

The thumbnails are created from the file hosting service I am using

I know. Somehow everything got deleted from my box.net. I will reupload everything when i get them time. To be honest, I don't even remember everything i had in there.

We are creating one thread per alphabetical character and one thread as a navigation page so you can choose the letter you want to be navigated to.

I have no idea how many covers will still need to be made after. There are a lot of unofficial NES releases and translations so it is hard to calculate. If I had to guess I'd say ~100 (but they are mostly really obscure titles). Unless you have a complete NES set I bet my covers will cover 99% of most everyone's collection.

I am creating covers for accessories and Everdrives but not all have been created yet.

Oh, I was just referring to licensed games.  If you don't know, that's ok.  I was just curious.

Can the NES cases hold the official Nintendo Cleaning Kit? I was thinking of getting one, but judging from the pictures, it doesn't look like it would fit in it.

Sort of.  They don't fit perfectly, but you DON'T have to modify them.  When the case is closed, nothing moves when I shake the case, so I would say it fit's pretty well.

Just a small update!

ALL THE PRE-ORDERS HAVE BEEN SHIPPED!  8) Sorry it took me so dang long!  ;D

There are about 4 more orders which I have not printed the postage for yet. (Since the printer is sitting right next to my sleeping Sister-in-Laws head here at Mid-Night) But tomorrow morning ALL orders will be dropped off completely! WOO!  8)

Yup, I shipped them all BEFORE sending the invoices.  8)
