Kudos to our main NES guy at the moment! :)

Very nice covers!

Cheers!  I'm glad to be able to give back to the community that's given so much to me. :)

Also, excellent cover, Lumberjack!  Didn't you post this one a while back?  I have a Baseball Stars cover printed out that I thought was from you.  ???

Okay, so I have a handful of new boxes (and some more inbound) because I'm going to try to work on getting covers for my naked games instead of picking up more games.  Right now I only have two covers done, but I'll be working on more this weekend so hopefully I'll have some more done soon.  Anyway, for now all I have is:

Section Z (FINALLY a US version ;D )

Retail



Full Retail



And another I picked up off of ebay for pretty cheap (under $10 shipped). It was a former rental and the box was basically just the front, back, and left spine stuffed into a rental case, but it was everything I needed to put together a cover for it, and considering if I had to buy an intact box it would have run me significantly more, I'm happy to finally have a cover for

Fire 'N Ice

Retail



Full Retail



It comforts me to know that the mutilated former rental box that nobody wanted will have died a hero. :D

Edit:

Conflict

Retail



Full Retail



Alpha Mission

Someone else on our forums made a retouched version of this one. I'll have to figure out who it was again and upload it to the site.


I did, I'll post it in a second.

Cheers you guys!  I knew you were waiting for Alpha Mission and Section Z, Chad, so I figured I'd get to those first. ;)

Keep 'em coming, Wolf!

Well if you insist... ;D

Addams Family
Wasn't sure on the Retail spine whether to keep the colour gradient the same as on the Full Retail (and it's not just a gradient as it's also a patterned background) but trying to do that and remove the big-assed Ocean logo proved to be fruitless, so instead I just moved the spine down as you can see in the different shots.

Pirates!
I think the PAL version of this was floating around the boards a while back but I can't seem to find it now.  At any rate, this is the US version and I gotta say, this is probably the best NES box art I've ever seen (I'd have to give a close second to Nobunaga's Ambition 2).

Thanks Sneak (and Arseen)!  Bonk's Adventure and Fire 'n Ice were two of the three games in my big to-get-covers-for list.  You took care of Bonk's so the least I could do is get Fire 'n Ice!  Now to find someone who can get us good scans for F2 and all will be right with the world! ;D

Also, I just noticed a typo on my Pirates! covers (I fixed it once but had to revert to an older save to change some stuff and forgot to re-fix it  :-X ), so if anyone has downloaded them I apologise and I'll put up fixed versions once I get home from work.

Actually never mind -- it was a quick fix and the corrected versions are now uploaded (see original post).

F2?

The common abbreviation for Flintstones: Surprise at Dinosaur Peak (a.k.a. Flintstones 2).  I know we have the PAL/Scandinavian version but we don't have the NTSC/USA version.  I'd also love to track down some scans/boxes of the other toughies I need like Bomberman II, Wayne's World, Godzilla 2, Gun Nac, Bandit Kings of Ancient China, L'Empereur, Pro Sport Hockey, etc.  Once I'm done picking up and making covers for some of the easier ones I have left I'll see if I can persuade (i.e. pay ;D ) some NA members to scan some of their less-than-minty boxes for us.  My goal by the end of next year is to have no more naked carts, so any new games I pick up will either already have covers made or I will pick up the box along with the game and make one myself. :)

Thought that just after posting. ;D

Was gonna first suggest using PAL one to make US one, but after comparing the two concluded that it would be tough.
Lot of re-drawing needed.
