Sweet ! Thanks a lot!!
That Parodius cover is really high quality; I'm tempted to create a vector version (when time allows).

Was that all the games in the Parodius series?

I really like the Parodius series, both the games and the funny artwork.
There are many versions on different systems; you can see all covers and other info on this page on the Hardcoregaming101 website.

@udb23 No problem man. Glad I could help out.

When I put my spreadsheet out, you'll be able to see the resolution I'm working with for all of the boxes and carts. I'm just a few games shy of having 2,000 games for the NES and FDS now, and every single game has a box and cart image.

I'm somewhat familiar with the Parodius series. I've done extensive testing for many different systems over the years, so I know it pops up on quite a few of them. I was just wondering if there were any more NES images that you were looking for in that series. I did a search for parodius and those were the only two that came up, but I thought maybe you knew of others that didn't have that in the title name.

@darknior Sent you a PM at the other place man. Not sure if you check there often anymore. :)

@darknior @Used2BeRX Thanks both !
I found some good res cover scans of the Super Famicom Parodius games. They still need some restoration (added to my long long to do list..) but have good detail.
If interested just let me know.

When i will have finish the NES i will work on SNES and after Genesis.
My full cover set is done for them, but i must restore some of them, change some, and create some hack/Unreleased covers too ;)
I will create a new thread for it.

Like i already do it for 3DO, NEC PCEngine CD and NEC Super Grafx if you see them.

@used2berx well done.

[darknior]

Please @Used2BeRX & @UDb23 remove your SNES cover from this thread.
I don't want users that search for NES covers found SNES one :(
I move them in a new thread with a part of my new work on SNES.
Thanks

Yes it is what i think about ;)

My new custom for a HACK i love <3

DuckTales 2 (USA) [two Players Hack v1.2]

@darknior @Used2BeRX
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

[UDb23]

@darknior Interesting; was not aware.

• Final REMASTER, i found a better Dracula head, and change the sky.
  Castlevania (USA) (Rev A) [T-Fr by Akira v1.0]
  

• A different cover for Castlevania 2 on NES while i don't know how is the real one ! I'm not sure if is it better or not ?
  Castlevania II - Simon's Quest (USA) [T-Fr by Generation IX v1.0]-alt
  

• I have found a new artwork i mix with my cover, and now the result is near perfect :)
  Castlevania III - Dracula's Curse (Japan) [T-Fr by Generation IX v1.0]
  

• My cover for this excellent HACK :)
  Castlevania - Chorus of Mysteries (USA) [Hack by Dr. Mario, Optomon v1.1]
  

I don't have test any other to know if it exist some really cool hack of Castlevania. Made like a real PRO game.

[Used2BeRX]

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.

[darknior]

Thanks

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 ?

[Used2BeRX]

@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. :)
