Custom matching Mega Man NES covers or boxes with Famicom art?
marioxb:
Has anyone seen these? I HATE the NES art for the Mega Man games (especially 1 and 2). I found this on deviant art. I wonder if the guy made 300dpi full size versions of these. Does anyone on TCP have anything like this?:
If not those, then what about these:

The first pic above is basically what Capcom uses as the "official" English box art for the game selection in Mega Man Legacy. It also has a whole bunch of cool art in the museum sections. Textless art, Famicom boxes and carts, even the original ugly US and PAL art. I only have the 3DS version of MML, but I assume it's in the other console versions as well. Its probably not 300/600dpi, but I'd love to have it extracted from the game anyway. Anyone know if it's been done/ possible?
marioxb:
Everyone is just happy with that ugly ass US/ EU Mega Man art, huh
Megatron:
Yup. :D
Except that weeeird MM1 cover. Though the J version isn't much better.

Those deviant art covers are using scans from the Mega Man 20th Anniversary Art Book. I've only got a digital copy that isn't high enough quality to use for covers, but if you or someone else has a copy of the book and scans the images, then a cover could be made. Here are a couple example pages with artwork from the book.

Thanks. Looks like a pretty cool book. I'll have to pick it up.
