Title: Request Cover: Wii Play Motion
Post by: kytim89 on October 04, 2011, 10:33:42 PM
Would it be possible for someone to upload the cover of Wii Play Motion because I bought that game at a flea market without the cover and case, so I was wanting to get the cover?

I'm working on a custom for it (and the whole Wii series), should be done soon.

What exactly is your plan for these covers, Marioxb?

Yeah,  but not Chess, since it didn't come out in the US. I thought about it.. Maybe if someone provides scans.

Anyway, the idea is to use the better looking Japanese and European art for US covers, all with matching spines. You can see my, lets call them "prototypes" for Sports and Play on the site already. Pretty much as soon as I get a new charger for the laptop, they'll be done.

Will the spines feature the two guys that came over to random strangers' houses and said "Wii would like to play,"? Because that would be both funny and awesome! :D ;D

Taking me a bit longer to get a new AC adapter for my laptop, as its become a lower priority for me. My 16 yr old cousin died last week, and we had to drive 2hrs away fthen I totaled my wife and my only car. Then my job got relocated. So, it not been a good couple of weeks.

Here's a preview of what I have so far..

I figure no one would (or should?) have both Wii Fit AND Wii Fit Plus. Should I make the words "Resort" and "Motion" small like "Plus"?

I have fit and fit plus.  Picked up fit plus for £2 it think.

Really don't like it having wii written twice on the spine.  Could you try it with the game name centred and just called music,fit,play, etc?  Always hated it sayin wee wee sports. Lol.

Actually, a lot of people might.  They would have gotten Wii Fit when it came out, then picked up Wii Fit Plus when it was released for $20.  I did. :D

As did I, but then I sold Wii Fit, considering the entire game is included in the Plus version.

Also, yeah Wii Wii is weird, but the game title is not just "Sports" or "Music" it's "Wii Sports" or "Wii Music", hence the two Wii's. One for the game title, one for the system name. Just like SNES, kinda. "Super Nintendo Entertainment System", then just "Mario World" would be weird.

I don't think I wanna get rid of "Wii" altogether, but maybe I'll do a version with the word "Wii" small on top of the second word, kinda like the retail Wii Sports Resort has "Wii Sports" on top and "Resort" on the bottom.

The other thing is that, at least for me, I'm not printing a cover for "Wii Music" since it's one of those shiny covers (in the US at least), so I made the other covers match to it.

I never sell my games... but how much would you even get out of Wii Fit?  Plus was only $20 - and, as you said, included everything in the original... so I can't imagine someone paying much more than $10 for it...
Title: Re: Request Cover: Wii Play Motion
Post by: marioxb on November 21, 2011, 12:01:20 AM
I think only like $4, but I don't care. I don't normally sell my games either, as long as it's a game I like and it's not a duplicate.

My guess is $0.50 at gamestop.  We have over ten copies at all times and it sells at $2.99
