If anybody has a front page scan (including spine) of the Zelda 1 manual (FDS) that'd be swell. It might've been posted in this thread somewhere but most (if not all) photobucket links no longer work. :link:
Thanks!

I believe the spine is blank, but you're in luck as there is a decent scan of the manual I found:

Spoiler
Step 1:
Search Google for "Zelda FDS manual". 

Step 2:
Click the first result.

Step 3:
Click the first hyperlink thereafter.

Step 4:
Enjoy the scans.

Thanks a lot for the scans! I think the spine just had "ゼルダの伝説" on it with the usual famicom mascot above it. That's what Link's Adventure looks like. Not really a problem though, I can probably just scan the insert inside the plastic case.
Thanks again! ;D

I have one at home I'll try and check for you.  Sorry for my facetious link, it irked me that it was the first result is all ;)

Does anyone have a box and manual scan of Splatterhouse: Wanpaku Graffiti?

Does anyone have a scan of the manual for Wizardry I or II (Knight of Diamonds)? I'm curious to know if these are different than the US manuals. The art style in Wizardry games in Japan seemed to diverge completely from the PC games. I'm wondering if that started with the first Famicom game? (The NES manual has a noticably more series look to it than the Apple II, which had a lot of tongue-in-cheek comics).

Hey,

I found the scans of the gimmick! manual, but I'm not sure with the pages order.

If anyone has a gimmick! manual and could take pics of the pages, it would help :)

Anyone can help me with a high-res scan of Dracula 2 card for FDS?  I can't find a high-res one online, nor a high-res one of the key art in its whole.

I can't scan the handbill because it has writing all over it, so that won't work either :(

I have the Disk Writer manual, but it's all in black and red...

The NES art has the silver Konami stripes all down the sides, so otherwise I'm lost.

If nobody has it I'll have to try and buy a copy to scan.

I also found this which could be helpful for a lot of requests - just raw uploads in high-res:

I don't know if they are good enough but lots of scans can be found here: http://www.vgmuseum.com/mrp/cv2/game-castlevaniasq.htm

Hmm but the page seems to have trouble loading. You can get the files directly here:

Thanks P, I just came from there - it has a lot of good files, but no high-res Dracula 2 FDS front card scan :(

Hmm yeah the diskcard is scanned together with the disk and plastic case. You could maybe make something out of the file "cv2-offart8.jpg" and add the logo manually. The logo could be taken from "cv2-offart9.jpg" and use the pictures of the front and back as a reference. Wasn't there a template for FDS obi somewhere on the forum?

Oh I don't need it for an obi, I need it for a cartridge label.  The problem is, the main art image is cropped - the only place it exists in full uncropped is actually on the FDS inlay card, but there isn't a good scan of it anywhere online.  It needs to be super hi-res, the scans/images I have found found are small.

It's ok, I'll design the template for now, then get the game later and scan the inlay card - I can quickly swap it out afterwards.

Oh didn't notice it was cropped!

Yeah hi-res scans are very hard to find since it takes up bandwidth. Maybe you could share yours if you get it. I have some decent scans I could share too. I don't get why some people upload scans of whole manuals with such a low resolution that it's totally unreadable.

I don't have a copy of it in just yet, other than the Disk Writer version, but it's on the list and I'll share a scan when I can get hold of it, sure.

Could you link me to a low res version of what you are exactly after?  I may be able to help scan one at hi res.
