Here's a couple I fixed up tonight, going the screenies and blurbs route. I think I'm really digging them more than the plainish backed versions.

Love 'em!  Screenshots/blurbs look great!  Amazing stuff, man, really.  If I didn't refuse to buy things that aren't CIB, I'd definitely hit you up... :)

Thanks! I think now that I'm doing the backs too it'll be much easier to design new ones. The biggest issue I was having was designing the back of the box to keep it clean and interesting. But with the blurbs and such on the back it makes it look more official and they'll look even better when setting next to a DS game on the table. Between the Caravan Heart project, updating these and GF time, I hope I can get some more knocked out soonish. Next ones I have been thinking of are Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow, Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 and Pokemon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire.

I'm having a helluva time finding a CIB Pokemon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire for a reasonable price, so it's good to know you're making a box for it... You know, in case I stumble across a cheap cart-only copy...

Have you made replacement manuals for any of these games?

Nope, the only game I'm planning on making a manual for is Dragon Quest Monsters: Caravan Heart (Whenever it eventually gets translated). Other than that I'm not really interested in making replacement everything for the rest of my games. haha

And now all my original ones (other than Caravan Heart) are updated! Now if I can only figure out why the 1st run printed too dark, I'll be a happy panda.

New one, Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3. Built the logo and the checker floor from scratch. Luckily found a sweet I hi-res Raccoon Mario on the Super Mario wikia page.

Got the bug to start working on these again. So I started with an easy one to get back in the swing of things.

The Legend of Zelda - NES Classics. Like the Final Fantasy VI Advance, Super Mario 3 and Castlevania, I decided to go the route of mimicking the original release's artwork.

The Caravan Heart project morphs! I'm working on making it an actual cardboard box, rather than a DS case.

Here's a mock-up in Photoshop.

Ya it is. I'm excited to see it finished though. And I think we might actually be able to finally do so this year!
