If I am too useless to mod ds/gba cases into gb cases, there's no way I can pull this off.
Daroga's guide 1.0
http://timandkaren.net/ds/WWTwistDSv1.0.pdf
(I think that's the latest version)
-
That guy should set up a $10 case-making service, IMO.
-
One of these days I may actually do this. Right after I mod my DS cases for GB/GBC.
-
I did this for mine, I'll do it for you doom if you'd like. I didn't use bolts, but I did use super strong industrial glue.
-
Aww, only people who command respect get it done for them. :(

Your post didn't say that you wanted one. I bet Satoshi Matrix would be happy to do one for you, as well as one for me :)
-
I said earlier, "That guy should set up a $10 case-making service", implying that I would have been willing to pay him $10 to make me a Wario-Ware custom case (presumably to cover the cost of buying two empty cases, and to ship them).
Admittedly, those bolts actually look really cool, but obviously not everyone has access to a drill. Just having a Warioware Twistwed compatible case period would be awesome.

Hell, for $10 i'd do it.
i got a steady enough hand and i wouldn't use bolts but probably a lot of glue
then again $10 (me) vs. $X (satoshi Matrix)
Satoshi Matrix gets dibs though, he offered first
EDIT: I have some different ideas though, i probably wouldn't do it quite like the guide.
-
I'd do it, but it would have to be shipping extra. Two DS cases to ship to the US = ~$6 each way, so $12 each.
-
$12 just for shipping? Ouch.
Where you located?

Does that include the cases? Shipped (to USA)?

probably just $2 extra for the cases i have to buy more anyway.
i don't think shipping will be $12 for me either.
i would think i can fit it in a small mannilla envelope with some padding too.
once again probably only a few bucks for for shipping.
(i'll have to double check at my post office)
EDIT: Before i get too ahead of my self ... i don't actually have Waioware Twisted so that poses a problem when trying to judge the size to cut out for the game.

If you looked at the guide you could probably get a pretty good idea of the dimensions.
Perhaps you should make a "prototype" case first, and after doing so estimate how much the supplies, shipping, and labor is worth, and then give a price based on that?

i kind of want to avoid making a prototype. since i don't have the game i wouldn't want an extra double wide case just laying around
-
Well, I only suggested a prototype because you may not get everything right the first time. Certainly it would be better than nothing, but you wouldn't want to send out a case if it sucks, no?

i would feel too guilty sending out poor production case, makes me look bad.
(even if only the person i sent it to sees it)
the way i want to do it requires:
crazy glue (or some other super adhesive)
soldering iron
xacto knife
clear sheet of thin glossy see through plastic
-
Just make sure the game, you know, actually fits if you send it to someone.

i'll need to find the game first, i don't feel comfortable guessing.
unfortunately its not really a game i want so its kind of low on the list of games i need to pick up.
(i'll pick it up if its about $10 next time i go to gamestop)

thanks but $7.75 shipping :(
(i'm a cheapass)
-
Oh Wow! its been a while since we talked about this one. Sorry to bring it back up
You still need a double wide case Doom?
IMANDIX Prototype.

I need to get a few more supplies but if all goes well it should look like this when all done.
I created both silver spine and black spine covers but i preview them in silver ;)
Let me know if you still need one
-
I do still need it... now I need to get an envelope for shipping WarioWare: Twisted!. We can discuss further via PM. What distinguishes that cover from the ones already on the site? I'm sure yours is better, I just don't see the difference.
-
Just to jump on here, but I'd gladly pay 10 bucks for someone to make me a warioware case. lol as with everything else I won't have the money 'till summer though :/
-
You dont need to ship WarioWareTwisted, I borrowed it from Gamestop to make the correct cuts.
The main difference is with my version I cut off the plastic sleeves and am putting one large piece over the front, back and both spines.
I'll show some pics in a few days when it's all put together. As far as selling a bunch of them I'm going to take it one at a time to see how it goes.
-
Anyone still willing to do this? I actually have a paying job now :P

Hey Leela you know who I remember? That guy who used to bend things. You know, Hermes.
