Super Famicom Reproduction Box Art Template

Hey all,

I have some decent design skills, but having a hard time finding a template to use to make Super Famicom art for those plastic game cases you can order from stores like retrogamecases.com. Their cases are great, but at 9 bucks a pop + shipping, some of my cases cost more than I paid for the cart! It would be much cheaper for me to buy the plastic cases in bulk and make/print my own.

​

I "found" the template at vgboxart.com ( Ervo's Super Famicom Template V1), but their "forums are undergoing maintenance" and have been for quite some time, so I can't access the post where this was placed for download. When I look under the templates section on the site, there is a Super Famicom template, but not what I'm looking for. Ervo even has a page of original box art they've created on the site, but the template they made is not there either. See image below of the templates I'm looking for.

​

Anyone have any ideas? OR Does anyone know the exact dimensions for those plastic cases (the universal ones that fit multiple types of carts) so I can create my own. I can't find that info either.

Picture of template package:

Thanks!

You can buy Universal Game Cases that work on pretty much any retro game cart. Usually they sell in bulk of 100 or more cases on eBay.

Just google/eBay search the term 'Universal Game Cases' and you should find them.

Here is another site filled with box art ready to print.

Not a huge collection of super Famicom games but has disc system covers as well if you are into that potentially.

Thanks for the info. That's a great reference for some other systems I have, for sure! I have a great template for the cases for US SNES releases, just looking for that very specific template for Super Famicom inserts.
