--- End quote ---
That's all the ones that I had, but I actually do have a few more en route that I ordered last week. They are:
F-117A (man, it seems like I've always got one of the flight sim games in every batch ;D )
Tecmo NBA Basketball
Adventures of Tom Sawyer
Defender II
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (Licensed/Mindscape version)
Battle Tank
Silk Worm
After that, I'm going to run into a rather large rut since the rest of the games I'll need covers for, which will actually be an even 40, are going to be the ones with rather pricey boxes or boxes that simply aren't available. I have a few easy/cheapos left (are you SURE your Othello box didn't grow legs and go walkabout, Arseen? ;D ), though, so I can probably knock that down to about 20-25 before I run into ones like Bomberman II, Godzilla 2, Gun-Nac, Cowboy Kid, etc. Any game I don't already have that doesn't have a cover for it I'll make sure to pick up a box when I pick up the game so I won't have to do all this backtracking.
Edit:
Also, you guys wouldn't happen to have a box for Rescue: The Embassy Mission would you? The one on the site (appropriately listed as custom) is missing the text in the background. I figure this is a fairly common game so it's likely someone might have it lying around but might not be scanning it because there's one already up on the site.

Thanks wolf for all those covers!!!!!!!!
A yes and there you go. Box is a little beat up though.

WolfAlmighty:
Cheers, tik! :)
And thanks for the scans! I'll see what I can do with those. I'll have to see how different the PAL version is from the US version.
Edit:
Two I've gotten around to so far:
Defender II - Didn't I see someone else who did this one before? Could have sworn...

I've also gotten Silkworm, but, the bottom-right-front of the box had some rather persistent ex-rental stickers on it so I don't know if I can make a cover out of it or not. I'll scan the front of the cart and see if I can piece together a workable cover out of it. Luckily the part that's obstructed is just the seal (which I replace anyway) and some of the rocks so maybe there's a chance. *crosses fingers* 8)

Hey guys, I recently retouched a couple of covers I needed for my games and wanted to share them with the community. Tried my best to emulate Wolf's quality taking the time to recreate the back of the box snapshots as accurate as possible (a-la Shenske).
Ninja Gaiden (Retail)
Ninja Gaiden (TCP Style)
Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! (Retail)
Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! (TCP Style)
Enjoy!
WolfAlmighty:
Looks sweet! Some games are fairly easy to recreate screenshots for, like Zelda, but I know Ninja Gaiden couldn't have been too easy. Although on the plus side at least there's only one screenshot of a live action sequence.
Finished three more in the last couple of days:
Adventures of Tom Sawyer (and yes, those darker blue strokes are part of the original artwork...I'm guessing this was originally a watercolour painting)

Battle Tank - It's funny, when I first played Star Trek: TNG on NES, the gameplay seemed so familar and when I checked and saw that it was made by Absolute it hit me: it's essentially the same game as Battle Tank.

F-117A Stealth Fighter
