[Request] N64 Console Box Scan

[ViRGE]

Hi all nice to meet you wonderful people!

Is anyone able to help find a good quality scan of a Nintendo 64 Console box? I cannot find one anywhere online.

Cheers,

ViRGE

Few have thought on scanning... nondone so far I think.
Would scan if I still had mine.

I would think a main issue would also be that most people don't have a scanner large enough to scan an entire console box.

True.
Mine can only scan bit bigger than A4 (so maybe Legal).
But Should be easy enough to scan in parts and then stitch them into one picture by side of the box.

I've tried that before, but the the raised area around my scanner bed lifts the box away from the surface and creates a shadow that makes it difficult to stitch the images together.

You just need to scan in more parts.

That has worked for me with smaller boxes, but with big boxes when I get to the center of the box, it's being kept away from the scanner surface on all sides so it sort of floats above the glass. It's a little hard to describe what I mean, but I haven't been able to make it work.

Cheers for getting back to me so quick, I may just try and get one on ebay and do it myself. I am a whizz on photoshop so the stiching wouldnt bother me.

Will post on here when I have it complete.

Here is a scan created by Spiral and MaxiBolide over on Nintandbox.net

Its the European French and German Version.

You will need to create an account to access the download button but its quick and easy.

I know what you mean.
Just put something flat and unflexible like heavy hard cover book inside the box and you can press it so it's less off the glass.

Wow thanks guys. If only this French one was English! It may have to do, unless anyone else has any ideas on some English ones being available? Does anyone know the font on the box I can download?
