If there is one system platform that needed a decent 3D box image set, its GBA. There is only one GBA 3D box set I have ever seen. It was uploaded on Hyperspin over a decade ago. It was great for the time, but it used fake spines and the dimensions are small. Most of that set is the 3D art found in the games db for most of the GBA games. This collection includes 1,138 boxes, All North American releases, most euro exclusives, some Japan exclusives. All those crappy GBA Video boxes and all the great Famicom Mini boxes included. I didnt include most of the multi game packs because most of them had a single release. PSD templates are included. The american and euro boxes use the same template for GB and GBC. Feel free to upload some of these to the Games DB. Any questions, let me know. Enjoy!

**This removes the nag screen that informs you if a rom doesn't work correctly, or if at all, if you use this no nag, then please do NOT go to the mame support site with issues with games, please only use if you understand that there will be no help from anyone at mamedev as you are using a modified version of mame. Contents: mame.exe - Normal Mame with Nags removed. (Note mame no longer carries the 64 in its exe name changed by Devs in 0.229) This version also allows the games Akai Katana and Dodonpachi Saidaioujou to be played. It's advisable to download the full mame official pack and install it, then just overwrite the exe with the replacement, this covers any changes the mame devs may have made to the support files. After you have done this, make sure you copy the folders artwork, ctrlr, cheat, hlsl, ini, folders and the ini files from the root of your original mame folder, and move/copy them to the new install. If you are using your own installed/setup of mame then make sure you also set in the mame.ini 'Skip_gameinfo 1' If you got Launchbox to setup mame for you when asked, you only need to replace the exe and play. As some are not sure about False Positives, and report a virus was detected, As goes for all versions i upload, they are all ran through virustotal before i upload, and if by any chance something did end up with an issue it would be noticed very quickly after upload and would be removed/restricted. 0.277 - https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/6d21042a6ed3cdfd2b252dcc15cfb3e3c8b69b3ca2dbd0c0add6d3b080716292?nocache=1 All NEW versions of the No-Nag will be posted in this download thread only, if you wish to get the new releases every month, either follow myself or the thread, As the download section will not show any new releases.

This is a giant collection of platform logos drawn digitally by hand. This took well over 500 hours of work over 15 months. While console logos exist all over the internet, this collection aims to bring them to a higher level of polish and accuracy. The default logos in BigBox will now come from this set. It was extremely tedious to ensure a very high level of accuracy across thousands of files. So Many Versions! Each included platform has multiple logo variants. Basically, many consoles had different logos for different regions and time periods. There are also smaller variations such as with or without a trademark (tm). There are black and white versions for each of these. With all of these it can add up to over 50 small variations for one platform! This would be impossible to navigate so I’ve split them up into smaller categories. For each format (Normal, Large and SVG) there are Light and Dark folders. For either of those there are: “Color”, “Black & White” and “Just White” (or Just Black respectively). If you wanted to use a minimalistic dark theme, you could use the “Just White” versions for a contemporary look. If you wanted logos for a standard dark theme then you could use “Light - Color”. Official Versions Included Besides the many hand drawn logos, I’ve also curated multiple logos that are the OFFICIAL renderings. Meaning, vector art ripped from official sources such as websites and pdf manuals. Finding official source art in the wild is pretty uncommon and required many hours of digging. Most of the source art was not in color so most of these colors are still generated by me. Some of the platforms with official logos include: Sadly, some of these wasted a lot of my time because I drew them and later found the official versions. The Drawing Process: My process for drawing a logo required many steps. I first did research on each logo. Then I would dig deep for the best references I could find. One rule I had was to never trust any image. I would compare multiple sources and make sure the source I chose was not fan made or some modern re-release that changed the logo. If a better source was found that showed differences from what I drew I would redraw it again (it sucked). I redrew the NEO GEO logo about 5 times before I was finally happy with it. Generally, source art would include box art images, adverts, brochures, and manual scans. Archive.org and Manualslib.com were a huge help for a lot of these scans. I would then use the pen tool in Adobe Illustrator and go to town! Sometimes if my source was really amazing, I could finish the whole logo in an hour and a half or so. Other times it would take much, much longer. Getting the correct color was always challenging and required intelligent guesswork. For example, with the classic Konami logo, I brought in 20 images. Gathered the color from all of those and found the average color for the red and orange. Then I’d tweak it slightly more, usually to improve saturation. When it came to fonts, I would always search for it but rarely found exact matches. If the font was found I’d obviously use it, but If not I’d have to hand draw it. However, a couple of the smaller taglines/subtitles do use a very close match. Hand drawing those fonts would do more harm than good. While drawing a logo I took great care to make things as visually pleasing as possible. Every little section of each letter of each logo was considered. Curves were carefully made to be smooth with as few anchor points as possible. Letters align with each other and angled letters all share the same angle. Hand drawing fonts is very tricky. Many logos were substantially harder than I’d anticipated. The Sega Saturn US logo for instance, drove me insane. It took over 40 hours to draw (not to mention wasted time from failed attempts months earlier). I used Adobe Illustrator to mimic every highlight, tiny color shift, shading and glow. When I was working on this logo, I’d come home from my graphic design day job and then spend 4 hours on it, which would only finish part of one letter. As I worked, I’d have a couple copies of the logo in the same file and a couple times it bottomed out 32GB of ram! Unique Versions This collection brings a few unique logos to the table. I’m just going to list a few. I created multiple new arcade and pinball logos, although previous arcade logos are here too. I highly polished the Daphne logo as it needed some love. I drew a detailed version of the TeknoParrot logo which seems to be uncommon in high resolution. I also created Sega system 16 and 32 arcade logos based on the exact font used in the Sega 32X and Sega CD (Copperplate Gothic Std 31AB stretched horizontally to 130%). The Capcom logos have stylized alternate versions based on a gradated version Capcom rarely uses. There are several other unique logos I could list here. White Outline - Default Versions Since these logos are replacing the default logos in BigBox, Faeran smartly requested that I create versions with white outlines around the outside. That way logos could be seen against any background color. I only made the outline versions for the options I gave to Faeran. I don’t plan on making outline versions for the rest of the variations. That said, the versions I did make are included here. The outline versions don’t look quite as nice in my opinion but they serve a very functional and important purpose. Solid black logos for some systems, like the PSP, would not be visible in certain themes without a white outline. However, theme creators or those wanting to add logos to a single theme, I would still recommend the non-outline versions for the cleanest look. Conclusion I included every platform and version that I wanted to. There are some more obscure ones I could draw but I didn’t see the need to seeing as how I've created 22,000 files as is. If I knew how much work this was going to take, I would've never gotten myself into this (lol). I hope that you guys get a lot of enjoyment out of these. I’m glad I made them and it feels really good to finally be able to upload them. I made these originally for LaunchBox but they can be used elsewhere. I will always appreciate credit if you use them. Needless to say, I don’t own the rights to the logos and these are NEVER to be sold in any way. Thanks Special thanks to Juketstu and Faeran for their valuable feedback. Also, huge thanks again to Faeran and the LaunchBox team for using these as the new defaults for BigBox!

Happy Holidays everyone, Its been quite some time since I shared a set with everyone. I have been working on several sets and have a bunch more still cooking. Just slower and more picky these days with what's shared. I have created a new Master System/Genesis/Mega Drive "2.5 D" Box art template from scratch using scalable vector shapes and Adobe Photoshop layer styles for realism. This box template is accurate to the original as I used my own box as a source. Comparing this to what else is out there this is both the highest in resolution and the most accurate. While I am personally not a fan or have any nostalgia for the Master System it was looking a bit sad in my collection with a lot of low quality cover art. This set is extremely high quality and large files hence the size of this download. This is all 114 released NTSC Master System games following the no-intro naming scheme. When dropping these in your Launchbox build there may be a few boxes that do not autoload due to the name differences between how Launchbox scrapes the games and what no-intro names them. Therefore you may have to manually update a few image names to your liking or use an alternate name within Launchbox itself. As always any issues with any images please reach out. If there are any errors or something does not seem right please reach out! Stay tuned in 2025 for more art work sets! (The wait is worth it as there are some very good sets to be coming out!)

Huge collection of Sony Playstation box images, complete with retail spines. All USA games included, along with Euro exclusives and same Japanese games that have translations. All the long box games are here WITH spines (finally). Long box releases that also had jewel case releases are also here. I also included all Greatest Hits games (there were a lot more than I thought). Sadly, only one Collector's Edition box is here. I couldnt find high quality scans of any of those. I included box templates in PSD format if anyone needs it. Cropped front and spines are also available the download. I will also upload 3D boxes. There are almost 1700 game boxes and I tried to be as accurate as possible. If anyone finds a mistake let me know. Enjoy!

