Poll-Want N64 Mini Boxes?
Shangyou:
Omg I totally support this!! The mini boxes look great and save a lot of space at the same time!

First of all, thank you for the praise, I do appreciate it :)
As I've stated quite a few times, cardstock does work but if you have acess to label paper i would definately recommend using that. The corners of the box are much more flush and sturdier. Very nice write up ShoothimNow, i think you are generating quite a lot of excitement towards this little project. FYI - letter size cardstock is not necessary, the entire mini box fits on a normal 8.5 x 11 size paper.
Just giving you guys a heads up, every UGC N64 cover i make i will more than likely make a full-size box and a mini box along with it (as long as i have the resources to do so). I like giving people the option of how they would like their covers to look as long it is consistant.
I in no way want this idea to replace using UGCs. They are far superior for the time being and in the long run plus much easier to create inserts for. Cardboard simply doesn't last in the long run, I myself am just going to put the miniboxes inside the UGC w/ cover. That should help keeping the box in good shape and keeping all games in UGC uniform.

I guess you really like my covers ;D Also, I've been working off an on for a few months recreating a SuperMarioLand2 cover too :)

I forgot you were the one that did the unified Pokemon spines for DS. I'm using them and I like them very much :D
Drakul:
I love the idea but I would only print them if the cardboard was of the original size.

I thought of this myself way back when I was scanning all those N64 covers I submitted. I even scanned some of the tabs etc. However, I didn't like the idea of glueing paper onto cardboard and I didn't want to spend a fortune in ink using a straight through inkjet printer so just stuck with the UGC's. Great to see someone else thinking the same way though ....
