Atari Lynx Cover Thread

[Lumberjack42]

Are there any lynx games yet? Didn't find one when making my posting spree today....

I don't own any lynx games and the covers I used for testing the template are well below site standards. If somebody who owns some games could scan their boxes, we'd be in business.

I'll see if I can get some.... Just bought a Lynx 2 some days ago and I definitely need some games for it anyway.....

Are these to standard?

I tried uploading em here, but it doesn't give me a working link after doing so.

I picked these up in an auction still wrapped.
I have 4 others still in plastic along with another in good condition (at least the cover art is).  Just not sure if I'm scanning them well enough or if they're good enough.
Just let me know and I'll scan the others.
Steel Talons
Xybots
Tounament Cyberball
Crystal Mines 2
Shanghai

As to size, these things will fit into DS cases with no problems.  Their slightly smaller than Game Gear carts and about a third as thick.  They fit loose or even under the manual clips!  Biggest issue is that there are two different types of cartridges. One is flat, but the other arches backward at the top.  It doesn't really affect placement too much.  You just have to set it under the clip with the front facing down if you want it flat.  Otherwise, it still holds fairly well..  If I can find my camera, I'll upload some pics.

EDIT:  Here ya go.  Sorry for the blur in some.  Just being quick about it.

The scans are ok although 600dpi are prefered for editing purposes by some cover makers(for example me )....

I'll get em up later today, then!

I know it's been a while, but I've got a few covers to add to the site, though I'll have to get one of the other admins to post them to the database since I really don't have full internet access right now.

To confirm, these go in DS cases right?

[Lumberjack42]

Yes they do, Snow.

I thought the Lynx needed some more love, I mean we only got one cover.... Was kind of difficult to get everything on the little DS front/back... All those are rahter custom cause I had to arrange everything a new.... As I'm no customs specialist(I like to keep it retail) they are all not perfect artistically sorry... All are high quality though....

They are all different regions but for EU DS cases as I got some of these now....

There you go:

Crystal Mines 2 - US:


Gauntlet: The Third Encounter - US:


Hydra - EU:


Ishido - US:


Power Factor - EU:


Rampage - US:


Steel Talons - EU:


Super Skweek - US:


Todd's Adventure in Slime World - US:


Zarlor Mercenary - US:


Have fun.....

They all look fantastic. I deeply regret selling my Lynx..but times were real hard back then.

[Falconhood]

Wha? no California Games? That is the ONLY game i had for Lynx...and i can't recall what i ever did with my Lynx.

Warbirds



There is also a version for LJ's template in the offing.

[tiktektak]

Oooooh nice another Lynx treatment!

Are there more coming?

I got some new lynx games in I'd like to cover as well but my free time has been pretty non-existent in the last few weeks.

Dinolympics



Well here's one more for a start. I have about 14 or so Lynx games at the moment, but thats growing alll the time. Anything in particular you want Tik? If i have it, i will prioritise it.
