Guest Posted May 25, 2003 Share Posted May 25, 2003 funny. i just put theme park in my jag. and it seems that that game also makes use of the overlay buttons. i wonder why they didnt add overlays to their game if it made use of overlays...

GOVmole Posted May 25, 2003 Share Posted May 25, 2003 price, it would drive up the cost of production. T2K's use of the keypad is so minimal it doesnt effect gameplay and I rarely use it so its not a loss not havieng an overlay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBizDude Posted May 25, 2003 Share Posted May 25, 2003 These are the ones that have overlays: http://www.atariage.com/system_items.html?...mTypeID=OVERLAY There are overlays for Worms, Skyhammer and Battleshere, too. Anybody know of any others? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anybody know of any others? There are some other custom ones. I bought them all some time ago. I'm not sure if that guy is still making them. Just from memory (since I put them in with the games), there is also: Air Cars (on box as well) Missile Command 3-d World Tour Racing Iron Soldier 2 Ummmm.....That's all I can remember off hand....

Gunstar Posted May 25, 2003 Share Posted May 25, 2003 Iron Soldier overlay works well for 2, since the controls are exactly the same. I printed off a bunch from somewhere a long time ago, and lamenated them; a replacement Wolfenstein, Tempest, Atarikarts, Zero5, Missle command VR and 3D, I got some duplicates of my AvP's off the net, and use those and not the originals as most know how the paint can chip off around the buttons on the originals. I wanted to minimize the damage. So, there are some images floating around, I've seen several for certain games (variations). If you buy them, they will be real overlays, if you print them, just paper and lamanent,...or cardstock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOVmole Posted May 25, 2003 Share Posted May 25, 2003 Mr biz dude, im presumeing that the worms, battlesphere and skyhammer overlays werent ever released with the games, becuase i own skyhammer and battlesphere bought directly from the companies, but there are no overlays. i did make up a skyhammer overlay from a print out of the one that is in the manual.

I'll answer for Biz Dude, no neither of those games came with overlays. However, there was a guy some time ago that was selling overlays that he had made for all the games. The overlays were really nice. I bought 1 of each and 2 controller cover overlays..... Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
