Question regarding Genesis Inserts and Cases
makeshiftknight:
I have to say, I'd like to see some original covers go up for Genesis games also. Definitely not make them the standard, as you can't buy them anymore, but it would be nice to have the original cover for each game in case yours gets damaged.
Ragnarok2103:
there nearly the same size anyway, so it doesnt really matter. most of my games had the cases, and i just took out the insert and placed it into the ugc case, and it looks normal. the only difference is the new covers are slightly wider. so if you wanted to place them in the old genesis case, you either have to trim it a little more or just change it in photoshop.

Other systems permit multiple sizes of covers. Ie. Dreamcast has CD and DVD, Saturn has Slimline and fullsize DVD. Why could this not be permitted for the SMS or Genesis? Are we running out of storage space?

Everyone can just download the UGC covers and change them to their likeness... Why host double the covers???

I know with Dreamcast and PS1, there is a dramatic difference in size between the CD and DVD covers, with Genesis/SMS the difference is just too small to host both. Also, you can buy DVD and UGC cases on bulk, as far as I know, you can't buy new Genesis cases.
As to the Saturn slimline/full-size, I believe that was a project brought over from another site, by MookyJooky if I recall correctly.