Proper update is coming in about a week (06/08/24). More games and fixes! 8 Months (so far), 3550 games, 100's of hours configuring and too many late nights to count..... this is the MAME Arcade Pre Config Project. If you want show your appreciation and support the project and myself please check put my Patreon https://www.patreon.com/warpedpolygon No need to use the importer with the provided custom platform xml. I fully recommend using this to get the most out of what's been done. If you have been following along you know what the score is. If you are new here, let me explain what all this is. MAME is awesome, however like many other emulators it doesn't know what your use case is, how can it. So, it's defaults are more of a 'one size fits all... but not perfectly' kind of deal. As a result getting things setup can be a mine field. This isn't just down to MAME defaults, plenty of games present you with a bunch of hoops to jump through just to play the damn thing. This, on top of figuring out controls, (which is the main point here) can be a very frustrating experience. Even google can come up short sometimes leaving you to fumble around in the dark. Removing this frustration is the whole point of the project. I see lots of github requests for MAME that aren't emulation issues, they're configuration and setup issues. This project should alleviate the rage of most users. FOR CONTROL PAD USERS. So, let's just get into the stuff you wanna hear. To keep it simple I'm gonna list what IS here and what ISN'T here: WHAT IS HERE Every working Parent ROM has been configured. Although, some games listed as NOT WORKING do indeed work to some degree. These have also been configured to future proof the project. Clones and/or preferred versions have been identified, configured and added in ADDITION to their parent counterparts. This could be an uncensored Japanese version, control hack, translation or even a sequel. In some instances an entirely different game can be a clone version. This is such an important part of the project. All English region Names/Versions have been configured. You may know a game by a completely different name depending on your region. All English versions with different names have been configured. So, if it's Buck Rogers: Planet of Zoom, or just Zoom 909 to you, you'll be able to find it. It'll have that title in game also. I haven't just duplicated the parent version and changed the name in LB. All games have been tested and controls configured for XINPUT Controllers. This has been done per game. Some games needed ages spent on them to figure what the hell was going on. Robocop 2 has diagonals that need mapping to the second player joystick, despite being a one player game. So, you can imagine the time and testing that went in. Multiplayer games set to work with maximum players. Pretty much 70% of 4 player games were setup for 2 players by default. Games that remove the character selection for 4 players have had their 2 player versions also added so you have the choice. Multi screen games set for both one and two screen use. You will have the choice to launch the 1 screen or 2 screen version without having to set everything up. These maybe listed a 1 and 2 player variants. All analog games have had their sensitivity checked and changed if needed. Yes, the trackball Sonic game works just fine despite what people say. Every configured game has a control layout image. Working Prototypes are here. English set for Japanese only games wherever possible. There's more than you think. Unlockable/hidden content pre unlocked. Keep in mind some cheats for hidden content are a one time use and don't save to NVRAM. Fighting game button layouts are setup to all be the same. Exactly the same as Street Fighter 2 on SNES for 6 button fighters. Light gun games set for controller AND mouse usage. Inaccurate games have been calibrated. Widescreen games set to pixel aspect. Technical hoops already jumped through. Much, much, much more. WHAT ISN'T HERE Mah-jong games that use a Mah-jong panel. These simply have too many inputs to map to a controller. Mah-jong games that use a joystick are here. Japanese quiz games. Gambling and video poker games. Basically anything with a BET, HOLD input system. Japanese clone versions, UNLESS they are preferred or have additional content. Truly non working games that simply black screen. Any arcade platforms better emulated outside of MAME for e.g. Sega Model 2 & 3. ABOUT THE PLATFORM XML A lot of work has gone into making sure these games are all accounted for in the xml. There were a bunch of roms that weren't recognised by the importer or games that simply haven't yet been added to the Database. I have made sure that these have been added and named correctly before I start changing/updating the database. Also, I have gone the extra mile and added version info in the title of the game if there are multiples of the same game. So, you will see The Simpsons (2 Player) and The Simpsons (4 Players) as separate versions for extra convenience. PlayChoice-10 games and mega play games have also had this info added to the title so you know exactly what version is being selected, despite sharing the same name as other versions/games. MAME SET ADVICE AND MERGED ROMS Despite my previous statements, Non-Merged is the best for sooo many reasons. I plead with you, just go non merged and you'll have a better time. However, I have been accommodating and everything has been setup for Merged set users also. But, having games setup as individual roms is way easier to manage than using a merged set and selecting/expanding different versions. This presented a problem that I cant be asked to explain. The long and short is MERGED SET USERS WILL NEED TO USE THE DUMMY ZIP FILES PROVIDED TO BE ABLE TO LAUNCH CLONES. This is so LaunchBox has something to grab onto and launch the game. Is it an elegant solution....NO. Does it just work and future proof any updates and changes that MAME may make to the Merged set...YES. This is because there's a dummy zip for every game, simply copy paste them into your roms folder and DO NOT REPLACE any files that are already present. DO NOT REPLACE. DO NOT REPLACE. Not all Merged set users are going to like that solution. My advice if you are not wanting to use dummy zips....get a Non-Merged set. INSTRUCTIONS Download CFG, NVRAM and Control Layout Images Put CFG and NVRAM files in the cfg and nvram folders of MAME Use Images however you want. I like to put these in the Screenshot - Gameplay images folder so they display in the side bar. If you don't use a gameplay screenshots this is a nice solution outside of BigBox. This has been made for use with XINPUT controllers. If you aren't using an XINPUT controller you can use DS4windows or it's alternative. USING THE ARCADE PLATFORM XML Download the Arcade.xml (Merged Set users ONLY) Grab ALL the DUMMY ZIPS and place in Roms folder. DO NOT REPLACE anything that is already there. Backup your old xml just in case if you have one. Make sure LaunchBox is not running Place Arcade.xml into Data->Platforms folder in LaunchBox Start LaunchBox. The Arcade platform should be showing now. Select all games in the Arcade platform (Ctrl+A), then go to Tools->File Management->Change ROMs Folder Path for Selected Games Find your ROMs folder and select it. Don't forget to set your emulator path and set it as the default for Arcade platform. PLAY!!! This project will be kept up to date moving forward. If you have any info, suggestions or whatever just holler in the comments.

Here are the backgrounds I used to customize @faeran's beautiful VisioN theme ! It mainly features backgrounds for playlists, but also a few for platforms and platform categories. Most of the backgrounds relate to 304 game collections. Some are taken directly from faeran's theme, but the vast majority are new, with the occasional alternative version (file name followed by one or more +), and as far as possible directly related to the games in question. All are cropped for the “platform wheel 1” display of faeran's VisioN theme on a 16/9 screen (once again, thanks to him for his themes and this one in particular) . The backgrounds are not, for the most part, in 4k but are of sufficient quality for this type of display. The preview screenshots show them and the logos I used with the theme (screenshots on 16/9 4K screen, unretouched). I've also added the corresponding logos to the archive. What's inside : 689 backgrounds + 390 logos ! - 584 playlist backgrounds grouped into 304 game collections and 19 arcade playlists + 323 logos - 84 platform backgrounds for 58 platforms + 58 logos - 21 category backgrounds for 9 categories (in the broadest sense, also includes "Favorite Games", "Recently Played"...) + 9 logos I hope you'll like it ! All platform logos are from @RetroHumanoid's Refried Theme Platform Logo Set, as well as a few logos for the collections. Some platform category logos also come from his Retro Neon Platform Category Logo Set. I hope he doesn't mind. If he wishes, I can of course remove the logos concerned from the archive, which is simply a copy of the custom theme I use. Also a big thank you to him for his work ! BigBox HD.mp4

Sorry for the poor quality, i will replace it with a more detailed extended version when I have more time. MUCH BETTER VIDEOS: By DonellHD DESCRIPTION: I am possibly the biggest Coverbox fanboy in these forums, I've loved it since I was made aware of its existence. It was my go to for over a year of retro gaming. After using it for a while I started to notice areas that could be improved upon, eventually leading to me wanting to do something about it. After getting permission from Faeran I started adding in all the stuff I wished Coverbox had. I found it more flexible to make each platform a individual theme so I could have full control over all the views per platform, music, all the cool things that come with individual theme settings. Basically what we are left with is a super badass version of coverbox that's all "fragmented" into individual themes. Its got all the flashy stuff of a modern theme but still retains that sweet warm glow of Coverbox. I started making a "core" theme that was supposed to be a bridge between these fragments and the main platform theme, called "PlatformBox". It was put on the back burner and I never got back to it, I plan to make that eventually. So for now these will only work if applied in game view mode (the view that lists your games). Meaning, you have to go into that platform to the game list then apply the corresponding theme to see its effect. WARNING: These themes may not work well on low performance machines! I do not have a low spec pc to test them on. Im working on that in the newer versions so everybody can enjoy it.

Here is my Launchbox theme, imaginatively titled "Frogg". This is a rework of the default theme, as there were a number of things I wanted to change. See the second screenshot for a list of the changes made. Most of the changes were to the game details pane. I also removed the rounded edges from the boxes in the main grid view. The platform tree is the same. Overall I wanted to maximise the use of available screen area and show as much metadata as possible, minimising the necessity to scroll. Some scrolling is still required to view the retroachievements and related games, but for general game browsing often no scrolling is required to see the banner, images, metadata and notes. The very latest default them has returned to having the related game in a separate tab; I might update this theme at some point to incorporate that (now done with version 2 of this theme). I have an ultrawide monitor and this theme makes good use of the extra screen real estate. If your monitor isn't quite as wide you can resize the game details pane to your satisfaction. Also, I have a separate marquee screen on which the banner is displayed. That's why I kept the scratched arcade marquee aesthetic with the clear logo in the game details pane. It probably fits the theme better than the marquee anyway. A few things I'd like to change with updated versions (any help with these would be appreciated): - the height of the image preview area; videos fill the space well, though for the images it only uses around 80% of the available height. It looks OK but it's something I want to improve - I'd like to have Retroachievements in a separate tab, like "related games" has; same for MAME high scores

If there was one system platform that needed a decent 2D front and spine image set, its GBA. There are some decent GBA 2D front image collections out there, but none of them include spine images. I tried to be as accurate as possible and I think most of the FRONT covers are accurate, some spines images may be completely custom tho. (no, I dont have a list of the ones that might be completely custom, I should have kept track). And yes some front covers are upscaled, but not to the point where they look terrible. All North American games are included, along with most Euro exclusives. All the shitty GBA Video movie "games" are included, but it was hard to find decent source scans for most of them. I did not include most of the 2 or 3 game packs that had a single release. The 2 or 3 game packs I did include, are those that did NOT have a single release. Some Japanese exclusives that have been translated or use english menus have been included, but not many. I did include ALL Famicom Mini boxes that were only released in Japan, only because the boxes are cool. I did include PSD templates for the various box styles, for those that may want to create their own boxes that were not included here. Enjoy this much needed set. Any questions, let me know. I will upload a 3D Box version of this (that is the main reason I create these sets).

