What's wrong with Uncle Tusks FF2 and FF3 boxes? Or do you want them in foil?

I would hate to see duplication of effort.


Just saw this now.  While I think Uncle Tusks FF2 and FF3 boxes are great, personaly I would like to see a full package with the manuals and maps like nesrepro did with Outlands. I still feel like something is missing with just a box and cart, especially with an RPG.


As a hardcore repro collector, I personally love seeing the variations on games.  I know that even though I may have three different copies of the same repro (due to variations) I will STILL hunt down any other variations that pop up.  I think that timewalkgames.com brings a new, different, approach to the repro world.  NOONE is doing the foil boxes/games right now and he is making the conscious effort to bring something new to gamers, not take away from anyone else.

I personally have every variation of UncleTusk's stuff and will continue to buy his to support him.  I also pick up the special stuff Joe at thenesdump.com comes out with.

All nesrepro is trying to do is bring a new approach to some of our favorite repros.  If you check his video on the CIB Sweet Home, he used ALL the profits from the Outlands project to help get better equipment to make his custom repros nicer.

All I see is a video game collector and store owner who wants to bring something new to the video game collecting world.  There aren't many repro guys out there and we can use as many as we can get.

Thanks for the hard work, I can't wait to see what else you come up with!


Thanks for the compliments. I consider doing this more a hobby than anything else. I started just making these for myself and I'm really happy people are enjoying them.

I think the NES repro community is very well served. I have spoken a little bit with UncleTusk via PM and he seems like a really goody guy. He also has a really solid printing background so I'm sure his boxes are particularly top notch. I particularly like his smb/duckhunt box. I wish I had come up with that lol. I think the idea here is for all of us to bring something special in are products and I know there is lots of great stuff for all of us to work on.

Joe has such an awesome selection and is willing to make games that are frankly, a pain in ass to make (FF3 comes to mind)

And bunny boy is just so pro it's ridiculous. Love his stuff. Not to mention his great NES programing posts. Either way, I think it's great to be able to offer stuff with these guys and we all bring a different flavor to whats going on.

Thanks again guys!

Could you please please consider doing both Final Fantasy 2 and 3.  I think I speak for a lot of people when I say that it would be an instant buy especially with the high quality you are making them in.

Sweet Home is also an incredible title, but FF 2 and 3 are two titles a lot of us have been itching to get our hands on.  To be able to play them on my NES would be awesome.

Please consider it, and thanks for your hard work

and FF3 is a bit easy to screw up I have one made with a full pin mario 2 but I can't figure out where to put the battery so it doesn't constantly discharge. so mine lost it's save in about a week.

haha I already asked him about that myself :-D I was trying to find the artwork for him but i couldn't find it anywhere

I got my cart from Joe so I'll see if he can provide that for us. 

I did manage to find some art for that and started playing with it a bit. It's not very clean though. I might have to recreate it in illustrator
