The Atari 5200 Label Thread!

[classicgamingguy]

Here's a quick label I whipped up...  Frenzy 

 

The sequel to Berzerk, it's another under-rated arcade game that I've always regretted there was never a home version made.  I used to play this a lot at the arcade back in the day!

 

(sorry it's kinda cheap, I'm not much of an artist)

I remember Frenzy...and I am rather disappointed the home version was never made. I think my old arcade used to have Berzerk and Frenzy side by side...what a classic duo. I wish it was possible to remake it for the 5200.. That would be too cool!!

Do you one that is uncompressed JPG (TIF or PSD)?  If you look at the ghost on the left and Pac-Man, you get some mixed coloring from compression.  Otherwise looks great.

 

Thanks,

Here you go I posted both TIF and PSD zip files of the label and the newer look of the JPG pic with better color on the Ghost and Pacman. I hope they look better^_^;

Much better. Had to fix couple minor graphical glitches, but very clean otherwise. Here is a label from my photoshop template.

Has this one been done yet? sorry if I'm copying the idea

 

I just whipped this up using Paint Shop Pro 9

[jnice]

The nation is threatened with a major terrorist attack. Our only hope is for one man to infiltrate their headquarters, armed only with a gun, tactical support from the Counter Terrorist Unit, and a CX52 joystick.

 

That man is JACK BAUER...

 

 

I was going to make an X-Files cart, but had a hard time finding a good picture for one. It looks like they're already making X-Files games for the new systems, or so my Google search led me to believe.

While bumping around the net one day I ran across these Atariboy images,

If you make five new labels we will all forget we ever saw it.

This is an Atari 8-bit game that needs to be ported to the 5200

To videogameaddict: Ecch! That should have been called Steroids!

[Atariboy2600]

For thouse that dont know yet some one found a Atari 8-bit game of Sinistar well like alot of you some one may try to port it on the 5200 game cart so here's my take on the label, plus a old Sinstar Poster from Atari that I use for the label art^_^

[+Allan]

Here's one for Backgammon.

Yo, Allan!

 

How about making "Shaft" into a 5200 cart?

[BLIX]

A little Zombie action for the 5200.

 

[+Cafeman]

Make a "Greatest American Hero" or "Street Hawk" one!

[BLIX]

Great show, I gotta pickup the DVD set

 

[Lauren Tyler]

How do you do this? I mean, I'd think there's like a template or something required for it?

 

I use Photoshop 5 to cut & paste the images on top of the label cart and some tine I use Atari fonts in case I need to make up the numbers and texts.

Unfortunately, GIMP, while some say it's a good substitute for Photoshop, doesn't seem to quite cut the mustard, as I can't quite seem to figure out how to properly copy a label and paste it onto the 5200 cartridge as you mentioned.
