_Fandal_ Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Here are some games I bought from Video 61, I did my own labels I would like to buy Mean 18 but I can't find it on their pages... F. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retrobits Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 how do you make labels that fit so nicely? also, those look glossy -- how do you print gloss labels? I'd really like to do something similar. any recommendations of software/media? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjlazer Posted January 28, 2007 Author Share Posted January 28, 2007 I printed them to size on HP everyday photo paper. Then I let them dry and apply clear laminent and press it down with something hard like the end of a screwdriver handle with the backing of the laminent sheet (to protect the plastic from scratches) I then used a papercutter to cut them to size! Then rounded off the edges carefully with scissors! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F. He's got them. Send him an email. This is also a prototype from Atari, not a hacked game! Says © Copyright 1989 Atari Corp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+davidcalgary29 Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 Here are some games I bought from Video 61, I did my own labels I would like to buy Mean 18 but I can't find it on their pages... F. Ooh, I don't know if I'd do that. Mean 18, IMO, is the absolute worst cartridge game for the A8 line...and that includes such stellar company as Hypnotic Land and Jinks. I realize that this is an unfinished proto, but ugh. I bought my copy of Mean 18 as a bank-switchable XEGS game from one of B&C's other pirated XEGS games. It sure as hell is the only way that I'd part money for this piece o' crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 That Mean 18 label looks so authentic, I bet that's exactly what the real label would have looked like...

Goochman Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 I just wish they'd release Xenophobe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
www.atarimania.com Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Kinda depressing when you think how many protos are still out there: Xenophobe, Ninja Golf, Skyfox, Liberator... -- Atari Frog http://www.atarimania.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avram Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Atarimania - besides those four protoypes, what else is out there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Kinda depressing when you think how many protos are still out there: Xenophobe, Ninja Golf, Skyfox, Liberator... -- Atari Frog http://www.atarimania.com Well Liberator has never been found, we just know that it was worked on at one point. Xenophobe and Mat Mainia are the only two games I know of that have known prototypes that haven't been dumped yet. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goochman Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Video 61 had Berzerk and Stargate (aka Defender II) for sale. I got both. They announced Xenophobe as coming soon but never sold it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
www.atarimania.com Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Wasn't Curt Vendel in touch with the programmer of Liberator a few years ago? Ninja Golf was programmed as well (says the coder of the 7800 version). Someone at Infogrames is believed to have a copy of Skyfox... I'm sure Tempest has more information but there are at least 20-25 games from Atari out there... Hard to say how many are finished products but you're bound to find a number of educational games on disk, Elevator Action, some stuff from Atari's UK division, Borrowing Money / Saving Money, Winter Games (the box exists) and probably a lot more odd stuff from the early days... Curt also posted a memo some time ago with release dates, I can't find it right now though... Pretty certain there are also Tigervision, Epyx, Activision, Datasoft, Synapse Software... protos. Two titles from Roklan as well... -- Atari Frog http://www.atarimania.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Guitarman Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 I recently made a deal to purchase an Atari collection from someone who was close to Atari. I think he said his Dad had a friend inside, so he would always get disks with new and unreleased stuff on them. He mentioned one of the disks had The Last Starfighter and other protos on it, which I know is now commonly available, but there may be something in the collection that hasn't been found yet. I plan on archiving all the disks when I get them and will look for anything that hasn't made it out yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
