Request: Bubble ghost - GB - Any - No images :(

[Highwind]

Would love to get a cover (NDS-style, US) for my Bubble Ghost for GB. If retail-cover ain't possible then a custom one would be much appriciated.
Hopefully someone can help me, thanks in advance. <3

Welcome to The Cover Project, Highwind!

I don't have a cover for Bubble Ghost for original Game Boy. Two others have requested this cover. I'm determined to get a copy of that game complete in box for scanning purposes soon. That is a rare game and it goes for a lot of money complete. I put your request into my personal Game Boy cover requests list. I hope I can find a decently priced copy of the game when I go to Portland Retro Gaming Expo next month.

Thanks!

Yeah I've noticed it's a bit tricky to find outisde of Europe, unfortunatly. I've seen a few go on Ebay for about 50-60 bucks though, dunno if it's a fair price or not.
Thank you so much for you commitment to the cause Rockabilly, you don't know how much I appriciate it.

I just took a look on eBay. I found a few more complete in box copies for sale. I'm so happy I never tried to purchase the one complete copy I saw for $200 a few months ago. There are now a few more complete copies for sale on eBay. The cheapest complete copy is the European version and the 2nd cheapest complete copy is the USA version.

It's a pleasure to help you, Highwind! I enjoy helping collectors case up their loose games. It just makes your collection look much more beautiful!

Well not to take away from rockabilly but I was bored and figured I could save him some money (beside, this is on my list so I'll need a cover sometime too). Anyway, here is a cover I was able to put together from what I could find on the internet.  Cleaned up a decent image for the front and rebuilt the back.

Damn Bear! That looks wonderful! Thank you!
How do I go on about printing this, what's the best option?
The printer I got at home only print A4-papers, will that be enough or do I need something bigger? Also, do you know if it's expensive to get this kind of work at some kind of photo-store?

I use legal size 50lb Matte paper to print my covers.  The better the quality of paper, the better they are going to turn out.  I believe A4 Legal size will work fine, just don't use the cheap paper you would find at a WalMart. 

I use this (Item 1514): https://www.redrivercatalog.com/category/85x14_inkjet_photo_paper.html

As far as getting it done somewhere, I know some people around here have done that and they turn out nice but I don't have any personal experience there.
