I have a two part question. Why did Sega start using cardboard boxes towards the end of the gennys life? Off the top of my head I remember having Phantasy Star IV and Sonic and Knuckles in these, and they were destroyed within weeks. Also, has anyone ever scanned these covers and made them into a regular insert for a regular genny case?
Sega switching to cardboard boxes for Genny games

I hated that, when they switched. It made them no different (packaging based) than Nintendo. Those cardboard boxes just don't stand up over time. I was gonna do a similar thing, scanning and converting, with my GBA games. You can buy the DS boxes, and they accomodate GBA games as well.
I guess I should have assumed it was just them being cheap asses. I googled it for about a half hour and couldnt find anyt good scans of the covers. On here http://www.genesiscollective.com/ShowPage.php?GameLink=126
they have what looks like someone mocked up to be an insert, but its too small to be of any use printing it, it would look like hell if you enlarged it.

Yes, all the Acclaim titles had plastic boxes... very nice!
