Looking for Genny/MD Full Box Art...

Post by BigTinz »

I've got a bunch of loose genny/MD games and a bunch of empty genny boxes. I'd like to print out some full box art and make my them look TITE.


Does anyone know of a place that has high res printable box art?

I'm looking for:

Turrican(GENNY)
ComixZone(GENNY)
Streets of Rage 2(GENNY)
Zero Wing(MD)
Darius Twin(MD)
Space Harrier 2(MD)
Devil Crush(MD)

any help would be great.

The only potential problem is that Genny cases are slightly smaller than the Universal Game Cases that TCP stuff is sized for. I'm not sure if they're at the same ratio, so you might want to measure the L/W of your existing Genny covers, calculate the ratio, then figure out the ratio on the TCP covers. If they're the same you can just do a quick resize in any image program and you'll be good to go.

I ran into this problem as well, and could only usually find the front and back of genny games without spine.... so all you do is measure the h/w and also how big the spine is in the image, bridge the front and back cover, then photoshop your own spine. takes a little bit of time but once you get the general template down you can make most other games in around 5 minutes.

Did you have any luck finding Genesis Mega Turrican boxart? The cover project just has the megadrive cover. . . just bough the game figuring it'd be on there but it's not. . .
