Trying To Find DS Covers

ericbazinga · Post by **ericbazinga** » Wed Jun 24, 2015 8:11 pm

So, I have some DS games that don't have cases- just the cartridge. I found some cheap DS cases from an electronic store near my house that was going out of business (10 cents a case, what a STEAL!), but I wanted to get covers for them-- front and back.
I have 7 DS games that don't have covers. I found covers for two of these online, but I couldn't find covers for the rest of them, and I was hoping you guys could help.

The remaining five games are:
1-2. Atari's Greatest Hits Volumes 1 and 2
3. Corvette Evolution GT
4. MySims SkyHeroes
5. Steel Horizon

I would greatly appreciate it if you guys could help me find front-and-back covers for these games online. Or, if you own one of these games, could you please scan the cover.

I hope you guys will help me.

Check gamefaqs.com for the ds game you want the cover of. The image section for any individual game should have a cover image. Unfortunatly they are usually a front scan and a back scan not one long scan like a real cover is. So some minor image editing may be required.

Thank you TkSilver, I was able to make a full cover for Steel Horizon. I STILL can't find front-and-back covers for the other four games though, and I've gone to several other cover sites, with no luck.

If anyone on these forums has one of these games, could you PLEASE scan the cover? Thank you

AGHV1 moby games

AGHV2 moby games

3. Corvette Evolution GT

4. MySims SkyHeroes - front cover only (better then nothing)

I found full front and back covers in less then 10 mins using gamefaqs (which I told you about...) and google image search. I don't mind helping out, but please put in some effort next time too.

I was wanting US box art, but I guess this is better than nothing. Thanks anyway though

I just decided to make my OWN covers, since I couldn't find real ones. I made custom spines, found front and back covers from US (some back covers are EU though), and I'm ALMOST done.

I just need the back cover for MySims SkyHeroes (US or EU, either will do), and then I will post a gallery of my custom covers.

EDIT: Found it! All done. Thanks guys

My Custom Cover Gallery!
All of these covers I put together myself, although I couldn't have done it without TkSilver's very helpful links.

So, I decided to show off the covers I made. These were made using US and EU scans, as well as some pieces I whipped up myself using online custom-cover templates. My Gallery will actually be 2 posts long, as I can only fit 3 attachments per post.
Thanks to everyone who helped, this couldn't be done without you. And if you'd like to use one of these covers, just go right ahead.
