LOVE the graphic design on the one you embedded. The others are pretty cool too.

Awesome isn't it :D  I can't read the Japanese, but it looked like a Rhythm Heaven nod to me...

Pretty sure it is - the style is familiar and I can read TEN in TENGOKU, but forget the rest...

Okaasan is pretty clever.

Girl vs. Girl (#14) is really well-done, looks like it could be a real game.

#34 is fun, even has a screenshot of the game.

The one you embedded reads "Fami 7 no Daibouken" = "The Big Adventure of Fami 7".  :redcart:

We should have our own Famicase exhibition on FW.  :star:

Imaginary labels for imaginary Famicom games.

This is a great showcase and I'm a fan of design, but I'm not a graphics pro or anything. I would collage some C.F. art for a weird Comix Zone influenced adventure.

Some of my favorite labels are 17 (Unexpected Friends), 52 (Doki Doki Doughnut Panic), and 111 (Others). Unexpected Friends looks like the closest we'd ever come to an 8bit Shadow of the Colossus.

I'm unsure of whether or not these entries are submitted onto a picture, or if people are actually printing them to stick onto physical carts. Is there more to the site that I'm not seeing? Looks like a contest in some manner but I can't translate.
