Donkey Kong (World) (Rev A)

Duck Hunt (World)

Excitebike (Japan, USA)

Gumshoe (USA, Europe)

[darknior]

I have create this one, because it doesn't exist any European version :(

Gyromite (Europe)
.

Hogan's Alley (World)

Holy Diver (Japan)

Ice Climber (USA, Europe)

Kung Fu (Japan, USA)

Lagrange Point (Japan)

These are excellent.

Are you taking requests at all? Looking for a remastered Armadillo.

@livefastcyyoung

Here's the best one I could find. Maybe darknior could tweak it?

@darknior Hey bud,

I was wondering if you or Gilles could do me a huge solid?

Years back, Gilles made "Generic Boxarts" for all of the systems. These were used for any games we couldn't find artwork for at the time. All these years later there is actually a lot more artwork available, so we really don't need any for official releases at all, but we still need them for categories like Pirates, Unlicensed, Homebrew and a few others. Unfortunately, the images that Gilles made were only around 292x400 pixels, which was fine on an SD XBox, but won't hold up well against all of these larger and improved images we're going to be using for our new sets.

I was wondering if you guys could redo some of these for the systems as I work on them. It's taken me about 6 months of near full-time work just doing the NES, so I don't think I'm going to be pressuring you too much about it :)

Here's the ones we're using for the NES now:

Here's the ones for the FDS. Just a few adult games and the Famimaga collection:

They don't have to be the same images, but just maintain the same feel. I really like the images that Gilles used for these, but they might not be easy to find, or in high enough quality to use for larger images. Actually, if you guys would do this for me, just let me know and I'll see if I can find the images so you don't have to waste time looking for them.

Also, I know you like making the images only 700 pixels, but I was hoping you'd make them larger for me? I really am trying to build this new collection with the future of tech in mind and don't want to have to be asking somebody to upgrade these again in 10 years. :)

If you guys do this for me, you're upgrading the presentation for around 200-250 games by just making 7 Boxes.

Thanks man.

Armadillo.

Thanks for this game i don't know, and thanks RX for the Cover, it looks excellent.
I will do it too :)

@Used2BeRX i understand and i will try to found time to do them, but i 'm already overbooked lol
NES covers, Dapphne set + covers, ScummVM engine test and game vonfiguration, PSP source code fix ... i have only two hands lol
I write it in my head for later.

@chelochelini2014 said in My Remastered NES Covers:

Maybe he can help you, because his cover is excellent :)
I like the PIRATE SERIES logo on bottom :p

[Used2BeRX]

@chelochelini2014

Wow dude. That's awesome. Did you make that? I'd be honored to feature your work in the set if you did.

I wanted to get as close as possible to the originals I posted, but I really love what you did there. I agree with @darknior that the "Pirate Series" logo is great.

I'm going replace the old one from my collection tonight and add that for any games that need it. Right now, 46 out of the 60 Pirate games in the collection are without actual covers, so you just upgraded the Box Art for 46 games. :)

Thanks again!

EDIT:

I just added them and realized that I also had 7 Pirate carts that have been translated as well, so unless I add more games that single box just upgraded 53 boxes in the set. :)

[chelochelini2014]

Yes, I take part of the lunch hour to check the forum and make that cover to colaborate, i used some internet resources, here is another , images is from world heroes screenshot

[chelochelini2014]

Edited: new cover

[Used2BeRX]

@chelochelini2014 Awesome man! These are excellent!

One thing though... Could you change the "Pirate Series" for the Prototype image? I wonder what a "Prototype Series" icon should look like?

It's fine for the Pirate Fighting games since they're Pirates that I just split off into a different category because there are so many VS Fighters that came out of China.

Maybe for the Unlicensed box the "Unlicensed Series" icon could be a sillohette of a drivers license with the "no smoking"/"ghostbusters" sign around it? :)

I'll let you know how many games these upgrade when I integrate them. I might not be able to do that until tomorrow, but know that this work is greatly appreciated!

[darknior]

@chelochelini2014 great work :)
If you use Photoshop, how to you do to enlarge your little NES image, without smooth and with all the pixel perfect and square ?
I search for this option.

[Used2BeRX]

@chelochelini2014 I integrated the Pirate Fighting boxes for another 18 games upgraded. A total of 71 games with two boxes so far. I'm likely adding another 18 Pirates and 4 more Pirate Fighters as long as they work after testing so that total will be up to 89 games if I can't find any legit box artwork for them!

Thanks again man. I hope you don't mind doing a few more. These look so great.
