SORHP Posted March 11, 2014 Posted March 11, 2014 Hey guys, Im looking for this flyer in high res in English... can anyone help??? Thank you My Arcade Machines...
Polemicist Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 Sorry bro not something in my collection. Just a suggestion. Trim the flyer you have to say the top right image of the ship etc and do an image search in Google images and Tineye and see if it comes up with something. I've used this technique for a few rare things and have had quite a bit of luck finding stuff. You need to use large elements that are not common.
SORHP Posted March 13, 2014 Author Posted March 13, 2014 nice idea, Ill give it a try My Arcade Machines...
SORHP Posted March 13, 2014 Author Posted March 13, 2014 ... no dice, Im guessing I'll have to get it translated if I want to use it in English on my new arcade My Arcade Machines...

SORHP Posted March 21, 2014 Author Posted March 21, 2014 Just ask your local Yakuza, sure they'd be happy to help! Lol I tried that! But seriously, my buddy is married to a Japanese girl, I asked her to see if she would do it for me... It's been a week, we shall see My Arcade Machines...
Alpha17x Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 I think this is the same resolution just with more of it. http://cdn.medialib.computerandvideogames.com/screens/dir_2990/image_299032_full.jpg Actually I think a lot of that artwork is available so you could potentially re-produce it. I'll give it a go when I get home from the gym; Is there a certain resolution you're aiming for? It's going to take me a while to do the translation. Some of the text is hard to read. I'm using the one I linked in my post here. The text above mario on the left says something along the lines of 'Mario (and Luigi?) Are back, three times stronger!' Lit translation is; (Luigi?) Three times strong and/with mario. The top left of yours says 'Retrieve the king's cane from koopa!!' I'll put an image up when I'm done. It will take me a while. Update: Got most of it done. The quality of all the scans I've found make it difficult to translate the smaller lines of text. I've got all the main ones done. I have use some creative liberty to make some of it make sense in english for example beside the picture of him flying it says something about 'in the flight of a cormorant within the sky!' which I took to mean 'fly through the sky like a bird!' Getting there.
Alpha17x Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 Progress so far. I will remove the watermark when It's done. The world map comment references traveling through a performance rather than a game as the entire aesthetic of SMB3 was that you were going through a stage show production, so it fits. I don't know If I'll be able to get the smaller text, It's really hard to read. I will give it a shot though, or see if I can find other source material to figure out what should be there.
Alpha17x Posted March 23, 2014 Posted March 23, 2014 Okay. Here's the part you originally wanted: http://i.imgur.com/gUgqGdt.png I'll finish the whole thing up and post the left side on it's own and then post a link to a combined version later. The blurb under the big graphic is hurting my brain. Enjoy. As I said before I took a few translation liberties, as you have to with Japanese. The bottom had some patents. I didn't feel like digging through Japanese patent DBs for them so I just put a 'watermark' there. But also out of the way so it doesn't interfere with the overall look of the flyer. Feel free to photoshop it out if you want. I just put it there incase the link is share. Where I put Nostalgic Mario Versus Action Included it said something like 'Mario Versus Nostalgia will turn your stomach.' Which may sound amazing to the Japanese but to the English world; it raises questions. The world names all actually say 'World 1. Grassland' or "World, Number, Name' but there wasn't enough space, So I just used the numbers. I also shortened the world descriptions to get them to the point because again, there was a spacing issue. For example The World 3 description is actually something like 'This world is all wet! Only the greatest swimmer can make it through to the end. And in closing, This was actually really fun. Thanks for the challenge.
Polemicist Posted March 23, 2014 Posted March 23, 2014 OMG nice work bro. Please make sure you keep the original AI or PSD file for this. That is worth archiving onto the FTP.
Alpha17x Posted March 23, 2014 Posted March 23, 2014 Yeah. I'll put the PSD up once I finish both sides and do some clean up work. The layers and folders are all over the place.
SORHP Posted March 23, 2014 Author Posted March 23, 2014 That's amazing!!! I can't say thank you enough!!! As for the resolution, as high as possible... this will be used as the instruction card that goes in a reproduction donkey kong cabinet I'm refashioning to be smb3, dude !!! You killed it!!!! Amazing! My Arcade Machines...

Alpha17x Posted March 23, 2014 Posted March 23, 2014 http://i.imgur.com/GiQQKaz.jpg - This also includes a bit of cleaning. Here are both sides. Translated. The blurb about the storyline is -heavily- paraphrased. (You can fit a lot of meaning into a few Kanji) I also took subtle creative liberty with the logo. Now that I've got it pretty much all translated I can make one at a higher resolution because most of the art work in it has been vectorized by the emulation community as a whole. That will be in a few days (or maybe tomorrow if I have time), but I'm going to give it a rest for the remainder of the evening. High fives all around everyone!
Dime333 Posted March 23, 2014 Posted March 23, 2014 just want to say thank you, Alpha17x. This isn't something I'll be using. But seeng this getting done on request is fantastic. I gives me a warm feeling inside

Alpha17x Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 Sorry I didn't notice this until now. Segoe UI and Segoe Print they should be built into windows. At least windows 7 anyway
