As far as I know, there's only two. Both are in the large double disc boxes. One is the original print, and the other is the same but with the greatest hits green bar. What I have here doesn't seem to match though. It's both discs in a slim double disc Ps1 case with no green bar. To my knowledge they only slimmed down double discs when they were re released. Do I just have a really rare variant?
i suppose someone could have taken a case for resident evil nemesis and swapped the insides but that seems unlikely.

No, that seems pretty likely to me. I've stumbled upon double-sized cased games where the former owner swapped out the original case and stuck the manual in a single disc case, with the original back inlay. Note how the picture of Lynx doesn't have the ridged sidebar single-disc cased PS1 games ALWAYS have on the left side. Sorry.
Get a double case and the real front cover and you've got yourself a CIB version, though!

Damn, thought I might have lucked out with a rare version. Any site out there catalog variants on game cases? Metroid prime alone has 4 or 5 that I know of.

MobyGames is decent, but I hardly ever find the info I'm looking for there for variants :(

You'll run out of old PC games eventually.

www.Game-Rave.com (http://www.Game-Rave.com) kinda likes the PlayStation. Or so i've heard.
That is not a variant. Just someone slapping the manual and discs/rear insert into a slim double cd case. And doing that with a double cd game is more common than you might think.

Jason from Game-Rave did a content dump on RFGeneration, so everything from Game-Rave should be on RFGeneration now :)
I added ~30 variations in one night for PS1, but his stuff went in first and he added ~500 variations. Ridiculous, but meticulously documented so I can't complain.
