Some are better than others as the scans were cleaner. Also, most of the scans on that site were EU so we will have to deal until we get US scans.

I also stopped by 2 gigantic retro gaming stores in TN today and got a ton of games. I'm going to have a lengthy article in Retrogaming Times Monthly where I will talk all about them.

Oh and I did start the Dragon Warrior 3 back, but noticed I'll have to redo the back more completely, so it has wait till tomorrow.

Looking forward to it, thanks for all the hard work!  :)

Yeah they are definitely no where near site worthy, but at least I'm giving you guys something to work with and cutting some time off the entire process... Since I don't have the talents to clean them up like some, I'm going to do anything I can to help.

Also, my wife said she remembered seeing me have a California Games box and I remembered that there was one for the 2600. However I think it's too different from the NES one to be of any help.

No problem.

And I can scan my DW1 box.

Hey Arseen, did you ever get around to scanning DW1?  I'd love to round off the DW collection - I can live with the current version of DW3 (the back text looks good enough to me as-is) but our current DW1 was obviously from a bad scan.  If I had a better scan I'd try my hand at making a nicer cover for it.

Yeah, sorry.
I'll fire up the scanning computer now.

I Have a pretty good american copy of the Attack of The Killer Tomatoes that i can try to make into a cover if someone hasn't done that already.

Plus I need to look through all my other nintendo boxes because I have quite a bit more. I just havn't read through all the lists yet.

Without looking, I believe I have these boxes.

Attack of the Killer Tomatoes
Clash At Demonhead
Snoopy's Silly Sports
Tale Spin
Tiny Toon Adventures
Tom And Jerry
Wheel Of Fortune With Vanna White
Yo! Noid
Joshua
Monopoly
River City Ransom

If anyone wants them, just say the word and I will look for them after band practice.

Do list other boxes you have.
Out of those boxes we need:

Attack of the Killer Tomatoes
Snoopy's Silly Sports
Joshua

Thank you

Dragon Warrior raws uploading to this folder:
http://www.mediafire.com/?f2bi3kcpncqx4

There will be 5 Dragon Warrior files:
English front and back
English & French front and back
RAR file containing the 4 scans.

Connection is slow at the moment so it will take time to upload. >:(

Great, thanks!  Those might be a bit beyond my ability but I'm willing to get them a shot.  ;)

I saw that you have Spy Hunter raws in your mediafire folder and I've always wondered why we didn't have a Spy Hunter cover (it's among the more common/popular games on the NES I believe) so I put something together.  Let me know what you think:



I also tweaked the Elway cover I did a bit; rearranged the developer logo so it matches the rest of the NES games, and decided to go with a 5% horizontal stretch for the front instead of drawing to make up the difference.

Well I also notice that the only Bucky O'Hare that we have is the PAL Version. So I'll go ahead and add that unless someone already has.
So I suppose I will Start Scanning as soon as I get back home and then get to work seeing If I can make some good covers.

Needs bit cleaning, and covers bit too "washed out", but not bad at all.

I'll tweak it a bit and send you the result.

Darkened it a bit and replaced 1 screeshot as a test ( I can do bit better, this was quickie).

http://www.mediafire.com/i/?auy3smdsvfeqysi

Should I continue or, should we wait for better scans? ;)

EDIT:
Noticed this:
http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/raw/Nintendo%20-%20NES/BArseen.retail.raw_nes_spyhuntercoverback_au.jpg
Seems to be my scan, which means I can rescan when I locate the box!!! :D

Do that, I think BadChad did NTSC version aswell, but I think the raws he used weren't the best.
