+OLD CS1 Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 I have been going through and making replacement labels for my cartridges which have damaged or missing labels. I was about to sit down and work on Micro-Pinball (II in the game, but not the label,) when I realized, hey, Micro-Tennis has the same label but in a different position. I thought MP was missing an end label up to that point. Can someone tell me which of these cartridges has its label in the proper position?

WhataKowinkydink Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 The DataBiotics cart I have look like the one on the left - but that is a singular example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Placement of the later style DataBioTics labels was a bit hit-and-miss. I have seen a lot of them with the large-style labels on the top (like the right-hand cartridge) and a smaller number with the label across the front of the cartridge (like the left-hand label). Both placements are period-correct, so I would just use the method that looks best to you when making replacements. Note also that a lot of DBT cartridges had earlier end-label variants, which were of much higher production quality. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually thought the MP label was missing until I pulled them all out. It feels like its label is pretty well attached to the top and I might not be able to remove or move it without causing damage, so I think it can stay. Maybe I will use my larger label maker to do a better end label for viewing in the case. I made a nice-looking replacement for Beyond Parsec, but the one on it now I made back in around 1989. I think it can stay for a while. I have several DBT carts with the nicer labels. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
