              Have a look at Nintandbox, to me the best site for quality Nintendo (NES and SNES) boxart (300dpi scans) and manuals.

                Yes i know, they have some good covers, but only official and we can found them on other site .

                • Only 374 games on NES and it is better with 675 on SNES
                • No cover for NON official games.

                On this site i love and DL all the Game n Watch covers. That is a cool and hard to find stuff :p

                      Love it man. Keep it up. I'm going to be using quite a few of these in my collections and also using them to make cart images when I do.

                      I'm not sure about the Castlevania II image. There was no cart ever released, and it was only on the Disk System. You do have the "FF" on the image, so at least that part seems right. That new image you made looks like it came from a promotional poster instead of an official box. All of the FDS boxes were square shaped, so anything that is a rectangle would be either non-boxart or a fan made boxart.

                        Yes i know, and i remove the pub text, but what do you prefer and will use ? The first white cover or this second red ?

                          @darknior Could you post them back to back again? I've got a crappy old PC here and it's really hard to try to even find your old post on that to compare the two. :)

                              That's hard to say man. Visually speaking, I prefer the red one. Even with the text on the bottom it still looks great and nobody but somebody who knew that there was no original Japan cart release and who's seen the actual poster for the FDS game before would know that wasn't from an original box.

                              I'd say since you're going for the same size and shape for all of your titles and you're not concerned about accurately representing the original display with a true proportioned box art of the FDS cover, I'd go with the Red version. It's a lot more visually appealing.

                                    I've lost many time to search for a good stuff to remaster Getsu Fuuma Den and i found nothing i like :(
                                    Some will ask me so many work to remaster, some is a flyer i don't really like ...
                                    The problem was this game has a COVER with Hologram ! Two image in one.

                                    I lost some hours during 3 days to find some thing to work and finally I was lucky :)

                                    Like we can see on this photo, the cover is empty, there is only a drawing.
                                    Finally i have made a mix the COVER and the NOTICE to make it look like other games.

                                        @darknior Nice dude. That hologram was a problem.

                                        Do you have these in a higher definition originally? A lot of these I have images that are much larger than what you're posting here. I was hoping you edited the larger ones and then downsized them for use on the Pi3.

                                          Like i write before, some time i have, but not always ... and i don't stoke them, i use and delete them.
                                          These jackets are dirty, with bad colors, stripes, corners damaged, sometimes labels, advertising texts etc ...
                                          I can only deliver you my stuff like i post it here. Sorry, nothing more.
