Title: Mr.Splash! GET! (merge thread please)
Post by: L___E___T on September 29, 2011, 09:32:02 am
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but is this an official label or something aftermarket from Tea4Two or similar?

I said I'd upload everything I found, well, here it is folks:

TOO LATE - LINK IS DEAD!

- Mods -
let me know if that's illegal etc. - it's not been a problem anywhere else and it's not exactly a commercial game but I respect the board of course.

That's where it's from actually, but I wanted to check.  Looked like a good quality label but on closer inspection it's probably a sticky deskjet job ;)

Thanks for the translation!  Here is your prize:

By the way the Mr.Splash! ROM was released (I didn't realise).
If peeps are interested I can package everything up I found today and post a link..?
Hi-res labels etc. to make your own repro from, which I'll definitely be doing soon!

Hi y'all, thought I'd upload the label here for quick view:

This is full-size, but I can't remember the print settings and of course it's just a flat .PNG
I have a full .PSD to upload in a minute, as well as a vector file.  I don't think this is available online anymore, as I can't get onto the creator's site.
There was never a box template file, if I remember correctly - I don't have one saved.

Interesting, so was this their Famicom at one point then?

It still is as far as I know, but ProjectF is STILL offline - so I am not sure what they're doing lately.  Maybe they moved sites and I'm unaware of the new one.

I know someone who went in ProjectF headquarters and met Mr. Polygon (designer of Mr Splash)  as well with the programmer in February.


Looking at pictures:

Dunno where you got the readme in ROM pack but I see it's translated from French with some mistakes:

That's OmakeBooks' 2nd hand description, courtesy of Google Translate.  Engrish adds to the charm, but you can get the basic idea anyway :)

That's amazing that someone you know got to meet him, maybe you can ask if he knows any extra info etc?

It's the dude that made the contest (the owner of Omaké Books) - Where I got my copy.

He recorded a video of them working on the PAL version of the game:

Hey L_E_T, did you mean to include the "KAMMING selection" folder with the 151 roms in it in your upload? Nice stuff in there.  :coin:

I hate to ask, but can someone upload it somewhere else? For whatever reason, it doesn't let me download from there. :(

@Cheetah if you want the rom only, go on skype.

Also to L_E_T: "OmakeBooks Mr.Splash gray cart" is actually the prototype of the PAL version, owned by the creator of Omaké Books.

I much prefer the grey cart - I personally hate the RetroZone clear/translucent carts but at least they show of the lovely innards.

Sorry I didn't upload anywhere else, Oron is usually best because links stay up.  The ROM itself is super small, but I can't attach to the post so I thought I'd chuck some extras in for good measure.  I stumbled across Kamming's site in the same thread over on NA but it had links to viruses.  Saving folks the trouble with going there.  They're mostly hacks etc.

Should've linked to the Super Bat Puncher ROM I found too, haven't got round to it yet (unless it's in there).

I've never played it, but I agree that it's always looked rather boring.

I've never played it, but it looks like a lot of fun to play in multiplayer with beers.  I like the game design a lot. 
I just got caught up in te hype though and have wanted to be able to play the game for AGES.
