The box makes it look more like an official product. Nice touch.

My japanese carts:
- samurai spirits 1, 2 & 3
- kof 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 2000 & 2001
- real bout 1 & 2
- last blade ... Which you already made an insert for
- matrimelee
- mutation nation
- robo army
- the super spy
- fatal fury 2 & 3
- leaque bowling
- gunlord ... On pre order

I also have english mvs flyers for:
- prehistoric isle 2
- shock troopers 2nd squad
- dodgeball

Feel free to let me know what you need. There are only two things to keep in mind. One is that finals start next week, which is why i won't have the time to set up my scanner until mid august and the other thing is that i only have a A4 sized scanner.

I hope that others are willing to share, too.

Boxes are cool!

If you don't want to stick to one kind...just change the layout of the box every X titles...will be more "catch 'em all" style..

I like both Garou and Sengoku ones, along with template...it's the only remind about arcade mission of MVS...keep them!

Hey fellas,
before I get back to the inserts I want y'all to know and think about:
If you love your stuff then you NEED TO protect it!

Read here

Don't talk about it in this thread, this was just a side note because I just needed to say this.

I made some changes in the gallery and on my server:
You will find 3 directories
-> 1. ROUND FACES LOGO
-> 2. MVS LOGO
-> 3. DEPRECATED (all covers from the past, for reference)

So now - without further ado - I present to you....

kingofthemonsters2_v1.2.jpg

Above: ROUND FACES LOGO
Below: MVS LOGO
kingofthemonsters2_v1.2.jpg



Consider this a prototype for things to come.

Need everyone's opinion please because if you all agree that this is the way to go I'll prepare the other inserts in the same matter.

edit: OMG, found a typo: MONS(T)ER BATTLE GAME :-/
sorry guys, I'll correct that later, gotta get some sleep now.

thanks! i could use scans of the dodgeball and prisland flyers. Descreen while scanning (ger.: entrastern)
or use silverfast if your scanner driver doesn't have that option.
I already got all your aes games ;) except gunlord.

If you take a look at the corrected KOTM2 insert you will notice that I introduced something new:
The genre-text under the screenshot.

Here's what I put together so far. Please correct me if I made a mistake!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How to use this:
There are 4 lines per game:
1. Game Title (not relevant/for reference)
2. Genre-Text on the spine (if exists)
3. Genre-Text in japanese, coming from the AES jp originally (if exists)
4. The manufacturer logo on the spine

just so you know...
i'll be on vacation from saturday for a week.
if anybody needs a certain insert very urgent please let me know.
status right now is that i'm still customizing the inserts that i've already made to make them fit into the new template. this is not as easy as creating new ones because i need to rearrange all the elements to get along with the box and the new margins. anyways... stay tuned. i'll always post inserts as soon as i updated them.

Would you mind if iwas to post that japanese list over at arcade otaku? I think they've (we've) got 2 or 3 members who live in japan should be familiar with the neo games.

Would you mind...

not at all. go ahead. japanese people would be a great benefit! My options now are google-translator and online OCR services to produce editable text, but it's a slow process and a pain in my ... to make sure it found the correct kanji, hiragana and katakana characters.

BTW. My AO-username is the same as here.

A bit of info in the most likely event you are standing in a printshop and people start asking questions:

-Is your file CMYK or RGB?
->I have Alex's PDF, these are CMYK. (The Jpegs are RGB though)

-What shall we print on?
->Premium glossy paper -> Europe: DinA3 -> USA: Ledger, Tabloid B -> Canada: P3

Now you say: "Please do not scale! Print it unscaled!"

--now you will get your prints--

then you say: "can you please cut it along the lines?"

now you go home and enjoy your fresh shockbox inserts :)

Hi Alex, your inserts are really great, thanks for putting time into it.

Here is what I was able to get from the Big Tournament Golf back cover (question marks are characters I was not able to decipher):

乱入対戦もOK!
マッチプレイで勝負だ!!

2つのゲームモードを搭載!!
・スコアを競い合うストロークプレイ!
・2人(VS)で対戦するマッチプレイ!

個性的な6人の
ゴルファーから選ベ!
若手からベテランまで、世界の強?ゴルファーたちが勢描い。
ロングヒッターやテクニシャンなどプレイスタイルも多彩!

[全72ホール]
4つのコースを攻略せよ!
??の舞台は、アメリカ・オーストラリア・日本・ドイツの4カ
国。すベてのホールには、手強い?が?ち搭えている!

I can't read Japanese without a dictionary, so I guess someone with better skills will have to fill the gaps. Hope it'll help.

It's still not correct yet. I'm unsure about 教.

These are my sources for dealing with japanese:

Just to give you an impression of how cool it is to have the backcover-text:

THIS INSERT IS WIP!!!
Download PDF

Now open this in Adobe Reader and zooooooom all in :)

How cool is that?
