Beleive it or not, I actually made that cover from scratch using your PAL cover and box photos found on the net! Pretty much all I had to do was re-draw that camo-ish background behind the text and re-arrange everything to fit right. So its pretty much 98% retail  :D

Figured with how stupid rare and expensive the real box is, I could just rebuild one. Turned out pretty good IMO.

Ah ok I understand. I have to say I'm a bit dissapointed now though. Thought we finally had two real retails for the site. *sigh* I have to admit though that I got my copy on an austrian flea market for 5 Euros.
2 + 3 = 23

Knocked two out today thanks to akrate's scans. Took FOREVER to get those screenshots for Lester the Unlikely from my emulator to line up with the actual ones on the box. Essentially had to play the entire game all the way through. For the project!  8)

I take it you use that grey snes box on the spine of all your SNES covers?

Chances are if these get uploaded to the site, theyll be uploaded as a retail cover. Any chance you can keep the spines true retail for the site so their 100% retail?

Is there any chance you'd be willing to do a vertical version of that cover? Please...  ::)

Originally I made them with the standard gray box so they'd be a little more uniform up on someone's shelf while still retaining the retail look but I understand exactly what you're saying. I'm more than happy to go back and redo them since it doesn't take but a few minutes per cover to make them true 100% retail boxes. I went through my covers done in the past 6 months and fixed them all, along with a good number of the ones I've uploaded to box.net.

Sure, I'll be glad to. Should be able to have it together by tomorrow evening no problem.

You do nice work Brandon. I hope you get one of the next Cover Guru spots.

Thanks, that really means a lot. I'm really passionate about this site and everything it's about and it's become a pretty big hobby of mine over the past year or so. I'm glad to help where I can.  ;D

Awesome, sounds good. I just find theres a good bunch of SNES covers filed as retail that dont have proper retail spines (a bunch with inproper legal text too...). Over the years people have been doing there own thing here and there so theres a bunch of inconsistency with our spines. Ive been trying to stay true to retail and would be cool to see others do the same so we can get more 100% retail covers. Its never too hard to customize a spine to your liking if you have your own uniformity going on.
