Are there vertical SNES covers for Zelda Parallel Worlds and BS Zelda Map 1&2?

There is another that is more similar to the BS zeldas, I'll link it when I find it.

And I think one that has the gloomy Master Sword pedestal.

On the subject of BS F-Zero 2 does anyone have any good artwork they can give me to use? I can't seem to locate anything decent or in a high resolution to use with google, any ideas?

Here is my suggestiojn for the back text:

Are you ready for the ultimate challenge? Your opponents are waiting.

After the first F-Zero tournament the best drivers are called to participate in the ultimate challenge, the infamous Ace League!
Four of the best veteran drivers accept the challenge and hop in to their bettered cars.

F-Zero 2 is the sequel to the popular Super Nintendo racing game F-Zero. F-Zero 2 was never released in America, or even on a cartridge for that matter.

The downloadable five-track special edition of the original F-Zero was only available on the Super Famicom add-on Satelavision.

Contains 5 new tracks in new Ace League that are tough for even the veterans:
- Mute City 4
- Big Blue 2
- Sand Storm 1
- Silence 2
- Sand Storm 2.

 Features Grand Prix and Practice Mode

Fixed a couple of typos.  I would consider some re-wording (italics).  Just seems a little forced :/

Thanks.

I don't know is the word "ends" needed. I kinda like it without.

battered = bettered. That was not  a typo, I meant that the best drivers took their upgraded cars to the league (cars are differently named).Shall we go with upgraded or enhanced instead?

other orrections acceted. ;D
Even though, not sure does the "contains tracks" sentence have to be so long?
And instead th lines red bullet pointsshould be used.

Without "ends", or some other verb, the sentence doesn't read well.  It needs a coma at the very least.

I thought you meant battered, as in worn, broken down, etc.  You know, like from all the abuse they received on the track?  Bettered isn't a word that we use very often in the US, so it does sound off (to me). But that's more of a cultural difference than anything. It makes sense, just might not work for all English speaking regions.

With the last sentence you sort of have the same issue as the 1st. It's a little stunted.

Contains 5 new tracks in new Ace League that are tough for even the veterans:

There's no reason to use "new" twice in that sentence, and if we did do it that way, then there should at least be a "the" before the 2nd new. As in "the new Ace..."

The rest of what I changed/added isn't fixing any grammar issues or anything like that, I just thought it read better that way :)

OK, English is only my second language, so I'm bound to make some mistakes.

I've been thinking the first sentence as a whole, and we need to explain or give better reason how the best drivers suddenly have new cars.
I think there are 4 options, among which we have to choose before rewriting the first sentence.:

1. The new league happens so soon that the drivers have yo use their secondary cars.
2. The new league happens let's say 10 years after the original, so everyone have new cars.
3. New drivers are offsprings of the originals.
4. New drivers are completely new ones.

Okay im happy with this effort, I wrote the text in a style I find suits. Due to a lack of good artwork, I used an image from F-Zero GX for the front cover.

Yeah, there is like NO F-Zero art out there.  It's a total freakin' bummer.

Wasn't there anime serie? or was it manga?

Funny that there isn't any art from there.

Looks pretty good, but let's run it through a spelling/grammar check:

I'm too tired to go full blown grammar Nazi right now, so you're on your own for punctuation and sentence structure.

1. i'll give you a complete oversight
2. i'm English and so is the language so I use English not the American version of English (even though both spellings of the word mean the exact same thing)
3. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/practise

I'll re-up it later
