SHOOTING RANGE

This game is fundamentally broken. You're not guaranteed enough targets to finish the second level - there were many, many times I sat and waited but nothing appeared. Suffice to say, getting the screenshots for this game was probably the hardest aspect of this cover. The screens on both the front and back were obviously taken with a camera, so this version looks much cleaner. (they're not retail accurate) Other than the screens and the Zapper/hand, everything on this cover was rebuilt from scratch.

Typographical error and stroke outline on the Offical Seal were intentionally left on the back.

I used my Street Cop (and Rocketeer before it) to have a base with other Bandai titles, so everything should line up on the retail spines.

Unrelated bit of info: Some of the music in this game is really cool if you slow the emulator down to 50%.

Retail Custom:

It's not broken.. You have to move around the screen with the DPAD...  There were screen shots for this game uploaded to the RAW folder.. haha.. So you didn't even need to play :-P It's a pain to play, but theo nly one I didn't get was the alien at the end, found plenty of shots of that online though..

Work IN Progress,  Had fun doing the other Indiana Jones games..  Working on both Crusade Titles now..  This one will be much easier than the UBISOFT version.. I don't have a good scan on that yet..

This has been a cover requested for years. It's been on my to do list forever. I'm thrilled to see it done. Looks great to me.

thanks! After finishing the tengen Temple of doom, I realized all but 1 Indiana Jones covers were missing or needed quality updates..

Used Wolf almighty cover as basis, but rehacked and found the matching stills to replace the cover art altogether and hopefully give it a little upgrade.

Found a PC Game copy of the Fisher Price Firehouse Rescue game in my basement.  The fireman was of MUCH higher resolution than the NES Box or Cart..  Here is an upgraded version!! If someone thinks they can improve the image, just let me know and I'll give you the RAWs for the Fireman. 

On top of the upgraded image, I replaced the screenshots in the back of the box with better ones..
I've linked the IMGUR Samples the full one is on the TCP onedrive.. ->http://1drv.ms/1mFT44K

TARGET: RENEGADE

The game itself is tough, but surprisingly fun. I'd always written this off as a crap game, but I'm glad I got to play it a bit. Will likely hang onto this one for the collection.

Back was rebuilt from scratch. All elements of the front (except for the guy) were re-done. Screens are not retail accurate. An easy cover to do that I knocked out in about an hours' time.

Retail Custom:

My time to work on these has been cut down severely, but I'll keep working on stuff when I can. Might be down to a cover a week.

Thanks, looks great. Don't worry,  the important thing is to finally make those covers, not how fast you do them    ;)

Nice! I have about 6 or 7 NES games left that don't have a cover yet. This is one of them. Looks awesome. Thanks!
