Well,m here I go again, moving off topic somewhat.  This time with Sega Master system Scans sized for the Iniversal Game Case.  Do master system games fit into the Case I hear you ask?  Well, I really dont know but presume at worst they will fit a little loosely in the SNES spot.  Given that SMS games came in aplastic case, why do we need the game covers scanned?  I have about 40 master system games and about half of those have faded covers.  It would be great to return to that vibrant look.  About 1/4 have damaged boxes.  Many more people must be in the same boat.

Over the past few days I have uploaded some 3DO, Hanimex, Sega 32X, Amstrad GX4000, Intellivision, and now Master system game covers.  As these are not grouped under headings on the site, I loaded them to various sections hoping that the moderator can distinguish between them.  Whether I continue to upload these different covers will depend on your (and the moderators) acceptance.

The SNES and N64 scene seams to be booming.  I have added four new SNES games in the last two days, but all of my 50 or so N64 games are already uploaded (although five of my PAL versions are significantly different to warrant upload. Countless others are also sending these up the phone line so very soon, I think these projects will ne nearing completion.  Other areas I am interested in are Atari 800, 2600, and 7800 (I have one of each).  I have some 50 games and zero boxes.  I could download the front and back covers from other sites and create a custim spine to finalise a Case insert.  Do Atari carts fit into the universal games case?



Here are thumbs of the scans anyway FYI.

No Metroid on N64, What was Nintendo thinking? ;)

If the games fit in the cases, then why not. I've got about 12 boxed games I could add if needed.
Have to get back to you on the titles though.

I found this today for the bargain price of 75p. Had to be done.

Winter Olympics 94


It's the later Kixx release and ditches the white checked look for a dark blue colour scheme.

Anyone know what happened to the Winter Olympics cover? The link has gone down and I can't find it anywhere in the Upload Index? Has it been deleted?

I checked all your covers and something was wrong with the Winter Olympics cover.... As far as I can remember it was wrongly sized... I delete everything which is not ok.... Sorry that I can't tell everyone.... I upload so much at once most of the time that this would be extremly time consuming....

@Lish:

If it will help, I have a lot of instruction manuals for Atari 2600 and 7800, and in most cases the coverart was the same as the manual art. between that and the summary given in the manual, you could easily make custom covers. Figured I'd ask first though, don't know your stance on customs.

Enduro Racer (E.U)



Another type of M.S cover that i have put into the template i am working on. Hope to have it so you can mix'n'match the types of front,back and spine by clicking their visibility icon. I labelled this as type one...



...and this as type two. Does anyone know all the genre types for this cover. I have Action,Arcade,Shooting,Family,Sports and Adventure Role Playing so far. Any advance on that?  :)

On the Rastan cover where its says Arcade, there is also a 3-D designation that as far as I know only appears on Poseidon Wars 3-D.  4 other 3-D games (Maze Hunter 3D, Space Harrier 3D, Zaxxon 3D and Blade Eagle 3D) have a red triangle at the top middle front of the cover that says Sega Scope 3D.  I have all these if you need a scan.

I'll get them scanned in for you, they're U.S. releases though.  Is that OK.

Yup..that's fine. I believe they are largely the same anyway. Thanks again. :)
