SNES Reproductions

[Daria]

i still cant see the point of destroying a perfectly good game just to be able to use it as a donor cart to play a rom on the hardware

I gutted a copy of Bandit Kings of Ancient China to make "Just Breed." Never regret a moment of it.

It's not like people are using NWC carts to make these repros. There's enough copies to go around.

Hey there
does someone still have that secret of mana 2 label for us carts?

[homerjs]

damn nobody?

[HappehLemons]

I've made a few labels for some repos

Here's a PSD I made if anyone wants to work off of it. Everything is on a different layer so it should be easy to edit.

Is this what you want?

[homerjs]

sry machinegex, i am looking for the real pic with higher resolution, urs is the compressed one for the board preview.
@ Happehlemons i will have a look.
thx for your answers

[MachineGex]

Did you click on the picture? It opens up much bigger and should print out just fine. I am sure you did, but just making sure.

[homerjs]

yes i did its the same one like on the first page. 72 kb, i think it would look kind of crappy
with a ink jet i guess it wouldnt make any difference, but printed out professionary in the store it makes a big difference.

So what happened? Chomping at the bit to play Star Ocean, Secret of Mana 2, Terranigma, et cetera but I don't want to pay the exorbitant amount that the SNES site previously mentioned is trying to pawn off. $250? No thank you.

[mobiusclimber]

Would anyone be interested in trading me some repro games for my retro games?

If you're champing at the bit, you can just emulate them like everyone else does, you know.

Technically both spellings are correct.

Hey homerjs,

If you find where to get the Mana label or some other SNES high quality label graphics let me know. Thanks

[mavrick]

I dunno if you would want such a common game's label but this is one of about 2 dozen games i have to remake labels for due to previous owners not taking care of them. When I opened this games case there was a cockroach inside it, long dead. Eww.



I can provide a 300dpi image of it for those with higher end printers, and you'll have to round your own corners.

[Coldguy]

Is there a list of games you could do and what are the prices for them?

Ditto!

If they all look as nice as that Final Fantasy V cart a few posts up, I would buy a ton of games from you. Can you do Hamlin No Violin? Also, is it possible to buy japanese famicom version of the game I want and you turn it into a english one? That would be sweet if I could buy a japanese copy with original label, manual, and box, and just have the roms replaced to play in english. Since Japanese and English SNES/Super Famicom consoles use the same lockout chip, I could just cut the tabs on my console and play them.

I was wondering if someone could make a NTSC version label for the game Mobile Suit Gundam Wing: Endless Duel for the Super Nintendo. The game never came out to the US but I would like a US formatted cover for the game. I want the cover to be like any normal US SNES label with the fat black borders and the SNES red logo font on the bottom right, the game label in the middle, etc..

I want the picture of the game to be like the Japanese version but with English font and by using the official English Mobile Suit Gundam Wing logo and the subtitle Endless Duel in the same font shown on the cover of the Super Famicom version. I'm not sure If I'm allowed to post what the JP label and the logo looks like but they are easily found on google. The game itself in Japan is called New Mobile Report Gundam W: Endless Duel. In the US though, Bandai changed it to Mobile Suit Gundam Wing: Endless Duel.

I appreciate this so, so much. I hope to hear from someone soon. =D

Your specifications are so exacting that it sounds like you won't be happy with anything someone comes up with.

You could figure out how to do it yourself, y'know. It's not that difficult - just a little time consuming, as it would be even for someone experienced.

[Darko]

I would buy a translated repro of Endless Duel in a heartbeat. That game is awesome.

In all honesty I kinda have reservations about the whole "donor cart" thing too.

Especially when you're talking about Bandit Kings of Ancient China. You might as well say you ate a box of Nintendo Cereal today!

That's kind of my point, most donor carts are dirt commons. I actually converted something uncommon and am still very pleased with the game I got in return. I have a reproduction of a game I love in return for sacrificing a game that would sit on my shelf unplayed. Regardless of how I use the cart it was already out of circulation for everyone else.

[General_Murdock]

Thanks HappehLemons for the FF template.

I'm using it to create a Daze Before Christmas label. It's hard because of the lack of the images of this game on the web.

Anybody has any image of the supposed to be original box with a better resolution ? The only one available is from snescentral.

Any image would be great.

[Edmond Dantes]

Yeah I know, but dammit, there was a time where I would've killed to own a copy of Bandit Kings of Ancient China.

But in general I just don't like the whole destroying one game for another thing. I'd be more into the repro scene if there was a way to do it without having to lose an existing game in the process.

That's easy... Buy the original and repro that. You've got the original cartridge (a Just Breed cart will still be a Just Breed cart, just in English), there's much less work to be done in order to enable all the features and the original label still works.

That, and some games simply can't be repro'd any other way.

If I'm to choose between sacrificing an American MMC5 cart (Gemfire or Bandit Kings, basically) or a Japanese Just Breed cart (which isn't exactly cheap, either-it was a late-release Famicom game, after all), I'm going to kill the US cart. Just Breed is that much better, IMO.
