The back lower portion is from a genuine Nintendo game. I merged the images to make a more realistic back for the DVD boxart. Hope you all like it! Too bad I don't have an extra box or the printer to print the image of this size. Anyone want to donate one to me?

BTW, someone is actually selling these covers with the box on craiglist! :lol:

Very nice, I'll get this printed. I'd rather find someplace nearby to buy a white dvd case, it's going to cost like 50¢ too. From the Nintendo store, $1.50 case plus $3.00 ground shipping, no thanks!!

Cool OP thnx. That is really neat. Before when I took sports to a friends place I had to jam it real snug into my zelda case. I just printed this off and stuck it in the case of a dvd I didn't like. Looks like an offical product case XD.

Its linked in the OP to imageshack. Make sure you don't have ad blockers and stuff on as it may filter out the image.

I must also say that RFDer= GDONG is one rude dude.

Looks like the same image I got online and then modified like yours with the Canadian lower back part. Except I made the "E" rating on the front smaller to be the same size as all the other Wii games

I just remembered I have a dvd that has a white case and I really don't care about it, I'll slap it into a black case and use that. For people in the Montreal area, Zoneaccro (http://www.zoneaccro.com/) sells cases, but they only have in black and green for now. Maybe they'll have white later.

I don't have a great printer at home so I got one of these printed @ Staples a few weeks ago on glossy heavy grade paper. It totally looks OEM. It was only $1.00 to print.

It looks pretty mint stacked up against all my other wii games.

Bought a white case at Zoneaccro (http://www.zoneaccro.com/) in store, 29¢ plus tax. They're not listed on the website but the one at the corner of Ste. Catherine east/St. Laurent they have em.

Wow, that looks great. Once I get more colour ink I'll print it off and stick in a Shrek 3D case that I have which happens to be white. Has anyone checked HMV? They always have either black or clear empty DVD cases on the shelves for some reason. Maybe they have white as well.

The one from Mookyjooky (wii_wiisports_4.jpg)? It's a nice cover, but the color seems wrong though, the blue is not light enough. You could always edit it to your liking in photoshop. wii_wiisports_6.jpg looks nice too, but the guy added his nickname in the barcode. :lol:

I was getting some for about 45-46 cents after shipping (but im no longer ordering from the place because they are charging surcharge to use paypal which isn't right (even if its not much). there was quite a few other things I wanted also. Its not really a matter of $1-$2, I could care less, but the email I recieved was kind of rude when I wrote to them about it. I will keep my eyes peeled for a new place though, and I cant believe how much business I have probably sent their way over 4 yrs. :mad:

they are whom im not dealing with because of their surcharge. its just plain rotten of them. their shipping is $10.95 or so + gst & pst & if paying with paypal then paypal fees. I found an alternative to them www.blankdvdmedia.com (also canadian based) Just looking into some feedback on them before I purchase. in the end of it though they end up being cheaper than blankmedia.ca on an order of 100. they charge $30 + $10 shipping, + gst (they are in quebec so unless youre also in quebec just the one tax :) ). And no surcharges ! Just the way it should be. Basically blankmedia wont do anything until enough complaints go through paypal for paypal to tell them it seems from their emails. I for one wish I never sent them any business over the past 4 yrs.:mad:
