Any chance of doing the homebrews and repros next? I've got Adventure II and Koffi Yellow Kopter cased but they don't match the new covers.

I have scans for everything but Bounty Bob Strikes Back, Frogger II: Threedeep, H.E.R.O. and Meteorites. The chances of getting scans for these is going to be difficult as these are the more rare games for the system.

I hadn't planned on it as finding high-rez art for the homebrew stuff is hard.

I used to have all the games and i had all the boxes too. All my games and boxes were in mint condition. When i was younger, at the urging of my mother, i sold them all and my original 5200. Dumbest thing ever. Here i am twenty five years later trying to get it all back. LOL If i had my originals, i could have gotten scans for all of them for you. Oh well. Except for HERO, i probably won't ever get Bounty Bob or Frogger II again anyways. Once you're done with the custom versions of the remaining ones, i guess it's on to the 7800. Whee!  :)

Makes me wish I had an aftermarket 5200 controller that works, as my 5200 controller I have is useless. Games boot up fine, controller does nothing. Having the same experience AVGN had.

Here is a batch of reproductions and overlays that will be hosted from my box folder.

Castle Blast

Castle Crisis

Tempest was originally planned to be released in 1984 but was shelved after Trammil took over control of Atari. You can see a box mockup in a scene from Cloak & Dagger.

I added all your covers to the site. There are a couple that have dead links so I was unable to download them and add them.

Thanks!

Now I just have to figure out how to upload the overlays. Not sure what to size the thumbs for those and I guess I would mark them as a label.

Glad I could help!

I only have H.E.R.O left to do. I highly doubt I will ever see a box for Bounty Bob if the cart alone goes for 400 bucks.
