Great covers! It's near impossible to find scans of most of these games. I have many Odyssey 2 games, but most are loose. I'd given up ever putting them in cases.

Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

With the exception of Monkey Shines! and Out of this World! Helicopter Rescue!, all of the games you listed are either already completed in this thread or I have scanned them in my MediaFire account.  Sheep2001 is working on making covers from my scans when he has free time, but he has other priorities, so we have to be patient.  It's worth the wait because his covers are awesome! ;D

Does that mean you also have the hard wired controllers?  My controllers are removable which is good because one of my controllers doesn't work correctly.  The controller port is the same shape as a Genesis or Atari 2600 controller, but the pinout is not the same.  I’m going to try to re-wire an old Genesis or Master System controller and see if I can make it work as a substitution. 

I also read that the composite video out mod is really easy for this system.  I’m planning on doing that as well.  Neither project is top priority right now as I still need to replace the capacitors in my Game Gear.  The projects never end.  ;)

No, the first gen's the controllers are removable, and the video plug is odd, not a standard RCA or F-type.

So I unplugged it from inside the case, and used a normal RCA cable going out to my switching setup.   If you have removable joysticks then I think you have the same odd video plug I have\had.

You can get DB9 to RJ45 connectors for both mail and female, make them straight pin outs, and you can then make "Ethernet cables" that work both as extensions and converters.  I've not ran into any issues with doing this so far on any systems (Cable length, ect).

Edit: so much for direct linking to dropbox

I found the ALPINE SKIING, but that is all...I'll look again.

I looked there, under MAGNOVOX, but ...WHERE is the tab for this [THE COVER PROJECT] site??? No Odyssey2, no Magnovox...nothing that looks like it would be for the O2...does the Cover Project think that the PC-FX is more popular than the O2???
oh, yeah, I also grabbed the
[OD2] Alien Invaders Plus, so there are 2 covers in my print que.
I was looking through it either last night or this week, but when I saw the M-Network covers, I remember that you made those for me...and I STILL love those so much! They look so nice on my shelf.
update:
Alien Invaders-Plus! [downloaded cover is ready to print]
Alpine Skiing! [downloaded cover is ready to print]
Armored Encounter! Sub Chase!,,,just spotted this one, the name's abbreviation through me off.... [downloaded cover is ready to print]
Baseball!
Football!
K.C. Munchkin!
*Monkey Shines!
*Out of this World! Helicopter Rescue!
*Speedway! Spin-Out! Crypto-Logic!
UFO!---I see it's crossed-off, and I see the picture of it printed and inside a UGC, but where is the printable cover for it. I've sifted through these 3 pages several times now, so any help is appreciated. Thanks.  Also, has anyone found a better alternative for something slightly bigger for the O2 carts, since they are slightly too big for the UGC?

Sorry, I guess UFO! isn't in this thread.  Maybe I found it in the forums somewhere.  Honestly, I don't remember.  I'll post a link tonight when I get back to my home computer.  Sorry about the confusion.

And no, I haven't found a better alternative than the UGC.  Yes, the case bulges slightly with the O2 games, but at least they aren't sliding around inside the case.  The bulge isn't really noticeable when they are sitting on my shelf.
Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

Here is the cover for UFO!  This is not my cover.  I would credit the creator, but I'm not sure where I downloaded it from.  I will have to search through the forums again to find it.
