^If you are not buying a copy then its irrelevant to you their chief. Since all the shit that happened with the snap cases just wondering if they were going to be able to get them or we get our own that's all.

Lads...

SHUSH.... we're still trying to find a way to do this... and not everything has been discussed...

What i can say is CURRENTLY....

1) AES cart will have snaplock cases and insert... NO INSTRUCTIONS...
2) MVS kits will be in Cardboard boxes with matching labels... dip sheet... mini and POSSIBLY a moves sheet... maybe some A5 posters too...

There may also be just a BARE cart (for the guys who don't give a shit...)... BUT... everything goes thru Raz... and I will only state what he asks me to say...

Now, less infighting plz.... Raz will provide details when he can...

Just out of curiosity, what sort of quantity limitation are you considering for both AES and MVS?

These are the flyers I have. These are quick 600dpi scans from my crappy home scanner. I can get better scans from the office machine if need be...

Hi NeoTurfMasta,

Sorry to ask you about scans after all this time but it is possible to have better scans from the office machine?

Best, JacKc.

That is not possible, the quality of the artwork is the problem and not the scanner.

Just to let you know I also think there is an error in the Japanese text that was translated. I think the last work in the paragraph should be 'Belkana!' and not 'Vilucania!'.

Is anyone able to supply me with HQ scans of both A5 sheets of the Crossed Swords 1 MVS kit (English, seen in this picture http://www.neo-geo.com/snk/carts/mvs/CROSSED.jpg). I'm also looking for a good photo of an English AES cart so I can see the label (top and side). If you don't want to post it here please feel free to drop me a PM or email.

The higher rez version will definitely give a much better print quality. Someone can always add back in some of that 'roughness' texturing from the original.

Kind of like this:

That's true but the facelift is already missing details and thus it looks "blochier" than the original already. Like a scale X2 effect...ugh!

I suggest using finer brushes and stick to the details, they are very little as it is but miss them and the pic will have that obvious reproduction look that is so dreadful.

If I get a chance this weekend I'll go in and scan. I think the machines can do 1200.

@JacKc

You could try bringing the 4 screenshots closer together so the spacing is more equal to the edges of the insert (and where the insert will crease). At the moment the spacing between the pictures looks to be about double that amount. It may look better if it were all equal. Its just a suggestion and it may look worse. There are a couple of ways you can achieve what I mean, either enlarging the pictures slightly or moving them closer together.
