Scan Requests (label, cover art, manual, box, etc.)

[JohnnyBlaze]

Anyone have a scan of the Blue Disk comic that came with later disk systems and the manual for the Disk System. I have one in box, but it didn't come with papers. I have the original comic for the Disk System as it was in English.

Does anyone have a manual for Arkanoid? I'm wondering if the Japanese manual mentions the continue code, because the American one doesn't and it seems like it's almost impossible to beat without it.

I had my friend make a universal case cover for me for AKUMAJO DENSETSU what you guys think unfortunately we did not have the best images to start off with so we worked with what we had 

[P]

Maybe it's just my imagination but it looks a bit squished. Some of the text is totally unreadable.

You're right the back of the box scan was not very clear who ever scanned it, scanned it in a low dpi and the front is squished a tad but its the best image I could find the universal game case are bigger than the official boxes so the image has to be expanded some. I guess someone who is really talented with Photoshop could do better.

I think it's a good job - but I'm not keen on the universal strip approach places like the cover project use - you don't need it for these covers.

Like I said it's good, but if you took the pulseline off you could use the original art without squishing it. 
The pulseline itself doesn't make sense as the game isn't by Nintendo, or from the Famicom Mini selection, or from the inital pulseline catalogue.

But it looks nice. I made a theme fopr a PSP emulator with it before for the same reasons

Yeah I agree with you as well. The problem is a filler is needed because the art's scan size. I'm considering ordering some European DS cases as they can be modded to fit famicom carts really well and I would not have to stretch the art as much

I wish I could help but I'm without photoshop at the moment.  What if I found some higher res images, would these help?

Jap-Sai can be a good place to look for images, especially high-res logos.  I think these would be ok to use as a base, if I had a mint new copy I'd scan it for you but mine's quite well used now.

Thanks  I actually used the middle scan from that site the real issue is the back I may try to use the top image and re-do the front as well with that top image I guess he got from a poster or something the only issue is the logo's are in the wrong location to replicate the original front cover it would take a little more work but I think its possible.

I could use the american version for the back as there is a perfect scan for that but I've been trying to avoid that if possible.I'm thinking of asking my friend to just shrink the front and back image and put some sort of grey border and get rid of the red pulse line stuff 

[fcgamer]

I think the art looks nice, though maybe a higher resolution would be nice.  Think the pulse line looks okay too.  Are we trying to go for authenticity here, or unification?  If for authenticity, then it has to go for sure, but if that is the case, why not just collect the original boxes to begin with?  If going for unity, then I think the pulse line would look nice on all of the custom art for the cases, if you did this for all your games.
