In the arcade game community, replacing a worn out control panel overlay is something everyone does to help the look of their cab; perhaps that is a good analogy here.

On a miniature scale, hmm? :3

I went through my HuCards today and another question came up:  Which games came with textured sleeves?

A search came up with some information:  there were actually three types of sleeves during the TG16 lifetime:  smooth, textured, and hole punched.  I do not have any of the last type.

I copied and pasted together a list of the games that should have textured sleeves according to members here.

Air Zonk
Andre Panza Kickboxing
Ballistix
Battle Royale
Darkwing Duck
Falcon
Gunboat
Neutopia II
Night Creatures
Parasol Stars
Silent Debuggers
Soldier Blade
Somer Assault
Talespin
Time Cruise
TV Sports Basketball
TV Sports Hockey
World Sports Competition
Yo Bro

Ninja Spirit (Duo pack-in)

Are any others missing from the list here...or are any of these incorrect?
THANKS TO ALL PCEfx members who have helped fix my hardware and add to my games library!  What a thrill!

There was a transitional period during which some games shipped with either.

Basically, Turbochips ©1989 & ©1990 are smooth, those ©1991+ were textured.

But don't pay $50 for it cuz it's rare. It's identical to the ones found in several PCE HuCards.

The only plastic wrap worth $50 is the baggie that the old Nintendo Game and Watch things came in.

This is true. :3
