Intellivsion, Colecovision, Atari and More(MERGED with new INTV thread!)

I've tried the opera browser too on Wii....

Not bad at all but a little bit slow I think...

Have you got a keyboard plugged in an USB port of the Wii(does that even work) or do you use the pointer(which is a little bit exhausting over time)?

At the moment I am using the pointer.  If a wireless mouse and keyboard could be plugged into the Wii, this would be great.  I'm not sure that PC peripherals will work though.  I need to read the manual I guess, just in cast the warranty is viod by plugging one in.

Well, here is basketball.  I am improving over time.  This case is a little more detailed on the rear than the rest. I have included a link to the file to demonstrate the clarity of the emulated cover...much better than if I just scanned it, and almost perfectly accurate, including the fonts (except for scaling of course..to fit the UGC).

Hello Lish and everyone!

I finally managed to get a hold off my girlfriends intellivision games.... Was a pretty hard thing because we almost never see my girlfriends father(divorced).... But I think it was worthwhile to say at least because she hast got a whopping 12 games.... All in their original boxes!!!!

There are:

Lock'N'Chase
Tennis
Golf
Bowling
Star Strike
Astrosmash
Soccer
Skiing
Advanced Dungeons and Dragons
Tron Maze-A-Tron
Tron Deadly Discs
Night Stalker

What do ya say? I think I can scan everyone except Lock'N'Chase which was allready posted.... Am I right?
It would be very nice Lish if I could get your template.... Would make my life easier because repairing them will be a real hard task otherwise...

Tiktektak,

Great.  I have all except the five below (been thrashing around on ebay lately), so if you want to upload the raws for those then next week I'll start work on expanding the covers.  As you know, I pretty much create the covers from scratch because of their condition.  I am happy to share the template around if anyone else wants to recreat these covers.

Tennis
Bowling
Star Strike
Skiing
Tron Deadly Discs

[tiktektak]

Ok no problem if you want to do those yourself.... It's less work for me so I'm happy with it...
I've got to work on many Genesis/SNES/MegaCd/Dreamcast covers so I've got enough on my to-do list.... 

I'll upload the raws in the next few days for ya.... Sorry that I didn't get to it sooner but as I said it was a little complicated!

Regards Sebastian

Yay, more SNES covers.  That would be great.  Just sold my house in Qld cause I moved 2000kms south to Melbourne a couple of years ago.  I need to use some of the money to extend my house here, but the rest will go into my favourite hobby. 

By the way...
INTELLIVISION CARTS FIT SNUG SIDEWAYS DOWN THE BOTTOM OF THE UGCS
32X FIT PERFECTLY (EVEN BETTER THAN) N64 CARTS WHERE THEY GO IN THE UGCS
PC-50X CARTS FIT (Barely) AFTER A LITTLE TRIMMING.  I'D RECOMMEND WIDE DVD CASES FOR THESE
NES CARTS REALLY NEED A LOT OF CHOPPING TO FIT..SO I'D USE WIDE DVD COVERS.
PAL SNES FIT OK VERTICALLY IN THE UGC'S
PAL MEGADRIVE FIT OK AS WELL

Sebastian, with regard to you now collecting Neo Geo.  I found a site that sells snap cases ($8.50 US) and provides the sleeves for you to print yourself or can do them for you for $3 US.  I have access to a nice colour photocopier that does A3 prints at work, so im very lucky and can save the $3.  I believe that the company ships internationally and also sells UGCs individually.  I'll dig out their web site a little later on.

I have gotten the neo geo i bought to half work.  A good spruce up of the cart pins and slot should finally fix it.

Thanks
Lish

Would be very nice to know the website but I really hope I can keep the Neo Geo games in their original boxes now that kaiserwave told me(and I looked a little bit around too) how beautiful those special cases are!

What was wrong with your Neo Geo?

Regards Sebastian

EDIT: I just finished scanning all the needed intellivision covers in for ya lish.... One hast 15MB so puloading them to the site will take a while.... Hope you can use them because some off them are pretty used.... I did my best in scanning them in at the highest possible quality!

hey satoshi, you willing to part with your colecovision games,let me know .we could trade or sell.let me know.i loovvvvvvvvveeeeeeeee junpman jr!!

[satoshi_matrix]

yeah sure, just post what you want in the other thread and give me the details. I'm not quite sure if theres a difference between the ADAM computer and the Colecovision because some of the games say "For ADAM & Colecovision" while others don't.

Time to start building that Intellivision collection, now that I have confirmed that they fit snugly in the UGC's (although in a location not perceived by the designers)

I've added five more intelivision cases.  Here are two of them, including one by tiktektak..

I'm also trialling a new way to attach images...so fingers crossed.

Heres another of Tiktektaks scans.

[tiktektak]

Nice, nice, nice....

Great Intellivision covers!

I have a bunch of Atari 2600 games, and they would fit nicely in the universal media cases by just shaving off just a few centimeters from the plastic in the case.  They also would fit without any modding, it's just that they would rattle around in the case.  If there is anyone else out there who wants to do this with 2600 games, there is a website called www.atariage.com that has box scans for tons of games.  The quality of the boxes greatly vary, but most of them are decent and have front and back scans.  I am not too sure what the dpi of the images are though, so I am not sure if they would work.  But, if they do it could be a great shortcut for Atari 2600 covers.
