Yeah I am down for sure, I will start looking into it now.


Edit:


So I found this image, the best one I could find. :/

I can probably enlarge this, and clean it up again, then attach it to the back art of the box art. I can also modify this to make the label. If we can find a higher resolution (preferably not a JPG) then the quality will improve, this will look dithered and all ff'd up probably :/



Edit2:


In chat Xelement5X shared a link that someone put printable quality images for a large number of games to make repros with. I'm not sure if that infringes on the boards ethics so contact me via pm, but I think we can print the cover art, manual cover, and cart label if needed.

As long as it's just scans and there's no download links to roms and isos on the page, it's fine to share.

Thanks, I'd rather play it safe than sorry. I don't like sharing copy-written material. If I had made the image I would have felt OK sharing it, but I did not make these, and I didn't even find them just a middle man for someone who did :) . There are too many officially released games, and fan translated/modified games on this site to feel kosher about sharing it.

I have very mixed feelings about repros. This Wily Wars game is the exact poster child for what I like about rerpos - a game I played growing up when it was on Sega Channel (my favorite Sega Channel experience aside from Phantasy Star IV that later turned into disgust when I lost my save after the game was removed from the service), but I've never been able to own a copy of the game I enjoyed so much.

I don't feel too bad about making myself a copy of this game using 100% new materials. On the other side of the coin, the thought of someone making these at a significant profit using materials that are fan made, limited (poaching carts), or selling a recent fan's translation or hack without their consent, all disgusts me. So much so that I even feel hesitant making my own cart for Wily Wars after seeing this site.

I still might try to make my own repro for Wily Wars. I just love the game so much, and don't have a Genesis Everdrive, At least HTT can continue his quest with new materials in hand to make it easier to complete.

Aren't they like butt-holes or something, though?
