Custom Made Sleeves

[matthew954]

Hey I wanted to show off the custom made sleeves for the 2600 and 7800 I made. I found this guys YouTube video and downloaded his plans. I added some color from a 2600 cover from Cover Project, and added some vector clip art I found on Google. They look great I think. I used my copy of Galaxian 2600 to make sure I got the shape right so the games will fit nice and snug.

This is awesome. They look good, man! I'm gonna give this a try.

Those look great! They'd be perfect for Coleco and Odyssey 2 cartridges as well.

It would be cool to adapt them for something like the Atari 5200, 400/800, Jaguar, or other cartridge format that didn't have end labels; the title could be printed on the side for easy identification.

Thanks guys, yeah they turned out great. Though I will say my Coleco Atari carts aren't exactly a sure fit. The grips on the sides tend to get caught on the paper sleeves.

 

And id say for the 5200 and likely the Jag too, the SNES cover could be adapted.

I can imagine that kind of clean, simple sleeve, being used on pack-in games back in the Atari VCS era, but probably of better quality stock than they might have used then. I likey.

Oh this looks amazing, I wish I had a computer to do this. Nonetheless, a great solution to protecting older games and keeping them nice and neat!

And best of all they are super easy and cheap to make. I do need to design one myself for the 5200 since I just started collecting for it.