DESCRIPTION: Hello everyone, I spent the last few weeks working on a new style for my platform themes, previously known as Coverbox Fragments, which is based off of Faeran's Coverbox. It's a series of individual platform themes based off of actual console bios/menus. I had first planned to just start where I left off with it and make new fragments for it, that later changed as I felt the need to do more than I did before. I always wanted to make use of all the views, instead of binding myself only to the text view. So, I have a proposition...I want to redo them all in this new style. Knowing that I would have to rebuild the fragments when CTC 3.2 came around was always a thought in the back of my mind. Why wait I say, sounds way more fun to make them all again from scratch with CTC 3.2. Now I can create more views than before, implement the new features of CTC 3.2, and push BigBox to its limit. I decided on a new project name since it isn't focused on one view anymore, i named it Nostalgic Memories because that's what this project reminds me of the entire time I'm making them. I had a lot of fun making this first one, I'm excited to start on another. I plan on making one of these for each platform, I will always use the coverbox fragments style for the text view with all platforms as I did before. NOTE: CTC 3.2 is still being worked on by y2guru, you may notice a few things that aren't all the way finished because of that. Don't worry, I check Dave's Patreon page everyday for updates, as soon as they come in I'll be sure to update them. Marquee view, and animations on the shutdown view are still being worked on. It will be fixed when CTC is updated, the shutdown screen animations I may have to redo I feel that's a error on my end that I can't figure out. As usual, it will take me a day or so to get this looking real nice. Once I do it's off to the next platform, be sure to stop by my patreon and vote, its free. VIDEOS: FEATURES: Remastered Coverbox Fragment Text View in all Platform Themes On-The-Fly Region Changing while browsing game list Now totally rebuilt in CTC 3.2! Custom Startup/Shutdown themes for each platform Custom Pause theme for each platform Loaded with more custom metadata options Many new views! Detail on detail on detail. Official UI sounds for the menus COMPLETED PLATFORMS: 2 Sony PlayStation Sony PlayStation 2 Current Platform: Vote Progress Updates are posted on Patreon, all posts are public. INSTRUCTIONS: Copy all files into Launchbox folder. The "StartupThemes" folder is recommended, but optional. Install if you wish to use the custom startup/shutdown screen. The "PauseThemes" folder is recommended, but optional. Install if you wish to use the custom pause screen. The "Plugins" folder is optional, it contains 2 files from CTC that allow you to use the Startup/Shutdown themes in LB. The "Images" folder contains Developer and Publisher logos and should be installed. NOTE: Be sure to enable "Remember Separate View Per Platform" in the BigBox settings. NOTE: These themes are designed to be applied to your game list, creating the feeling of entering the consoles menus to browse your games. METADATA REQUIREMENTS: In order to use some features in this theme, you must have correct metadata filled out in Launchbox. Here are some of the fields that I used. -Region (United States, North America, Europe, United Kingdom, Japan) -Release Date (used for proper ESRB/PEGI/CERO by years it was used) -Developer & Publisher Fields should be condensed to 1 company. (games with multiple company's wont display the logo) MEDIA COMPATIBILITY: SONY PLAYSTATION: SONY PLAYSTATION 2: -Publisher & Developer images need to be installed for Developer/Publisher logos to display. more Publisher Logos will be added in the future, I made a post for it HERE CUSTOM OPTIONS: VIEWS: SONY PLAYSTATION: SONY PLAYSTATION 2: Some of these views are only included in the Patreon Edition version of my themes. Don't worry, I didn't put my best views behind a paywall. The Patreon Edition contains extra views for niche and obscure addons for platforms that most people don't even have in their collection. I will always include my best views for free, the extra views for my supporters are my way of saying thank you to them. Each theme has a custom credits view that has no use aside from that. I use Vertical Wheel 4 for that always, you can exit by changing to another view. SCREENSHOTS: SONY PLAYSTATION: SONY PLAYSTATION 2: PATREON: Ah, Patreon. Where do I start. I know some people don't like that I started one, and put fragments behind a paywall. I am here to make that right so the fragments are now free, hope that ends that. I also know that some of you want to help, but don't have a way to buy me stay up late drinks. I will be clear that I'm not out to become a Patreon hero, so don't expect that of me. I believe that if you put effort towards balancing everything out, everybody can be happy. In that regard, I set it up in a way that I thought would make everyone happy. For people that hate the idea of buying anybody a coffee, I provided you with what I did before with way more content, and new views! For people that like to buy others coffee, I have provided you with a means to do so and a special edition with extra views. Equally, both sides get something special, I believe this is the best way. Now that's all said and done, I changed up the Patreon a bit and plan to do so a bit more. I like to hear from everybody so the poll is now public, comments will be public, etc. I like to know what kind of views you guys want added, help me with assets, anything. I love ANYTHING gaming related, including hearing from others that share that same passion. Don't be shy, stop by and help me make the best themes I can.

