Dimensions: 

1. Labels
The label is required to be in typical famicom cassette label dimensions (90mm x 43mm).
If you would like to use alternative dimensions based off of specific cassette types (Konami, Jaleco cassettes), please request that cassette type and send in the correct dimensions for that cassette. *We are unable to do large cassettes such as late Namco or Irei cassettes.
Please do not have an accurate Family Computer logo on the label so that it will not be mistaken for a real game. 
Printing and application of the label will be done by Meteor. 
If you would like a rare cassette color (gold, silver, clear) it would help us greatly if you could submit the cassette as well. You can request up to three different colors of cassettes for your entry.
