We got the NTSC version here on site, which is the same game as the PAL.

However, the FAMICON version is a completely different game. I have a version where the text-boxes are displayed in english, rather than japanese.

Can someone make it happen :)? I don't got much more info, other than the cover-art can be seen on wikipedia:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Wars_(1987_video_game)

I know it's a longshot, but I know people got skills on this site, so I'm crossing my fingers :)

Someone made the jp version of Star Wars. It's on the forums. Just do a forum search.

Sorry, but if I search Star Wars, I can't find it. Maybe I'm doing it wrong?

UPDATE:
If I write "star wars" if the "-signs, I get 18 pages.
That seems more like a long shot and a wild-goose chase, than a collection of covers in orderly fashion - systematized and organized.

    • My Covers
Found a Star Wars famicom cover within a couple of minutes:

Ok. That works for me. Here are my updated covers.

Everything look ok shenske? I'll continue making covers this way, if so.

Okey, so I found something - but the fact that you have to do a "forum search" and go 11 pages deep in a thread, on page 8, to find the cover blows my mind.
Shouldn't we, as a community, organize it better? Submit those covers to the "consoles"-bar on the left side on the screen? Why on earth do we have it spilt up like this?


UPDATE:
Thanks aaron-hagel :) - Found it too, but took me some time. If you guys hadn't told me that cover was already "on the site", I wouldn't have found it, due to the obscurity this split system.

Same search, "star wars", when you do the search there's the title and below the title appear the same title follow by the name of the person who post, you have to click the second title, and that one let you to the search you made. You have to scroll some thread but you'll find them each search. ;)
