    Hey. I love keeping my SNES games looking fresh and stacked, and one thing I always loved to put on my favorite SNES games were these little covers.

    But one thing I never knew, is where I got them! When our family first got a Super Nintendo, I was only 4 years old. Where are they from? Did you buy a pack of them seperately at the store?

    I only have around 8 and probably going to purchase more off of Ebay. :nod:

    Thankyou! :thumbsup:

    Oh, and I also wondered, did Japan cartridges get similar covers? I dont think these would fit properly on cartridges other then US.

    Each game came with one. (and as far as I'm aware there's no equivalent for the Japanese Super Famicom games)

    PAL SNES games (which were shaped like Super Famicom carts) also didn't have dust covers.

    At the end of the SNES life, they stopped to come with one (around Yoshi's Island release if I remember well).

    Thankyou for that picture! I guess that sums it up. I guess most new games came with the cover... Wonder if they ever sold them separately?

    As always, thanks for the fast replies guys! :nod: Love this Forum! DAMN! :lol:

    I believe Harvest Moon was the only one of my SNES games that I got when they were new that did not come with one of those covers. I don't think I've ever found a SNES game at a thrift or used game store that had one though, so most of my games are missing it.

    I've got a good number of them somewhere. They make them stack wierd in my drawers.
