Hey guys, I know some of you must have some Genesis cases (specifically talking to the newer members here)..I have been collecting some games lately, and with no boxes...so, if some of you could scan and upload whatever you can, that'd be great...

I have scanned all my boxes. I have already uploaded half of the covers last sunday amd will upload the rest this weekend. So they should show up sometime next week when Snowcone is back.

- Aladdin
- Budokan
- Castlevania
- Comix Zone
- Ecco The Dolphin
- Ecco The Dolphin: The Tides Of Time
- Eternal Champions
- Global Gladiators
- Mega Games 2
- Mega Man: The Wily Wars
- Mortal Kombat
- Soleil
- Sonic
- Sonic 2
- Speedball 2
- Vector Man
- Virtua Racing
- Xenon 2 Megablast

These are all Euro covers though, so the cover will say "Mega Drive" instead of "Genesis". But I guess it's not that hard for you to take my cover artwork and combine it with a US cover already uploaded since you've got some serious skills when it comes to Photoshop :)

PS: If you don't want to wait I could probably send you the .zip file (about 130MB)

Have you uploaded raw scans' or covers. If covers ... are they DVD or Media Shelving game cases?

If raw scans do we want them in the game cases for continuity with SNES,N64?

Yeah, methinks we'll need two versions - One for the original cases, and one resized for the media shelving.

I've got a few of the European Mega Drive covers sitting on my HD. (As well as Master System covers)

 I was gonna upload them "as is" as I'm sure people will like the choice of an original scan as well as the modified media case sized ones.

I uploaded covers. I don't know what cases people are using for their Genesis games here. I just looked at the covers created by daroga that were already uploaded in the Genesis section and resized the scans to the same dimensions he used. I think I read somewhere in the CAG thread about Genesis covers that if you print the covers with these dimensions they fit into the original Genesis game boxes. I haven't tried it myself yet since I have all the covers for my games.

I'm not a genesis collector, but if you find any large lots that are a good deal and would help the project a lot let me know the auction and I'll see if i can pick it up and scan em in.  I don't mind fronting a few hundred bucks on an auction, so long as i can sell it off again and loss less than 10% (or 5% if it's more than $500).
