Are you looking for cover art that's already ready to be printed as one sheet to slip into a case, or cover art in general (the images are separated)?

cover to be printed

In that case, it might be worth trying to get in touch with AlammoFM since they've created videos with rendered game boxes including the spine. They might have some games ready to go in that format already. At the moment, even just finding high-quality scans as separated images can be tough and everything is scattered across many different sources.

hey, alammo here, thanks for the shout

As u/MICOM-MINMAY mentioned, i have some in the 3d box viewer, each one has a download button for the front, back and side: https://alammofm.com/pc98-covers/app (desktop better) heads up, it's pc-98 so some of the covers are nsfw

It's not all the scans i wish i had, still collecting. Hoping to grow the catalog slowly

Also try the neo kobe pc-98 archive. A lot of the game archives have extras inside and sometimes the cover scans are in there

thank you so much!!! Actually your page is AMAZING for playing all these gems!! I really was looking for a way to (re)-create all those boxes of those past gems. It's something intriguing with their art style that amazes being able to own them on shelves, even if you don't actually own the game itself!! I really hope and wish that one day I can find covers online for as many games as possible and print them!!

Oh! I can't reproduce it. Try to clear the localstorage on the page for your browser. Maybe you selected not allow on the warning alert that shows the first time you enter into the covers gallery page.
