| Unlicensed/Unauthorized games? |

| the7k:
Just wanting to know the rules of the game, is all. Is there any hard and fast rule about unlicensed/unauthorized games? Games like Somari, Bubble Bath Babes, Final Fantasy VII Famicom and Kart Fighter, while hard to get a hold of, were all actually produced at some point or another. I'd think that these games are just as deserving of covers as games like Half-Life and Propeller Arena, but I'll wait for an official response before I needlessly waste my time. |

seeing that the games are on produced carts and all, i don't see why we couldn't make covers for them, i got a few chinese pirate carts myself. I'd say as long as they are original games instead of some easy sprite hack they should be fine. |

Sorry about the delay. We have decided that covers for games that were not officially released cannot be supported. So if a cover for Half-Life (DC) were to be uploaded today, it would not be put on the site, regardless of quality. When Snowcone gets a chance, all covers for games that were never released will be removed from the site. |

For what it's worth - I'd like to see any covers currently uploaded to stay. It seems kinda cruddy for anyone who might have went through the effort to create and upload a cover to have it removed based on a policy determined after the work has been completed. Just as the lower-quality covers are "grandfathered" in (until higher quality replacements are uploaded), it'd be nice if these types of covers that are all ready up were grandfathered in as well. Just one man's opinion, of course... :) |

Read my post a little more carefully. |
