What he is basically saying is if someone decides to Copy the game they will have a label and cover for it so it'll look sort of "retail" quality and can be easier to sell on ebay and the like!

Printed out every cover so far and real Amiga users know that it´s not original.

But what about ex Amiga users or newbies? In that case Andreas is right.
They could easily get fooled on Ebay.

Well considering it has nothing from the pinball game on the cover and no mention of the game or the development or publishing teams there are no laws being broken!
