Now that Shadow has his Genesis cases ready, I need to prepare some covers for my two Famicom games. I know what template I want to use, so I'm just looking for raw scans. One of these requests is probably (?) common, the other is a bit more obscure.

I've only got two Famicom games: Mother (Earthbound Beginnings), and Ys 1: Ancient Ys Vanished.

Mother box art images are everywhere, and I even found a custom case (probably made for a UGC), but the back of it has been retyped in English. I'd really like to have the original Japanese box art. I found a good example/good pictures of the box in an Ebay auction. http://www.ebay.com/itm/MOTHER-Can-be-save-Boxed-Famicom-NES-Japan-game-Work-fully-10546-/181900543915?hash=item2a5a1e07ab

The second game is more obscure (though probably not to the collectors at TCP): Ys 1: Ancient Ys Vanished. Again, I found an Ebay auction with some photos of the box at a couple different positions. http://www.ebay.com/itm/HIT-YS-Famicom-NES-Boxed-Nintendo-FC-JAPAN-1011Xa-/311460795944?hash=item4884829628

Okay, I've managed to find someone with the box for Ys who is willing to scan it. It's something he'll get to "eventually" but it sounds like he's scanning a lot of boxes (probably for the same reason). I'll just be patient and wait for him.

I have not found a source for the Mother box yet.