IMPORTANT: I am not working for the Supermodel Team. This is in no way official. It's just me, admiring Ian and the teams amazing hard work. Presenting it in a way that is usable for PC, Controller and Mouse with minimal effort. A lot of people are turned away from this emulator because of the setup. Thinking it's broken or too much hard work. I want to change that and make things easy so people realise just how good Supermodel is. Thank you to @Joejoe for a bunch of cheats and unlocks and checking everything as it's progressed. Thanks to @Baggio for providing the AHK script for Light Guns. Thanks to @Johnny T for various stuff, and @Headrush69 for something I can't remember. Much has changed with this emulator over the past 2 and a bit years. With new features, fixes and the emergence of a new UI, it's safe to say Supermodel has never looked better. So, it's time to flatten everything and create a new standard for the project, at least with it's setup and usage. It's time to strip out what ain't needed. With 2 permanent solutions to the fabled 'light gun indexing' issue, light gun users should no longer need to ask 'why my light gun no worky?' Also, thanks to @Joejoe we now have all unlocks for every game. The last one to fall was Dirt Devils with it's extra track and truck. The main update is the Light Gun AHK script and extra stuff for Dirt Devils. With this pre configuration you will get: Controls Pre Configured. Please see the images provided for button layouts. I have spent many hours on figuring out the best layouts to ensure no clashing inputs and intuitive controls, I could go into detail but again it would need a video an hour long to cover it all. Just know a 'dead zone' of 7% has been added to the analogue sticks to prevent saggy sticks from steering your car for you, or randomly entering directional inputs when you don't want. Also, some games will use force feedback to vibrate your controller. 2 Player Mouse Light Gun Support. The Lost World, The Ocean Hunter, L.A. Machineguns and Start Wars Arcade (yes I have calibrated for both players). By default the mouse indexes have been set to MOUSE1 and MOUSE2. For mouse only users this is generally fine, but light gun users may find their mouse index set to a higher/different MOUSE number. Supermodel also LOVES to make windows switch mouse indexing, more than other emulators, causing your Light Guns just stop working. The new UI has a solution for this, where you essentially shoot/click a box before booting the game, when RAWINPUT is set. This sets the correct indexing and light gun controls for you, ensuring a seamless light gun experience every time you play. However, the UI solution is not currently deployable into LaunchBox. But...thanks to @Baggio we now have an AHK script which will fix your light gun index permanently with LaunchBox (and without). It does require some setup, but once it's done, it's done. It's pretty much a bullet proof solution, pardon the pun. Test Menu Fixes. Every game that needed a test menu fix has had it done. For E.g. the Network Board Not Present issue in Daytona 2, and Feedback Lever issue in Star Wars. This includes setting many of these games Cabinet Type to 'normal' rather than leaving them set to Deluxe. Most of the Deluxe variants have more input options (clutch, fishing line etc) that aren't used or emulated, especially for use with a controller. All games are set to Free Play, Japanese language set to English, and regions have been changed to USA where possible. Analogue Steering Saturation & Analogue Calibration. All of the racing games except Sega Rally 2 have very twitchy steering. I have spent hours sorting out the Analog Saturation to make them more playable. However, the fact is these arcade racers use 1:1 Analog steering. This is TOTALLY NOT how console racers work, unless using a proper analog steering wheel. As the steering is 1:1, it reacts as fast as the stick moves, which again is NOT how console racers work with controllers. If you have the analog stick fully locked to the left and release the stick, the steering will return to centre at the same speed as the stick moving, REALLY really fast. Again... console racers don't do this. There is no current way around this, I have mitigated it, but not removed it. You will have to ease the stick back to centre like you would an analog steering wheel to be able to play effectively. Just be gentle. Sega Rally 2 is fine tho. Enhancements. Some games benefit from having different modes activated. For e.g. Sega Rally 2 'Game Type' set to 'Special' enables 3 laps per stage rather than just the one. Virtua Striker has Golden Goal and Penalty Shootout modes that are off by default, having a longer play time is also preferable in this type of game. There's also little changes like setting Speedometers to MPH from KPH. Please see the table below for more info. Audio Configured (sorta) Left at default the audio is quiet/loud and not balanced for most games as the baseline (not bassline) is not known. It's actually a god damned mystery how these cabs were balanced for audio. Supermodel simply sets it all to max by Default leaving some games really loud and others really quiet. Apparently that's how it was with OG hardware. Meaning the service technician would have balanced these depending on the setup. As you can link certain games like Daytona, audio would have needed to be balanced in accordance, manually. Is there some kinda document or guide out there that's missing, or did the techs just do it by ear? Who fuckin' knows man! There is NO official audio balance standard for Model 3 games, that we know of! So, Audio has been adjusted on a per game basis. This took ages and would probably need a video an hour long to explain. Just know that it was super confusing with the Balance option doing different things per game. I adjusted every games volume to be 'about' the same db. This aspect of the project is the last piece of the puzzle. The audio emulation seems to be getting some attention recently, so gonna hold off to see what happens. I have provided a pre configured Supermodel.ini file for XINPUT and DINPUT. XINPUT (Xbox/Windows) is by far the preferred input method. This is because all XINPUT controllers are the same between controllers with their input IDs. This is great for making pre configurations because it's the same for everyone. If you are unsure as to what input system your controller uses a quick google search should tell you, or this should tell you https://gamepad-tester.com DINPUT is not so great for making pre configs as their input IDs can vary between controllers. So, now here comes a... DISCLAIMER: FOR THE DINPUT PRE CONFIG I USED A PS4 CONTROLLER. IF YOU ARE USING A DIFFERENT DINPUT CONTROLLER YOUR INPUTS COULD BE WRONG AS DINPUT CONTROLERS CAN VARY WITH INPUT IDs. Use X360CE if your DINPUT controller inputs are incorrect, and use the Xinput ini instead - https://www.x360ce.com/ So with that out of the way. SETUP INSTRUCTIONS Download the most recent Supermodel Git version from the official website here - https://www.supermodel3.com/Download.html Download the Sega Model 3 UI from the official GitHub page here - https://github.com/BackPonBeauty/Sega-Model-3-UI-for-20240128-/tree/Segamodel3UIver1122 Download NVRAM & Correct INI file for your controller from this page. Unzip all of this. Transfer/copy all the files from the UI folder into the Supermodel folder. Transfer/copy the correct Supermodel.ini into the Config folder of Supermodel and replace the one already there. Transfer/copy NVRAM files into NVRAM folder of Supermodel. Place ROMs into the ROMs folder in the root of Supermodel. You can use a custom location, but this location will mitigate issues. Start the UI, set your settings to your preference and PLAY! Roms INFO Use as recent as possible MAME NON-Merged ROMS. DON'T USE MERGED ROMS. Split will work but will be missing files needed for controller rumble/FFB. Supermodel is now kept in line with MAME rom updates, if they are to do with Model 3 Games. You can use as old as 0.236. Supermodel is "backwards compatible" to this point. However, 0.263 or newer is best, the reasons why are below: magtruck was updated 0.249 oceanhun was updated 0.253 scudxo was added 0.263 ONLY THESE VERSIONS HAVE BEEN CONFIGURED FOR. dayto2pe daytona2 dirtdvls eca fvipers2 getbassur (Best version for controller usage. It lacks the 'fishing line tension input'. This version was ported to Dreamcast and the only version here) harley lamachin lemans24 lostwsga magtruck (Better dump as of 0.249. Fixes Attract Mode. This is a better dump so it will be the new parent. With the old 'magtruck' parent becoming the clone 'mgtrkbad') oceanhun (New dump as of 0.253. This is a newer version so it will be the new parent. With the old 'oceanhun' parent becoming the clone 'oceanhuna') scud scudplus scudxo (This was found as of 0.263. This is an earlier version with MAJOR gameplay differences and different attract modes) skichamp spikeofe spikeout srally2 srally2dx swtrilgy vf3 vf3tb von2 vs2 vs298 vs2v991 LB PLATFORM XML INSTRUCTIONS Download Sega Model 3 XML from this page. Make sure LaunchBox is closed and not running in the background. Place XML into 'Platforms' folder. It is located in the 'Data' folder. Start LaunchBox Sega Model 3 Platform should appear on the left. Set ROMS Path - Click on any Model 3 game - Press Ctrl + A to select all games - Go to Tools->File Management - Click on 'Change Roms path for selected games' - Select folder where your ROMs are located. Make sure the Emulator is setup and is the default for Sega Model 3 under Associated Platforms. PLAY!!! LIGHT GUN INDEX FIX AHK SCRIPT INSTRUCTIONS You will need to install AHK, or use it portably. Just install it, it's easier. The script uses version v1 / v1.1, but you can just download the new one, v2, and let it prompt to download the older version in addition, on the first load attempt of the script. Download here https://www.autohotkey.com/ Download & unzip the AHK script from this page. Best Practice is to move the Light Gun AHK Script folder with the ahk script inside, into the root of Supermodel Download ControllerRemap Utility v0.0.11.0 here - https://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,108767.0.html (Download is at the bottom of the first post. Before you can unzip it, you will need to rename the file from ControllerRemap.zip.txt ...to... ControllerRemap.zip. Just take the .txt off the file name. THEN UNZIP) Place the ControllerRemap.exe you just unzipped into the Light Gun AHK Script folder next to the LightgunIndexRemap.ahk In LB, right click on a SM3 light gun game and select 'Edit Metadata/Media' Select 'Additional Apps' on the left. Select 'Add Application' at the bottom. Name Application 'Supermodel Light Gun AHK Script' To set Application Path, click 'browse' and select the LightgunIndexRemap.ahk in the Light Gun AHK Script folder you downloaded. Check 'Automatically Run Before Main Application' Hit OK! Repeat above steps (from step 6) for the other 3 Light Gun Games in LaunchBox. But Wait! Theeere's more! You need to set the VID/PID id's of your specific light guns in the AHK script. So we need to... Launch a Game you have set the AHK to with LB, with both light guns connected. If you only have AHK v2, you should get a prompt telling you the script is for v1. It will then ask if you want to download the latest v1.1 version in addition to v2. SAY YES. Wait for it to download. If you need to do this, RESTART YOU PC/DEVICE after v1.1 has installed. Otherwise the script wont work. If you already have v1 or v1.1 you won't get the prompt or need to restart. Now you have (or already have) v1/v1.1 the game should boot up with no script warnings. You wont be able to control anything as the PID/VID is not set. However, by simply booting with the script we have made a log of what they are so you can set them. Exit the game. Open Light Gun AHK Script folder. Inside you will find a list.txt file. Open this and you will see the VID/PID number for the connected light guns, plain as day. Now Right Click & Edit the LightgunIndexRemap.ahk script, with a text editor like WordPad. At the top you will find: *********************************** ; Insert guns ID/PID here *********************************** P1DeviceGunID = VID_0000_PID_1111 P1DeviceGunPID = 1111 P2DeviceGunID = VID_0000_PID_1111 P2DeviceGunPID = 1111 *********************************** Simply replace/edit the ID's in the .ahk script (reference e.g. above) to how they appear in the list.txt file. It's obvious what part of the string you need to use. Don't forget to SAVE the ahk! You should now be able to play with no indexing issues. PHEW! Awesome Feature: Try using WideScreen at the same time as WideBackround. This is essentially a widescreen hack giving a true anamorphic widescreen image. It works really well with most games, apart from Virtua Striker 2 and Sega Bass Fishing. Any questions feel free to ask. Below is a list of everything that I have done per game. YOU DON'T NEED TO DO ANY OF THIS. Consider this the documentation for this pre configuration. Please give this a read! A lot of hard work went into this. Not only have I listed everything that I have done I have also listed any cheats, region change codes and important information. Daytona USA 2: Battle on the Edge daytona2 Daytona USA 2: Power Edition dayto2pe Test Menu Changes: -Language/Game Region set to English/USA. Only achievable by using the Region Change Code. Japan is the default. -Link ID set to SINGLE. Fixes Network Board Not Present. -Setting Region to USA removes the option to switch between the Dennis St. James and the Takenobu Mitsuyoshi soundtracks. (Dennis) is the default when set to USA. However, you can still play the alternate soundtrack version with a really easy cheat that is listed below. Analogue Steering Saturation & Calibration: -Steering was very twitchy due to the Analogue Saturation. The analogue steering is technically 1 to 1 however, there is actually quite a lot of 'dead zone' when you have the steering fully turned. I found you can ease off the control stick about a quarter of the way, from fully locked, before it actually started effecting the steering. I confirmed this in 1st Person view where you can see the drivers hand and steering wheel. I eased of the steering about a quarter of the way before the steering wheel moved and the steering started to react. The 'Input Test' within the test menu did not reflect this, giving values for the entire range of the left stick XAXIS. -So after some extensive testing I have changed the InputJoy1XSaturation to 155% for Daytona 2:BOTE and 165% for Daytona 2:PE, to compensate for this 'dead zone'. This makes the area of the analogue steering XAXIS wider giving way better control, without losing any actual in game steering 'range'. As soon as you ease of the stick the steering will react. -This 'kinda dead zone' would have been present on the original arcade machine hardware, but due to the amount of travel/range left and right on the steering wheel it wouldn't have been noticed (arms don't twist that far). This adjustment is more of a "trueish" 1 to 1 and is much more appropriate for use with a controller. General Info: -Controller will vibrate with this game if you have that functionality. -More racing modes and 'number of laps customisation per difficulty' are available in the test menu when set to USA. Alternate Camera Views (you won't be able to do some of these due to the VR buttons NEEDING to be mapped to the D-Pad): -Press VR1 and VR2 at the same time to get a view from just behind the front left wheel well. -Press VR2 and VR3 at the same time to get a view from just behind the front right wheel well. -Press VR2 while already in VR2 to get a cockpit view. -Press & Hold VR4, and while you are holding it press the other three at the same time to get a sky cam view. -Hold VR2 or VR3 or VR4 and repeatedly tap Start for other alternate views. Cheats: -Hold Start when selecting a transmission for 'Time Lap' mode. No other cars on the track. -Hold Start when waiting for the race to start/load to play the alternate soundtrack. -Hold Start when selecting a track to play the mirrored version. -Light Up Fantasy Amusement Park - Rapidly tap Start during Lap 3 or Lap 4 to light up the road. Unlock Hornet Car - Battle on the Edge Version Only (you won't be able to pull this off due to the VR buttons NEEDING to be mapped to the D-Pad. However, I have provided a save state of just after inputting the code, so you can adjust the stats and use this car): -Before starting the game, move the gear stick into first gear. -At the course selection screen, move the stick into fourth gear. -Then Press View Buttons in this Order: VR1, VR4, VR2, VR4, VR1, VR2, VR2+VR3 (together), and VR1. You only have 8 seconds to pull this off and then quickly select a track, if you don't want to play the beginner course. -If done correctly, you'll get the Hornet in place of the usual selection of cars. The cars stats can be modified using the view buttons and the steering wheel. Again, you only have 8 seconds to do this. Region Change Code: -In the main test menu, Push and Hold Start, then with Start Held, Press GREEN/VR4, GREEN/VR4, BLUE/VR2, YELLOW/VR3, RED/VR1, YELLOW/VR3, BLUE/VR2. -This brings you to a hidden region select screen where you can change to USA and other regions. Dirt Devils dirtdvls Test Menu Changes: -Oversteering issue fixed via calibrating the analogue controls with the 'Calibrate Control Devise' function in the test menu. Gas and Brake have also been correctly calibrated. -Speedometer set to MPH. KPH is the default. General Info: -Region dictated by rom. The parent rom 'dirtdvls' is Export region with no option to change to USA. This is fine as its in English. For USA use rom 'dirtdvlsu'. -Controller will vibrate with this game if you have that functionality. -Hold Shift UP in the Vehicle Select screen to toggle to Manual Transmission. Unlocks: -Additional Track & Truck pre unlocked. This required completion of the game on all tracks. Analogue Steering Saturation & Calibration: -As the analogue controls have been calibrated in the 'Calibrate Control Device' to fix the oversteering issue in the test menu. Even though the steering is 1 to 1 it's still super twitchy so InputJoy1XSaturation = 118 has been added to take the edge off. Emergency Call Ambulance eca Test Menu Changes: -Siren Volume set to 1. It's really annoying otherwise. Default is 7. -Distance set to MILE. METRE is the default. Although, because its the Export version Mile is actually Ft in game because of the metric system or something. ("you's a smart mother f***er") They just didn't label it correctly for the Export version. -Analogue Controls calibrated in the 'Volume Setting' function. Analogue Steering Saturation & Calibration: -As the analogue controls have been calibrated in the 'Volume Setting' within test menu there is NO need to adjust the InputJoy1XSaturation. 4-Way Gear Shifting -By default this game is set to a simple Up / Down gear setup. However, it also has a proper 4 way gear input. You need to edit the Games.xml to activate this. -Under ECA in the Games.xml change the line <input type="shiftupdown" /> to <input type="shift4" /> General Info: -Region dictated by rom.

