FALSE ADVERTISING!!! In all seriousness though, think you could cook u p a custom that removes the 3D glasses thing? It's a minor gripe but I keep my radically tublar 3-D glasses in my Rad Racer case, not 3-D World Runner.

End result from a day of recovery with nothing to do. Wasn't sure if anyone was working on this one or not.

Lol, and I thought I  was OCD about these covers.

Sure, that's no problem at all, check your PM.

Thanks Brandonh1091, at first glance on the screen the cover looks good, the front image might need cleaning as do the 3 yellow of 3-D texts.

There is direct link to my box scan, which might hel with the front images:

Peach Waffle, your request in progress of completion, just a minute while my other computer boots up.

Here, two scans extra flat (DW3 Back V2 and DW3 Back V3):

Hi!
Here comes Probotector 2 - PAL version:



Maybe i will convert the back into the other Konami Box art - the one with the grey bars like on Probotector 1 or Castlevania boxes.

I'm guessing that's the PAL version of Super C? Why was Super C renamed I wonder? was the "C" enough to justify worrying about referencing the Iran–Contra affair?

I'm not 100% sure but I'd say: Blame Germans, as if I remember correct they had law rthat you could not make games where you shoot people, thus the contra games where turned into Probotector games with robots instead of people.

EDIT: From Wikipedia:
In Europe and Oceania, the NES version of Contra was retitled Probotector, where the original main characters, as well as some of the enemy characters, were replaced with robotic counterparts.[6] This was done to circumvent the BPjM's censorship laws in Germany, which prohibits the sales of violent video games to minors. Subsequent Contra games for the NES, Game Boy, Super NES, and Mega Drive followed suit, which were all released in the PAL region under the Probotector title as well and featured similar modifications.

Absolutely correct! :-) The first game which had the real name "Contra" was the PS1 Verison "Contra - Legacy Of War".

For my opinion "our" Probotector covers and designs are better than the original.
The robots look just better than the soldiers... :-) This is a game where censorship did something good. hehe

Maybe someone should create Probotector 3 out of Contra Force too.

I would if I'd time and skill, if I understand correctly the job would not be too hard, just swap commando sprites with robot sprites (and maybe some other alterations too) in spite bank (or what is called).

No problem!

I'll give your scan a look when I get home and see if I can't clean it up a little further. Anythings got to look better than that cart scan of mine, haha. Thanks a lot.  :)
