Custom Famicom Cartridge labels?

[L___E___T]

They look great!  What's Rockman 2 Claw?  Don't think I've heard of either of those.

Has anyone made a label they'd share for Zelda: The Legend of Link? It runs on MMC5, so the label area is a little bit larger than it is on standard FC carts.

Like that Battletoads label especially - did you use the US NES version?

No - JP version, I can live without the pause button beat  
Masaya logo suggests also the JP version.
US and EU had Tradewest logo on the label.

Claw is a fun hack. It has some new level designs and music - some even from Double Dragon.
Grayzone is also a hack of Rockman 2 - http://www.romhacking.net/hacks/871/

Label-size is 9,1 x 5,5 mm.
There you go....

Quick question number47, how did you make your battletoads repro?

Go to http://www.famicomworld.com/forum/index.php?topic=7922.0
and scroll down to the end.

ah okay. so i guess i can't just desolder and bend up pin 6 of the '161?

[number47]

Infact you can. If you use desoldering pump/gun or solderwick to get out all the solder. Take a few inches of 22 gauge wire, bend it to V or U shaped hook, slide the hook behind the 6th leg and gently (holding both ends of wire) drag the pin out of the hole.

[CloudGamerX]

awesome! I find it easier to bend up the pins anyways instead of cutting traces or breaking the pins. Can't wait to get my Battletoads on

Is Battletoads 1 really that rare that repro labels are being accepted?

[CloudGamerX]

in my area, Battletoads is pretty hard to find. Mainly because resellers are buying them all up and charging above ebay prices. Plus, Battletoads repro is for my personal collection only, but i figured i would share my label to others who want to use it.

[L___E___T]

Battletoads Famicom is an expensive game, repros of it have some demand.  I'm not sure what you mean about acceptance - the label's different enough at least.

[Ghegs]

A game being expensive or hard to find isn't a good enough reason to make a repro, and I would hope to see such repros discouraged. I can understand repros of games that are literally impossible to acquire (like a Famicom repro of the NES-only Battletoads & Double Dragon...and even then you could just buy an adapter and play the NES cart), but otherwise no.

But that's just my $0.02 and probably more suited to another discussion.

[HVC-Man]

I'll toss my hat into the ring as well, here's a Battletoads & Double Dragon label I made. I modeled it after the original label for Battletoads FC.

I think that looks really smart - and a great game to make a repro for as well - nice one!
