I know this box has been done more than a few times, but I got the game from TheNesDump the other day (I LOVE IT) and I just couldn't help myself. I decided to use those short few seconds at the begining of Zelda where the day turns to night before the story screen as the backgroud. I love the way this turned out. (Although I still think that Spencer's custom version is hands down the best). It is unlikely I'll do the map and manual, with two other versions out there from well respected members, I'd rather not step on anyone's toes or take sales away from them. So here it is!

If anyone is LOOKING for certain repro/homebrews, I have a running repro company thread going as well as a lot of extras myself which include Limited Editions as well. I'm also free to help answer questions and point people in the right direction so never hesitate to ask! Here is the current list of repro companies. Please let me know if I need to update it:

No seal of quality or other bits of small text on the box?

Other than that the artwork choice is very good.

Damn Guntz, you're tough! Just kidding, I definitely appreciate the constructive criticism, it is always helpful.

I was going to do seals other bits as well on the front. But since the rocks and waterfall sit so low I didn't want to take away from that. That really is my favorite part about that box (as a kid I always loved that part in the beginning when it would turn to night). Even a small nes seal or something just didn't look right to me when I was designing it. If someone is interested in this box and they would like that, I can easily add them upon request. The rear has the seal, a barcode, and some other small text for that "original feel."

Thanks to everyone for the kind words!! I love reading your responses!

Well, honestly the front of the box looks naked without a seal of quality at the very least, let alone the lack of "Nintendo Entertainment System" or other such bits of text. In fact, the box even has a bootleg-ish look because the front cover is barren of such text...

Just my opinion though. If other people like naked box porn, to each his/her own.

NES Boxes (alternate art and repros)

Hey there, i have been working on making NES boxes. i have found a friend who can do photo shop like a wizard and reprint better quality boxes than the originals. I am interested in making many different versions or replicating the original art work. For more info email [email protected] - Photos and image previews soon to come!
