  • 9. Why choose BoxMyGames over the other guys?
     

    At BoxMyGames, we strive to make the highest quality boxes for all of your classic games. Every box is made to spec of the original - that means the size, shape, weight, as well as the look and feel of our boxes are very close to the originals. Our boxes are constructed of the same sturdy cardboard material that video game boxes were made of in the 1980s and 90s. We don't use fiber art paper, or flimsy white card-stock like the other guys. Our boxes have a satisfying feel in the hand, one that we think you'll find to be worthy of protecting and presenting your classic games without compromising their dignity, like so many cheaper reproductions do.

    Every box undergoes a meticulous editing process by the Prookit team to ensure that even the fine details of each side are not only accurate and legible, but look good to the best of our ability. We never simply take a pre-existing image and just slap it on and call it a day, like so many others do. We want our boxes to look their best, and want them to be worthy of your game cartridges. Each BoxMyGames game box comes with a "boxmygames" badge of honor located on the original UPC. Unlike other box makers you'll find on the web, we strive to be responsible for our creations and we want our products to always be distinguishable from any other box.

    We're confident that our game boxes have the best look and feel of any you can find.

  • 10. The box I want is not on your site, do you take requests?
     

    Yes, This will help build popular inventory and expand our library. We will take any request for any Official USA released NES, SNES, N64, GAMEBOY/color/advance, Sega Genesis, Sega 32x, or Game Gear titles. Send us an e-mail of the boxes you'd like. Large requests may take time to complete so please be patient, as orders will take priority. If we cannot do a box request we will let you know. Also please note, we only do NTSC format game boxes. We have designed a few for popular fan hack carts and we are open to designing some boxes for some popular fan hacks, or homebrew games, however please discuss these with us before hand as these take quite a while to design. Unless you have a layout and can provide artwork, DO NOT PRE-PURCHASE assuming we will design a custom box for you.

    Due to the amount of requests, vs. actual buys, all OFFICIAL USA RELEASE requests will need to be pre-purchased before game template is designed. Allow a few extra days for template design. Please use the "Request it" Item for this.

  • 13. Do you still sell Repro Box version 1.0?
     

    No. The material we used to make our boxes originally was sadly discontinued. However, this pushed us to dig harder until we and come up with a better box, one that matched the quality and material of original game boxes. Repro Box Version 2.0 is now the sole product that we make.

    Returning customers please be aware that boxes will be made of a different material than those purchased before October/2016. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience.
