Title: WTB-Replacement Game cover (Byron, GA)
Post by: thomas_surles on February 17, 2016, 04:27:47 pm

I am looking for someone to print me a replacement cover for Donkey Kong country Tropical freeze.
My wife spilled coke on the case and ruined the cover. then it tore up when I tried to pull out the cover.

please let me know what you can do and for how much. Thank You.

THere is a large scan of the game cover Here : ( http://www.freedvdcover.com/wp-content/uploads/freedvdcover_donkey_kong_country_tropical_freeze_cover.jpg (http://www.freedvdcover.com/wp-content/uploads/freedvdcover_donkey_kong_country_tropical_freeze_cover.jpg) )

Just go to that page view the image enlarge to fullsize and save picture as a name you can remember. that will download it to your computer at full size (make sure you get it full size and not just a thumbnail size ! - should be about 7Mb and 3240 x 2171 pixels)  then save to a thumbdrive and take to a nearby office depot/ kinkos etc. and print it out on a thick paper. (the one linked is 10.8" x 7.25" which sounds about the right size for a dvd cover) Should only cost a couple bucks and if they ask what it is for just let them know it is a replacement so they do not say they can not print it due to copywrite issues.

what kind of paper would be best? I have a few other coverless games I would like to fix as well.  thanks for all the info. I was worried about the copyright issue.
