Hi, is there anyone here that could help me with a reproduction label? Actually 2. It is for the hacks of Yoshi's Island + and Yoshi's Island + 2. If your curious and want to try them out you can download the patches at smwcentral.

please, please, please help me! You will be my hero and forever in my debt.

P.S. I don't know if these will work on real hardware, so if you are going to make a repro, do so at your own risk!

Do you just need somebody to print them? Or do you need somebody to design them?

I would if I had time. If you're registered on the cover project, then you could ask someone over there.

Good luck getting those games running on actual hardware. It's no simple task. Let us know how it goes :)

@Jack7 - there are SNES label templates on the cover project so you don't have to start from scratch.

Great label work Jack, that's going for accuracy and I love it. That would not stand out like a sore thumb at all.

How authentic do you want? To be as close as possible to the original you'll need a printer that does dye sublimation. That is, unless you want to go Made in Mexico SNES cart label style :P

I use semi-gloss or glossy photo paper (depending on what the originals look like), then run it through a little machine I got from Brother which puts adhesive on the back. The labels I've done so far look great.

Just be careful about cutting rounded corners on them and do a couple test placements before your try and place it with the adhesive on it.

I can print it for you with a commercial grade adhesive vinyl w/ a clear laminate and computer cut. I've done a few for ape on here and my prices are reasonable.

If you're enjoying it, then seriously hop over to the cover project. Lots of requests over there that people are looking to get sorted out ;)

I have a similar need - can someone here print and mail me a reproduction NES cartridge label? I have the design already and properly sized. I just need someone to print, cut and mail me a high quality stickable label that's ready to apply to the cart. Please pm me if you can help.

No prob! It's a tight, close community. Not a lot of BS or drama and some seriously good folks :)

Let me know if you have a hard time getting registered. It can take a bit since they get a LOT of spam bots trying to sign up. I can get you setup ASAP. I know some folks over there ;)

I don't see any mention of that site in this thread and I don't see any recorded edits that revert to it.

I also don't see any direct link to any roms or anything else that would otherwise be in violation of our policies.

Look more closelier...

Still, no links or ROMs, obviously. Just the pirate police on the prowl, as usual.

Why the hell did my text search miss that repeatedly? *edit ... no space.

Still, no policy violations.
