did make lots of crappy cheap sports titles in Japan... :p
In the usa, you can get ex blockbuster cases, they are made to fit anything. I got alomst a hundred when they got rid of carts at the local video stores.
yeah could buy some cheap games suppose
assembler, do you have any left per chance if so would u sell a few ?
Sadly, the hundred cases went to fit.. a hundred games..
You don't have any cases over there that had those ugly oversized EA games in it? Anything sports should do.
yeah just tried that but dont fit eithr way hehe dum designers hehe
you know that there are 2 types of pal cases right? ;)
yep, well actually theres 3 :p
1 - Normal Case ege what sonic and sonnic 2 and sonon comes in
2 - EA Games as they are bigger and have abuilt in memory chip
3 - JCarts from codemasters are rounded at the top so there diff as well
and then you have the one of cases
like for
Virtual Racer - hugh mother of a cart with its svp chip
Sonic & Knuckles - massive lock on technology on top so case design is difff again
i was just talking of 2 different versions of the standard cases
one that came with the first games and one that comes with the games after MD II was released.
ur talkin about the different layout on the front
with the big blue band down the side
thats one difference ;)Originally Posted by kevster
the boxes also differ
the MD1 boxes have big "claws" inside to hold the cartridge and which also scratch the cartridge after some use of it, the MD2 box uses other plastic trays to hold the cartridge
the MD2 box has a way more comfortable tray for the manual, holds better and doesn't destroy the manual
also, the MD1 box open in the middle of the side with a "knack" and the MD2 boxes slide open very softly ;) without any sounds :P
if you want, i can show you with photos
yes please
cheers
ok, here we go:
Oldstyle (MegaDrive I Cases)
That's the side of the case, clear to see: opens in the middle:
Inside the case on the left, the two hooks up and below to hold the manual (often destroys it...):
Inside on the right, the cartridge tray, with two hooks on each side to hold the cartridge (scratches it when used too often):
Newstlye (MegaDrive 2 Cases)
Side of the second version case, opens not in the middle, opens more softly because of an other opening technique used inside:
The inner left side, now with 2 braces to hold the manual, thumbs up, this is smooth :)
and of course, the inner right side, the cartridge tray, clear to see, no more hooks, but fits perfectly:
Outward appereance:
I think everybody know the difference, but here are two pics to show you, if you don't:
cheers, liquitt
