WAYNE'S WORLD

This should be the last of the $$$ licensed titles that needed a cover made.

First off, this cover is NOT completely accurate. As it stands, this is reconstructed without a scan being available. The front image was from what looked like a promo poster, so the clouds don't match what was on the box. (Thanks to CMDLineKing's RAW folder for the image)

The logo and entire back of the box were re-drawn from scratch. I just drew the handwritten font since I don't think it's a font that's available.

All in all, about 8 hour's worth of work went into this one, mainly on the logo.

Great work! At least those who have the game have a cover. I've done many placeholders using posters. Without a scan, that's the best that can be done.

Beat me to it!! :) I was planning on doing this one with the poster.. I did find a larger waynes world logo that may have been suitable without all the re-work.  Great job though!!

I love this site, but to be honest i'm surprised all the SNES, NES, and Genesis cases haven't been made yet. What program do you guys use the most to make these, I have the ones in my signature i still need and i'm thinking of making them myself

PhotoShop CS6, and Illustrator CS6 for logos.

BTW, Snake's Revenge and DuckTales have been done. Check this thread:

You will be surprised how difficult it is to pass our quality control. I think we could have had shitty covers for most of the games there are allready by now but we don't want them. ;D

Quality control must be tough, I haven't seen a new cover since way back in March.
You should make a section for the covers that are made that are waiting for approval.
This way people can use those as place holders rather than trying to search 100's of threads to find covers.
I do appreciate all the hard work everyone does  ;D

I have created a One-drive that has ALL the NES TCP Covers uploaded.. Check it out..  You can download them all at once..  It's the best of each cover that is currently available..  We are working on improving what we can, even if it doesn't pass muster with the TCP site..  Only a few left..

I wish I would of know this before I manually downloaded them all lol.
This is a great resource, I found 4 that I was missing, the rest seem to be on your list of  missing covers.

I did find some that weren't on your list but are unlicensed games.

Big Nose the Caveman
Fire Hawk
Mission Cobra
Quattro Sports
Ultimate Stuntman

If you have these please send a link.

Thanks again, you hard work is appreciated.   ;D

There have been a lot of covers uploaded since March but we do not only host NES covers as you maybe already saw. There were covers uploaded for 3DO, Saturn, SNES, Genesis, Intellivision, etc...

Yeah, the licensed set is a priority at this time.. The Unlicensed games will be next.. :)  I'll get a list for that together... I plan on making covers for the games with different colors (Blue and Black Color Dreams and Bunch games carts will have black and Blue varients)

Another one!! :)

This was a scan posted in the TCP - Missing Covers list, I created everything from scratch on the spine and back. (stealing elements from the front work and other scans I had).  Screen shots are all new, not retail accurate, but are close.  The retail spine needs to have some wording added, but I can't make out what it says.. The spine was cluttered as is, so I opted to eliminate it until I get a good / picture of the spine of the game.

Thanks!

Here are the Tengen Pac-Men from this site that I fixed (with what I fixed in parenthesis)

Tengen Licensed version (Had wrong spine logo):



Full Retail version:



Tengen Unlicensed version (was simply recolored version of above, evidenced by wrong back cover, wrong spine and official licensed seal):



Full Retail version:



Tengen Unlicensed 10th Anniversary version (spine logo is supposed to be sans-serif):



Full Retail version:
