DjBlades Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 (edited) I've been looking to make some custom box art for a few Wiiware titles but I can't find the box art template used on the database anywhere. I've searched across numerous sites and none are identical to the one used on the database. Were all Wiiware games handled by a single user or something?

harryoke Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 don't know if this is any good? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DjBlades Posted February 22, 2018 Author Share Posted February 22, 2018 (edited) Yeah that's great. I'd prefer if I could get the exact same template as the other Wiiware games so it doesn't stand out from them, but if I can't find it that one will work fine. Thanks for linking it.

rexryan Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Have you gone to the site that host all Wii game covers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DjBlades Posted February 23, 2018 Author Share Posted February 23, 2018 Which do you mean? I've tried Mobygames and VGBoxart. The "official" box art cover for a wiiware game is this: Which looks terrible when enlarged to match the size of Wii box art. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rexryan Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 search game TDB for your image it may help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro808 Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Not the exact one you posted but it is what I made to start making my own boxes. I did not like that simple rounded edge of the ones I could find. So I modified a box template to fit my needs. I wanted them to look more like an actual game case.

DjBlades Posted February 23, 2018 Author Share Posted February 23, 2018 (edited) GameTDB is using the exact same box art as the GamesDB, that's certainly the one. Do they have a link for a transparent template? edit: Spoke with the owner of GameTDB and he was able to help me out, thanks for locating the original site for them!

FistyDollars Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 lol I just saw this thread, sorry. I was the one who did all the WiiWare entries in the database, and yeah they were all from GameTDB. I actually had to hand crop them for front and back, it sucked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DjBlades Posted April 23, 2018 Author Share Posted April 23, 2018 Ouch, that's some dedication. Well, they looked like they were done from scratch to me, so that's a damn good crop! The owner of GameTDB gave me the .psd files for the Wiiware template, want me to PM them to you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FistyDollars Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Sure, sounds good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dano53 Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 I know this is a long shot but does anyone still have the .pds files for the Wiiware template? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