Le Mans 24 lemans24 Test Menu Changes: -Language/Game Region set to English/USA. Only achievable by using Region Change Code. Japan is the default. -Special Car set to SKYLINE. The default is NONE Analogue Steering Saturation & Calibration: -Steering is very twitchy due to the Analogue Saturation. Controls are a perfect 1 to 1 however it's still really difficult to control. -So after some extensive testing I have changed the InputJoy1XSaturation to 120%. This makes the area of the analog steering XAXIS 'wider' giving way better control. -You do lose some steering range but the trade off is more than worth it and barely noticeable. Region Change Code: -In the main test menu press Start, Start, Service, Service, Start, Test. -This brings you to a hidden region select screen where you can change to USA and other regions. Lost World, The lostwsga IMPORTANT: -So, I'm bringing the hammer down on this one as I have discovered the issue everyone (inc. myself) has been having. This game has 2 input methods which can only be changed in the Games.xml. 1-The default, which is analog input, so x and y coordinate based. This one doesn't flash as it's analog based (<input type="analog_gun1" />). 2-The alternative light gun input method which flashes the screen and detects where the light gun is pointed, like a traditional light gun game (<input type="gun1" />). -In the Supermodel.ini file the inputs labeled for The Lost World ONLY APPLY when the game has been set to Light Gun input (<input type="gun1" />). When set to the default analog input type (<input type="analog_gun1" />), the inputs are actually the ones labelled as Ocean Hunter, L.A. Machineguns, NOT the inputs labelled as Lost World. With 'InputAnalogTriggerLeft' being the trigger for Lost World, and 'InputAnalogTriggerRight' being the off-screen/reload button for Lost World, under the "Analog Inputs" for Ocean Hunter, L.A. Machineguns input section. Not confusing as shit at all. -This does make sense after the fact, as when set to analog input..... the analog inputs apply.... not the light gun inputs derrrrr. But because of the frankly appalling labelling in the ini file, it has spun me (and seemingly everyone else) till now. As a result of all this confusion I have labelled these inputs correctly in the ini file. I swear this emulator is out to get me..... -InputAutoTrigger in the .ini is ON. This allows you to simply press the reload button to reload. If this is OFF you'd need to hold reload and then press fire to reload. Test Menu Changes: -Language/Game Region set to English/USA. Only achievable by using Region Change Code. Japan is the default. -Calibrated for Accuracy in 'Gun Setting' option. General Info: -Crosshairs are ON in the .ini file. Region Change Code: -In the main test menu press Start, Start, Service, Start, Service, Test. -This brings you to a hidden region select screen where you can change to USA and other regions.

Ocean Hunter, The oceanhun Test Menu Changes: -Language/Game Region set to English/USA. Only achievable by using Region Change Code. Japan is the default. -Cabinet Type set to STANDARD. The default is DELUXE. -Analogue Controls calibrated for Accuracy in 'Volume Setting' function. Region Change Code: -Go to test menu then go into 'Game Assignments' and press 1P Start, 2P Start, 1P Start, 2P Start, 1P Start, 2P Start, 2P Start -This brings up an extra option. Select USA or other regions. Scud Race / Sega Super GT scud scudxo Scud Race Plus / Sega Super GT Plus scudplus Test Menu Changes: -Language/Game Region set to English/USA. No Region Change Code. USA and other regions selectable from 'Game Assignments'. Japan is the default. -SETTING TO USA CHANGES GAME TITLE TO SEGA SUPER GT. -Link ID set to SINGLE. Fixes Network Board Not Present. General Info: -Controller will vibrate with this game if you have that functionality. Analogue Steering Saturation & Calibration: -Steering is very twitchy due to the Analogue Saturation. The analogue steering is 1 to 1 however there is quite a lot of 'dead zone' when you have the steering fully turned, despite the values the test menu gives you. I found you can ease off the stick about a quarter of the way before it actually started affecting the steering. I confirmed this in 1st Person View where you can see the drivers hand and steering wheel, I eased of the steering about a quarter of the way before the steering wheel moved and the steering started to react. The 'Input Test' did not reflect this, giving values for the entire range of the control stick XAXIS. -So after some extensive testing I have changed the InputJoy1XSaturation to 165%, to compensate for this 'dead zone'. This makes the area of the analog steering XAXIS wider giving way better control, without losing any actual in-game steering 'range'. As soon as you ease of the stick the steering will react. -This 'kinda dead zone' would have been present on the original hardware, but due to the amount of travel from left to right on the steering wheel it wouldn't have been noticed. This adjustment is more of a 'kinda true 1 to 1' and is much more appropriate for a controller. Sega Bass Fishing / Get Bass getbassur IMPORTANT: -Use 'getbassur' over every other version of Sega Bass Fishing. -This version lacks the tension input which is better for controllers. Test Menu Changes: -Language/Game Region set to English/USA. Only achievable by using Region Change Code. Japan is the default. -Analogue Controls calibrated in the Volume Setting function within the test menu. -Game Time and Continue Time have been set to the maximum '3m50s'. Region Change Code: -In the main test menu, select CRT TEST and move to screen 2/2. -Push the Service Button 4 times, exit the CRT TEST. -Go into Game Assignments, push Service Button 3 times, then press and hold Service Button and then press Test. -This brings you to a hidden region select screen where you can change to other regions. Sega Rally 2 srally2 Sega Rally 2 DX srally2dx Standard and DX differences: -The DX version has a different livery (car decals) and some other minor "under the hood" updates. IMPORTANT: -This game will run slow and have graphical glitches if the PowerPCFrequency is left on 49. -Setting to a higher number will fix this. However if set too high the emulator will start to run slow. -PowerPCFrenquency set to 69 in the ini file. This fixes the issue. It's the sweet spot. Test Menu Changes: -Game Region set to USA. Only achievable by using Region Change Code. Export is the default. -Game Mode set to SPECIAL. This enables 3 Laps per stage. The default is NORMAL (1 Lap per stage). -Default View set to BEHIND. The default is Driver. -Speedometer set to MPH. Default is KMH. -Cabinet Type set to TWIN. The CLUTCH and other stuff are NOT used when set to TWIN, which is what we want. The default is DELUXE. -Coin Assignments set to Free Play. This helps with a bug where if you restart the game with credits loaded it may not display any graphics. Setting to Free Play helps with this. Analogue Steering Saturation & Calibration: -Steering is very twitchy due to the Analogue Saturation being 'short'. The analogue steering is 1 to 1 however there is quite a lot of 'dead zone' when you have the steering fully turned, despite the values the test menu gives you. I found you can ease off the stick about a quarter of the way before it actually started affecting the steering. -So after some extensive testing I have changed the InputJoy1XSaturation to 155%, to compensate for this 'dead zone'. This makes the area of the analog steering XAXIS 'wider' giving way better control, without losing any actual in-game steering 'range'. As soon as you ease of the stick the steering will react. -This 'kinda dead zone' would have been present on the original hardware, but due to the amount of travel from left to right on the steering wheel it wouldn't have been noticed.

