8-bit Cartridge Label Project

Recommended Posts

Other useful recreations:

  • Atari 800 ROM/RAM (CX801/CX853) card labels. Many of the units I see for sale have surprisingly faded/damaged labels.
  • Serial number labels.  For those of us who have damaged/missing labels - or want a new label after retrobrighting!  (Of course there's a potential for abuse, here, but that's true of all these things...)

@WilheimIf you post a list of the ones you've converted, I'll put the labels on my to-do list

@ZuluGula That's awesome, thanks!

 

Sure, I have converted:

1. The Eidolon.

2. The Goonies.

3. Conan: Hall of Volta.

4. Spy vs Spy for 400/800 and XL/XE.

5. Adept: Archon II.

 

The cartridge version of Koronis Rift was converted by @Wrathchild

 

Thank you so much!

Hi! I tried to learn some image editing tools to try, and I made this cover and label for The Eidolon. I used the cover from Mobygames to start and then reconstructing the Epyx logo, the Lucasfilm Games banner, the background, the bottom-right corner, and so on. These are the results:

Thanks to @Mr Robot for sharing the XEGS labels, on which I based The Eidolon label.

 

Cheers!

First Parker Brothers label, (The only one I actually own) and Astro Chase, now with rounded corners.

Full size versions on my website blah blah bla

 

 

Did I get the top Astro Chase logo up the right way? They didn't put a lot of effort into some of these labels did they? The box art is so nice and they just didn't bother using it.
