NES Sprite Covers - List Needed

Post by racketboy »

Hi everyone!

So I've always thought the early NES carts/boxes that had the sprite artwork (like the ones below) were cool. Does anyone know if there is a list of all the games that had artwork like that?

Well, even if I remembered that post, that doesn't confirm that that is a complete list.
So these ones were only launch titles and nothing else?

Are Metroid and Kid Icarus the only silver ones?

Rad Racer, which was also a silver box.
Wrecking Crew.

Depending on what exact angle you're going for remember that Blaster Master and Journey to Silius used screenshots as part of the cover as well.

Nah, not like Blaster Master or JtS -- just those Nintendo releases with the consistant cover style.
Thanks though!