Region Change Code: -In the main test menu using the Service Button:- -Do 4 short presses, 2 long (about 2 seconds per press), 2 short presses, then 1 long press (about 2 seconds). -This brings you to a hidden region select screen where you can change to other regions. Ski Champ skichamp IMPORTANT: -This game has an InputSkiY AXIS Input. Despite this being designated as a Y axis it's actually used for movement on the X axis. -IT'S NOT USED FOR UP AND DOWN MOTION. -It is for turning harder, like digging in the edges of the skis. This is how the original arcade hardware works. -This is assigned to the Right Stick. Move the Right Stick in the same direction as the Left Stick to turn harder. Test Menu Changes: -Language/Game Region set to English/Export. Setting to USA kept crashing the game for me. Only achievable by using Region Change Code. Japan is the default. -Extend Time set to 25s. The game is pretty much impossible to complete otherwise. The default is 20s. -Analogue Controls calibrated in the Volume Setting function within the test menu. -Force Feedback MUST be enabled otherwise you'll get the 'Check Drive Board' error.

Huge collection of Sony Playstation 3D box images. All USA games included, along with Euro exclusives and same Japanese games that have translations. All the long box games. Long box releases that also had jewel case releases are also here. I also included all Greatest Hits games (there were a lot more than I thought). Sadly, only one Collector's Edition box is here. I couldnt find high quality scans of any of those. I included 3D box templates in PSD format if anyone needs it. There are quite a few 3D box sets out there for PS1, what makes this one exciting is all the Greatest Hits game have 3D art for the first time. Also, for the longest time I thought ALL PS1 long boxes were cardboard format, but it turns out quite a few long box releases used a plastic clamshell similar to Sega Saturn. The templates used were all 3D art images collected from the games DB, that I simply made into templates so I couldnt give credit to whom created what. Enjoy this massive collection!

Warning to Resellers or small sellers: I could not stop you or prevent you from using my content for commercial purposes but at least have the respect to credit me in your compilations: it's the least you can do! If I see too much exploitation for financial purposes without credits I will stop all sharing! You have been warned! _______________________________________________ Still in the series I make something new with something old (or "I dust off old media") Here is still and again a classic that I will say made a little more energetic in order to attract the eye! and normally you will not take it off the screen and that's what it's made for! A word for the Super disc theme : Hello guys, today I propose you something Big! A big exclusive (temporary because given the somewhat the little historical aspect of things I have to share it elsewhere) I worked in close collaboration with an artist who created a Blender of the Super disc (a commercial version of the MSU prototype) based on the latest statements from the developers as well as on the design of the Satellaview (extension of the Super Famicom, marketed only in Japan from 1995) New logo once again based on the official acronym of the official super disc used by the developers at the time! In short, nothing was left to chance and I think it is the cleanest version that a commercial and definitive version of the console could have given! Even Secret of Mana is not a coincidence since it was the launch title planned for the release of the machine on day one! the creation of these media does not call into question all the work of the guys who are based on the msu logo (which was the prototype) but now leaves the choice and brings a new alternative for those who want it. Go towards the charter "logo prototype msu" or "the Super disc" This representation of the super disc is definitely the most beautiful and realistic of the proposals Everyone will choose which charter to go for according to their tastes! I leave you some media for those who would like to open a construction site! Here is my theme which will also be shared in the batocera community. For the History/ of the MSU In the early 90s, many video game manufacturers saw the relatively new CD medium as a way to expand the capabilities of their existing consoles, and Nintendo had planned a CD expansion for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. Originally planned and developed in cooperation with Sony, Nintendo later turned to Phillips to carry out the project, but no finished product ever saw the light of day. Sony, offended by Nintendo, developed the Playstation to commercial maturity, and Phillips released the CD-I independently (which did not do well at all, by the way). But if history had taken a different course, perhaps we would all remember the Nintendo Super Disc today. . Many thanks to Oliver Harries for his trust and availability:

Here is my Game Boy Advance 2D front box art set for your enjoyment! I found that the various existing sets of front box art for this system were severly lacking in quality and attention to detail. When I noticed that I was beginning to have to replace more and more box fronts with my own work, I finally decided to just start from scratch and work my way through the entire set one by one to correct errors/poor photoshop work that I had been coming across, as well as attempt to find higher quality source art altogether. Detail work included: Hours upon hours zoomed into 400-1200% with clone tool to get rid of dust specks. Hand-drawing shadows, lines, and artwork elements that were missing, needed re-done, or were part of a damaged area of a scan. Bringing shadow, mid, and highlight levels within spec, and a myriad of other adjustments/edits. Many images needed extensive compositing from alternate sources such as box art elements from a different system, pieces from different box art regions, movie posters, game advertisements/promo materials, logos from other more high quality sources (but the same as used on GBA box), etc. I did take some artistic liberties if the situation called for it. Mostly with brush work, cloning out scratches, dust specks, digital artifacts, and cropping. For certain games I included Alternate versions of the box if I ended up finding some. Stuff like Player's Choice versions, "plays on DS" versions, different promo stickers, or holo-stickers, etc. The different "sidebars" should all be correct as well. Those with the "only for" triangle, and those without. When in doubt, I cross-referenced with an actual box on ebay to figure out which style I should put on the box. There were a few one-off sidebars that were PAL style, but also had the "only for" triangle on it. And I think there was a sidebar that had the "Gameboy Advance" logo off-centered to allow space for the "only for" triangle, but it actually wasn't printed on the box for some reason. I also bought the following games off ebay and scanned them in myself: 3 Game Pack! - Candy Land + Chutes and Ladders + Original Memory Game 3 Game Pack! - Ker Plunk! + Toss Across + Tip It American Idol Backyard Football Bratz - Rock Angelz Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX 3 Defender Disney's Kim Possible 3 - Team Possible Fear Factor Unleashed Franklin the Turtle Frogger's Journey - The Forgotten Relic High Heat Major League Baseball 2002 Hobbit, The - The Prelude to the Lord of the Rings Hot Potato! Incredibles, The - Rise of the Underminer Land Before Time, The Madden NFL 2004 Mary-Kate and Ashley Sweet 16 - Licensed to Drive Mission Impossible - Operation Surma Muppets, The - On with the Show! Pitfall - The Lost Expedition Planet Monsters Shawn Palmer's Pro Snowboarder SpongeBob SquarePants - Revenger of the Flying Dutchman Sports Illustrated for Kids - Football Star Wars - Episode II - Attack of the Clones Of course, once you get on a roll with things like this and are several hundred in, there is the possibility for errors. Definitely had some episodes of blurry vision from staring at these pixels for too long. I may have done something incorrectly and not realized it. If anything strikes you as needing attention, please feel free to let me know. Template is included in case you need to make your own artwork, or feel like contributing back into this set with higher quality source art. Template details: Parts from Shenske's template shared on thecoverproject site serve as the PAL Box, and shadow layer. Main GBA silver bar/logo is from a template shared by shonasof on reddit, and the centered logo for boxes without the "only for" triangle was hand cut/extracted from an existing box front found on GameFaqs by myself. Also totally fine to share and re-post this anywhere.

Game Cart Generator - Game Art Compositing Tool Created by Saieno - @Lets_All_Game on Twitch and LetsAllGame on YouTube Overview Game Cart Generator is a standalone desktop application for generating stylized cartridge or disc-based artwork. It's primarily for user-supplied template layers, clear logos or box art, and optionally background images or procedural backgrounds to compose polished output images. The app supports both standard label and defined logo area templates for advanced layouts, with options for pattern overlays, gradient fills, padding, scaling, compositing, and live color selection. This app is designed for batch generation and includes a threaded progress bar, preview support, auto-saving of settings per template, and example templates which you can use if you'd like. Template Requirements Cartridge Template (PNG): A top-layer graphic to overlay the final composition. Should contain transparency for visible underlying layers. Alpha Template (PNG): Must contain the color #00FF18 to define the artwork or logo area for the label. May contain the color #FF00FF to define a specific logo area which enables "Defined Logo Mode". These colors are used as masking keys and will be auto-detected and replaced during rendering. Key Features Support for both Standard and Defined Logo Area modes. Auto-detects and enables Defined Logo Mode based on Alpha Template contents. Background generation with: Solid color fill Vertical gradient Gradient with pattern overlay Optional greyscale conversion for logos and/or background layers. Background fallback logic when no matching background is found. Pattern overlays with optional grayscale masking. "BG Burn" effect for high-contrast multiply effect backgrounds. "Logo Burn" for blending greyscale logo and background together as a single burn layer. Fill Color: fills transparent areas inside the defined logo mask with a selectable color. Color Picker: choose fill color directly from anywhere on screen. Logo Stretch to Fill: stretches logos to fill the defined area, ignoring aspect ratio. Manual Image Stretching (up, down, left, right), with Advanced Mode extended range option. Scaled preview window with real-time updates and optional fit-to-window toggle. Threaded batch generation with estimated time remaining. Per-template configuration saved to settings.conf. Recursive input directory support for all asset folders. Defined Logo Mode Behavior When a template contains #FF00FF (magenta), the tool enables Defined Logo Mode: Clear logos are used in place of full box art. Backgrounds are matched by filename (e.g., Sonic.png). If no match is found: If "Generate Background if Missing" is disabled, a random background from the folder is used. If "Generate Background if Missing" is enabled, a generated gradient/pattern background is used automatically—even if background generation is off—to prevent transparency gaps. Greyscale Background option converts matched backgrounds to black & white. BG Burn applies a high-contrast multiply effect to background generation. Logo Burn composites the greyscale logo and background together, then blends that composite with the stylized background. If Fill Color is defined, it replaces any transparent pixels inside the logo mask area with the selected solid color. Logo Stretch to Fill forces the logo to completely fill the masked region, ignoring original aspect ratio. Output Final images are saved as .png to the selected output folder. Filenames are based on input image names for easy frontend installation. Composite includes background + logo/art + cartridge template overlay. Requirements No installation or required.

