Splatterhouse Wanpaku Graffiti - Large Scan or Pic of Box Art?

[mobiusclimber]

Does anyone have a large sized scan or good quality pic of the box art for Splatterhouse for the Famicom?

[todesengel]

Here's a good high quality scan I had laying around, hope it's what you need.

Wow that's even better than what I had in mind! (Thought someone would just have the front, but having both is going to work out even better.) I'm making a box for the ol' "stuck the board in a NES cart w/ a converter" repro.

[edit: Actually, this is even better than that b/c I had to rebuy another Splatterhouse cart so I have it for the Fami, and the one I bought has the manual, stickers and other stuff. So now I can have a box for it too!]

That's not bad. How about I put out the original, non-resized scan that yours came from instead?

Scanned from my personal copy for my site West Mansion (which really should be the first stop for anyone looking for Splatterhouse info of all kinds - if it's good enough for Namco Bandai, it's good enough for you too).

mobiusclimber, need a good scan of the stickers that came with the game too?

Thanks! Yeah I should have checked West Mansion first. *smacks forehead*

[todesengel]

Yeah I should have thought to just go to your site as well Dire. Thanks for for posting an even better scan than the one I had, I'll be using yours as well to make a print out.

Heh, it's all good. You guys mind posting pics of your creations when you're done? I'd love to see them.

[mobiusclimber]

Mine is going to go up on Ebay when I finish it. I'm going to have to flip a coin to decide if I want to make an English-language manual for it or if that's too much work. LOL. I'll post the pics when I get everything finished. :)

[Dire 51]

Sweet, can't wait to see it. If you plan to make an English-language manual, let me give you a couple of good resources to use:

Probably the most useful page I have, includes boss names and homages. (http://splatterhouse.kontek.net/shwgtrans.html)

Codes & Passwords (http://splatterhouse.kontek.net/shfccodes.html), in the event you want to include them.

Characters (http://splatterhouse.kontek.net/sd_characters.html)

Weapons & Items (http://splatterhouse.kontek.net/shfcweapons.html)

Additional Info (http://splatterhouse.kontek.net/shfcinfo.html) - all scans of the Japanese manual here are the same quality as the cover and stickers.

(also, if you do decide to make a manual, mind slipping a link to West Mansion into it?)

[mobiusclimber]

Sure, I'll put a link in the manual if I make it, or on the back of the box if I don't. Thanks for all the help. :) (And btw, I'm doing this to a cart with a damaged label. I'd hate to see one in good condition taken apart for something like this. :D)

[Dire 51]

No problem. :D This should look pretty slick in the end, I think.

[todesengel]

Heh, it's all good. You guys mind posting pics of your creations when you're done? I'd love to see them.I don't mind posting a pic, I'm really just making a print out to use in one of those universal game cases.

[mobiusclimber]

What size should the Splatterhouse box art be? Is the first link the correct box size?

[Dire 51]

Neither of them are the correct size, although the first link is closest to the *actual* size. The one that I posted is a direct, unaltered scan of the insert, although it's much bigger than the insert itself.

[mobiusclimber]

I might have to size it to the size of a Genesis box, since that's the only thing I have on hand that the cart fits into without serious modification. Shame b/c I actually have a Namcot box, but the cartridge in it is smaller.

[Dire 51]

It'd certainly be interesting to see it in a Genesis case. You don't have the means to make custom cardboard boxes, do you?

[mobiusclimber]

I do, but then I wouldn't have a cart holder for it. (Unless it fits well in an SNES cart holder, but then I'd have to make an SNES box for it, which would be weird, imo.)

[Dire 51]

Yeah, that would be kind of weird. At any rate, definitely post pics when you're done, no matter what route you ultimately decide to take. :)
