There's no high res scans of the US cover but I found pics of it so I can recreate it using the CDN cover. As long as the creator doesn't mind me editing his work, I'll pm him.

Legitimately, does no one pay attention to Shenske?

There's really no difference other than some text....









Zoomed it up for you so you can re-type it out

True, and thanks but if the dude still wants the 100% US cover I'll still do it, I'll wait and see what he says.

It's clear that 3% difference is all the world to him and doesn't wants someone to redo it from scratch.

Yeah that source for the front is fine,  but I do want the US back. Might seem nit-picky but I want it to match the US retail. Held off on making a case for this game because of it.

Done. The fonts aren't exact to the box, they are the commonly used ones on NES covers here, so I assumed that's what you'd want. If not let me know and I'll make it more accurate.

*New cover at end of thread.

*Note: Also on the 4th line of the main text on the back. There is a typo on the original cover, 2 the's I fixed that but if you want it changed back let me know.

Alright no problem, that's what I originally wanted to do anyway. And I'll change the Nintendo logo at the top to black as well, just won't get to it until tonight.

And thanks ShoothimNow. :)

How ungrateful can this person be.  For F sake.  

For shits and giggles, in about a month, ill re-post this cover with 100% recreated screenshots.  Or maybe I won't. We will see... maybe this will delay him from printing the cover, maybe it won't.  If it doesn't, it will be hilarious to me posting it and having him spend a couple more dollars reprinting it.

If you want a 100% recreation and will bitch that it's not, then either provide us with a scan of the box (you could actually you know "spend money" to get this) or pay someone to do it, because otherwise, you sound like a prick nit-picking over something that you are probably ending up selling, all the while someone other than you is taking time out of their day to provide something that zero people are complaining about.

For the record, I scanned several hundred boxes for Mobygames under my real name. In fact I am in the top 200 contributors for the site.  He asked if that was OK, and if not to let him know if there was anything I wanted changed. What I asked for was pretty minor. 

I've put my money where my mouth is. I just lack skill with photoshop.