Playtime is a modern theme designed mostly to Showcase the new Game Discovery Center! Think of it like a Netflix For Games kind of look where you can browse & discover content you may have forgotten about or just not played in a while. Playtime has had a makeover since the last upload with a huge list of changes with some smooth transitions switching between games to Fullscreen Fanart & Fullscreen gameplay videos. In the GDC/Game Discovery Center view or I like to call the Home Screen I have utilised some navigational context when switching games as to which game you are navigating to/from. For example the screen transitions from The Highly Recommended Games in a frame at the top of screen into a list of games with Fullscreen Fanart. This theme contains a Game Discovery Center View, 4 Platform Views, Text Views, a Wall View, 3 Horizontal based Views of Game Boxes & a Vertical View/WheelGamesView based in a bedroom or Arcade room with a device hooked up to a screen to showcase some Nostalgia. Game Discovery Center To set Game Discovery Center to startup as your Home view. Start Big Box & go to Options/Views/Default Startup View: Game Discovery Center Avatar Profile & Username Customisations & Instructions Important Note For Gameplay Videos set your Video Playback Engine to Windows Media Player in Big Box options/Videos/Video Playback Engine. VLC Player does not like videos in a Dock or Stack which will result in video playing sound but not visible. Avatar Profile & Username Customisations You can personalise your Home Screen ect with your own Avatar profile/Gamer Pic & i have created 50 Avatar pics for your profile for you to play around with & enjoy.

After doing the TG16 set, I felt I had to bang this one out too. This system confused with the type of art it used. Like TG16, some of the CD games were released in cardboard boxes, while most were just sold in jewel case form. All of these games had a jewel case, but some had a double jewel case despite having only one disc. Very weird (some Sony PS1 games did the same). 4 in 1 Super CD was the most confusing to me. This game has one disc, but I dont know if it had a proper jewel case or not. I couldnt find a proper back or spine image, and I don't think it even had its own cover art. I made a generic custom one for that. If anyone has any information or pictures/scans of the original release let me know. Anyway, all releases are included, but again no japanese PC Engine CD releases here. The boxes that did have a standard cardboard release are here, along with all jewel cases. Templates are also included. Enjoy.

inMERSE was born as a personal modification of the Colorful theme by Viking, but over time I made so many changes that I decided to turn it into a completely original theme. The main goal is to emulate the interfaces of its respective platforms, providing a touch of nostalgia, but maintaining a clean and user-friendly aesthetic. At the same time, it seeks to imagine the interfaces of platforms that did not have one at the time, respecting the original design and its color palette as much as possible. Note: To change the user image you just need to replace the image inMERSE\Media\User\00.jpg with the image of your choice Important: The Switch view is designed to use the main menu images of the games. These can be easily obtained with the NxFileViewer tool by right-clicking on the cover image. Each image must be assigned to the corresponding game using the "Arcade-Marquee" category for everything to work properly. If you prefer not to do this task, you can change the view to "Horizontal Wheel 2", which offers a visual alternative. inMERSE is constantly growing. In this version only PC, Xbox 360, Xbox Classic, 3DS, GBA, PS2, NES, SNES, Wii U and Switch are included. I'm open to adding new platforms, if you have any in mind or would like to make a suggestion let me know and I'll consider including it in future versions. If you find any bugs, I'd appreciate it if you let me know. I'm new to this and even though I've done a lot of testing, it's possible that I've missed something. platforms menu sound: 2004 Ambient Console Menu Music by Audioarc.

Decided to combine my two favorite platform/playlist videos into one theme that works with my system (I love the Lights Out Neon Arcade theme). I will be adding additional videos as I work thru my collection and platforms/playlist. Thought it was right to share to the community as I just did a small part of this work given the bulk was done by many others that work on the Colorful and Retrolust items here. These are large because I wanted to keep high resolution video, feel free to run them thru Handbrake to reduce the size for your system requirements.

Rebuild all set based on officially released USA and Europe games from latest No-Intro Romset. Default cart available.

2700+ Hi-Res Arcade front boxes/posters based on PC top header colored with platform or collection set. One of each systems/collections attached as exemples Top left banner for system if there is any - top right banner for playlist name Separated archives for dedicated systems like Naomi, Atomiswave, Model3, etc... I'm still a noob with editing so I did my best to reframe, cleanup from arcade flyers or other custom box front (thanks to everyone who did these custom posters in Launchbox DB). I also created few ones from scratch. It fits well with flat design themes like Colorful I started from Mame import generated playlists and added few other systems (teknoparrot, CPS III emu, Dolphin Triforce, etc...) so I probably miss several games. I can provide .psd files and create missing one once in a while so @me if needed

A beautiful theme with Arcade style menus for all your platforms! Features of this theme: Made mainly for Arcade platform (but works for all platforms!) Different views, select what's best for you! No flashy animations that may affect perfomance. Work in progress, more views will be available, please check patreon for updates. You can check some Videos of my themes in action on my Youtube Channel If you'd like to help me dedicate more time to my themes, you can support me on: https://www.patreon.com/Exodus_cl . . . P.S.: English is not my first language so I apologize for any mistake. Thanks to: @y2guru for your amazing theme editor

Original COLORFUL theme here! Two additional views when selecting games to go along with the Colorful theme. The preview video/screenshot for the game will appear on the console screen underneath reflective light/dirt on the console. Vertical Wheel 4 will also show the game cartridge/disc when applicable, Vertical Wheel 3 doesn't show the cartridge and simply displays the respective game media. This view is not comprehensive, and currently only handles the following game systems: N64 Nintendo 3DS NES Gameboy Advance Gameboy Color Gamecube Switch Wiii Wii U Dreamcast Sega Genesis Sega Saturn Playstation Playstation 2 PSP SNES Windows I may add more as I come across them/expand my own game collection or if there's a high demand for it. There's also the PlatformWheel2 view from the original Colorful theme included but with a correction - the original version seemed to have a color mismatch for the Sega Genesis platform. A corrected version is included in this as well. Enjoy and let me know if you have any issues with it! Shoutouts to @viking and @faeran for making such a clean and wonderful theme! Made with the Community Theme Creator, so thanks also to @y2guru!

V4.0 Update with all 130 tables as of December 12, 2024. The following includes media for Pinball FX. Media naming is formatted for ease of import assuming setup as noted below. Screenshots and Fanart are all 1920x1080 and in PNG format. Goal was to try to find high quality images. Unfortunately, Zen only ever releases some media for their tables so you have to hunt and peck. I will update pack periodically as get time. I also have about 25% of a video pack done but that may be awhile at this point and will release as separate download entry. Setup in Launchbox [ YOU FOLLOW POST BELOW FOR MEDIA TO MATCH AUTOMATICALLY] Media in this Pack Clear Logos (Clear Logo.zip). Grimm Tales was only table couldn't find a decent image. So recreated via an approximate font. It is close but not exact. If find better will upload. Tarcisio Style Wheels - Silver/Round (Box - Front - Reconstructed.zip). I have been playing around with another wheel format but only done one attached at end of this for Indy set. Screenshots (all 1920x1080 PNG format files): Gameplay (Screenshot - Gameplay.zip): Desktop View Game Select (Screenshot - Game Select.zip): Full Table View Game Title (Screenshot - Game Title.zip): These are typically backglass type images. For physical tables the images are from backglass (non-stretched). For others typically will be similar to fanart images but with various logos on image. Fanart - Background (Fanart - Background.zip): about half are similar to the Game Title images but others are more "simple" with no Zen logos and less textual clutter. Not all Zen tables have easy to find media so in some cases the fanart file will be identical to the Game Title above. Advertisement Flyers (front and back) for the physical tables: currently 28 as of 7/29/2023. In the Advertisement Flyer - Front.zip and Advertisement Flyer - Back.zip Steam Backglass Images (Cabinet.zip) - 2 monitor setups only: You only need this if you have two monitors and want a back glass image on the second monitor. Images are the same as the Game Title versions above but renamed as needed to properly work (need a "_" in the name and must be PNG format). These are to be placed here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Pinball FX\PinballFX\Mods\Cabinet Note not to be confused with the Launchbox "arcade cabinet" media. This is for Steam folder only. Credits: Update 9/3/2003 with 3D Box since LB DB doesn't have separate entry for FX: Pinball FX.xml

Created a template to a 3D ps3 case, its pretty simple to use in photoshop, pretty much drag and drop the cover art and name the spine and you are good to go, I also included a few i did that i couldn't find online using the template, hope it helps someone

Phew. This was a SET! Sega Master System 2D Box fronts. What a deceptively simple looking set. It wasn't necessarily complicated. Just really, really tedious. Mostly due to the fact of the rampant inconsistency of almost every element. Especially the various title fonts. To quote a member of the smspower.org forums, "Apply excessive, inconsistent kerning to get the authentic look.". It was never just a matter of typing in a game title. Literally every single letter on every single cover had different kerning that needed to be applied to it in order to match the original cover. Literally no two letters had the same kerning. It was outrageous! Sometimes the dot for a lowercase "i" would have it's own kerning independent from the letter. Sometimes the dot would not be included at all. Sometimes there were mixed font sizes within the same word. Sometimes one letter was subscript by .05 for no good reason. Sometimes there was "TM', sometimes there wasn't. Sometimes there was a "TM" with one font for the T, and another for the M. Sometimes there was an ®, sometimes there wasn't. Sometimes the ® had white under, sometimes it was clear. Sometimes the ® was blue, sometimes it was black. Sometimes there was whiteout behind the SEGA logo, sometimes there wasn't. Sometimes there was whiteout only on a certain portion of the S from blue SEGA logo, sometimes there wasn't. etc., etc. You get the idea. Speaking of, there's several different versions of that blue SEGA logo. Which was a task in and of itself. All the logos I came upon online had a large opening, or "inner triangle" on the letter A. Whereas, the actual SMS boxes have a small inner triangle of white. But it still has to sort of keep the overall angle of that entire line that makes up the left angle and goes down to the foot of the A. Of course, that angle also doesn't follow a straight line.. It ever so slightly diverges off the angle it starts from in order to end up making the upper left part of the inner triangle more inward than it normally would be. Might not be explaining it well enough. But that was a thing! There's also about 12 or so variants of the "Sega Master System" logo found on some boxes. That one was a doozy. The logo with the "bulb" of the tail of the letter "y" being in-line with the blue line, but not above it, while still having the skinny part of the letter y swoop under the blue line took quite a while. You wouldn't think it, but it isn't just the font typed with special kerning. It is actually two sets of different kernings on that letter. One for the skinny swoop part that goes under, and one for the bulb. But the skinny swoop doesn't go so far under as to leave a gap through which you can see the white background. Oh no way,...it rides that blue line. Which was custom skewing after all the kerning was done. Because it always wanted to show a gap, no matter what I did with the kerning. So I had to rasterize the layer and skew it manually until the bulb part was squished juuuuuust enough to not go over the blue line, and the swoop went under, but not too far! lol. Layered over each other; eraser, clone, 1px brush in red to fill in manually,..etc., etc. And each version had some slight variation. Like the horizontal rule blue line has a gap,.......the blue line is now black! The line is now at the bottom of the bulb of the letter "y". The line is now above it! The red "Master System" type is tall in this one,...but it's short in this one! ok sorry, moving on! Even the gray grid was inconsistent in nature. I took an example selection from a box front in photoshop, and filled my canvas with that selection to make a nice crisp new grid. Then brought the opacity down to try to match it up to the original grid, and noticed that when one square was exact, a few rows down it wouldn't be. If I matched it exactly to say, the middle row, then it slowly went out of alignment moving out from the equator. So in an effort to add some consistency to a set that was becoming increasingly tedious as I went through it, I just made a grid matching a really nice hi-res scan from one box, and used that throughout the entire set. Speaking of adding consistency. Due to the nature of the scans available, and how they sometimes were skewed, or didn't resize directly into my canvas perfectly (most did, but not all) I did end up settling on some versions of the box that kept artwork elements in the same spot across different boxes from that same design. That way, I didn't always have to move things by very small increments just to match a scan absolutely perfect. Also, some boxes came with elements way off-center by design. Sometimes it looked fine, but other times I went with logos and such that were closer to center. Different publishers were also given license to use their own variations of fonts and logos as long as it fit the general theme of the Sega Master System it seems. Such as the "action" triangle having a slightly different font and coverage area on certain games by certain publishers, and Flying Edge using a 100% black grid versus the normal light grey grid. The Strider II box used a different font on the Sega Master System logo, that is only found on one other box front in the entire set. Tecmagik had their own fonts and style, as did Parker Bros., just to name a few examples. Most of the work/time spent was matching fonts and creating a new fresh set of type, and the pen tool on 1200-1600% zoom in order to cut out all the artwork assets. I tried to match everything I could with clean new examples, however there were times when the scan was high quality, and I didn't feel like spending half an hour matching the individual kerning of each letter on two lines of small font, so I would just cut out the actual artwork from the box and use that since it was so clean. Conversely, there are a few boxes that have some elements that might not be hi-res. I just hit a wall sometimes, and did not want to re-create a small gray square that has some type in it. There also were certain times that I did not feel confident in being able to re-create certain things, so I would just use the full actual scan and call it good. Only had to do this for a handful of boxes out of the entire set. Full artwork boxes were sometimes just used "as-is". The Addams Family and Bart Simpson vs. the World are examples of this. I thought about getting the actual box to scan, but ebay prices dissuaded me lol. Some boxes like Terminator 2 Judgment Day, I was able to use a movie poster and fresh logos for it. For that one specifically, I included a version both with the shotgun, and without. Just for fun. Since Sega had it censored out. Back to the Future II was a composite of a few different elements to get a real clean looking artwork centerpiece. There were a few "one-off" style boxes, like the Master System Classic line, and a few Activision black boxes with silver grid. For the Master System Classic box front I used the full scan from "The Ottifants" as my template, and cut out the part where the artwork is showing through the ripped hole. I also had a little fun and made a version of Outrun that has the ferrari car cut out from the Mark III box. I've included every single game's PSD file as well. That way if you ever need to make any type of box, it's all there. I didn't make one Master Template, so you'll just have to search through for games that have certain elements you'd want/need to include on a box, and bring those elements over to the new file. For example, if you need to add the green "Plays on Master System" rectangle, take it from a game like Spider Man. And if you need the "Light Phaser Series" pink seal, take it from Gangster town. For as tedious as it was, this was still a very interesting set, with all of its variations and differences. I wasn't ever really into the Sega Master System as a kid. My friend had one that I played a handful of times. But working through this set, I've somehow grown an appreciation for the way the boxes were designed. So, with all that rambling done, enjoy! P.S. this webpage helped start me on the correct path in terms of fonts, and What the font was an invaluable tool in helping to find other fonts used on these boxes.

This set contains images of various consoles, mobile, computers .png format, all drawings from the site Dimensions.com , as well as device logos on a white background: -There are several device images in the Device folder in the format .png with different orientation in space, but first, these are consoles with a horizontal arrangement (handheld tilts so that the screen is facing left. The consoles are on the right facing the center, and the controllers are on the left facing the center), then for other console models / revisions, after the image of of controllers and accessories. (Not all images are from third party sites, some are cropped by me, so there will be a lot of 'unnecessary' images in some folders in case you don't like the ones I use, such as handheld with screens not turned off (I use the first few images and number them in order, and then when the beginning of the file name is repeated, then 'unnecessary' images follow)). -The Default 3D Box folder contains controller mappings, schematics, and drawings from Dimensions.com. (You will notice that on some platforms there is no controller mapping, and this is because I downloaded them from the user: @Pyrometheous 🛐, for which I am grateful. Therefore, I will also recommend you to supplement the missing images from Controller Mapping .6). -The Default Box folder contains .png images of consoles packed in boxes (well, those that could be found (or their 'mini' editions)). Except for: Sega Saturn, Xbox One, Xbox Series (To be honest, I didn't want to add folders for these platforms at all and add drawings from the site Dimensions.com into the 4-Genesis and 7-Xbox 360 folder).

Hey guys, this is a set of arcade marquees I built last year for the SNK Neo Geo platform. While the red MVS marquees are very good, and quite true to how people, including myself, physically saw these games in arcades, I've always felt they made these games feel more "generic" somehow, despite the fact that there are some real gems in the Neo Geo collection. These are all the same size, 2560 x 730, which might seem an odd resolution, but it matches a portioned-off top screen in my arcade build. I can't even remember why I chose this pixel size, but it's not a terrible aspect-ratio in terms of a middle ground for arcade marquees, which as we all know are quite variable. These were generated with a mix of the amazing artwork resources in the Launchbox Games DB (game logos, and company / platform logos), and the standard MVS card artwork, overlaid on top of official / fan-artwork which was extended with generative-fill in Photoshop, which can produce some rather incredible results. Everything was also upscaled throughout the process with FreeScaler on the Mac, which really blew me away in terms of how much it can improve low-resolution artwork. A few examples are attached separately too. Hopefully these are useful! I've also built standardized marquees for other platforms, if people like these. Thanks to everyone in this awesome community for contributing so much high quality content over the years. It's about time I gave something back

I was sick of seeing crappy Nintendo Game Boy Color box images in my collection (I made this set years ago in lower resolution with the annoying Game Boy Color logo on all the spines). I remade all boxes in high quality HD with accurate spines on most boxes. All USA games and Euro exclusives are included, along with many Japanese exclusives that can be played in English. Most spines and boxes on the USA and Euro games are all retail accurate, some spines may be custom made if I couldn't find proper source images. As always I included PSD templates for the 2D and 3D boxes if anyone wants to include their own games not included here. About 669 games have been done here. This system was a big pain finding suitable source art. For some reason GBC (and also GBA) are a lot harder to find HQ scans than the original Game Boy games. I got lot of images off ebay and thecoverproject, but most of the covers were standard low res 500x500 that I had to enhance and clean up. Most came out great. There are some covers that look pretty awful like International Superstar Soccer 99 (USA). I could not find a decent source image for the north american release anywhere! I image enhanced a crappy 200x200 thumbnail image I found and replaced the logo and its doable for now. NHL Blades of Steel (USA) is another one that was tough to find. Big thanks to all the logo wizards in the forums who helped create some clear logos for some of these boxes. Feel free to let me know if there are any errors. If anyone has better scans for some of these covers let me know, And if anyone wants to upload some of these to the Games DB, by all means do so. Enjoy this collection!

Here we go guys and gals, sorry its late, but crazy busy just lately. Anyway usual stuff you've come to expect from me, videos, boxes, logos etc etc blah blah blah, enjoy
