Hi all!
It looks as if my shipment is going to be here like...tomorrow!!! :o
So! The sales of the Blank cases are back up and available on my site! http://www.customgamecases.com/#!online-store/c1m9j/!/Blank-Cases/c/13253523/offset=0&sort=priceAsc (http://www.customgamecases.com/#!online-store/c1m9j/!/Blank-Cases/c/13253523/offset=0&sort=priceAsc)
All 3 case types are available as blank. (GB, NES, and Genny!) first come, first serve. 8)

So are you shipping out pre orders for Genesis tomorrow too?
-
Yay! 100 NES cases ordered!
Hey, just out of curiosity, how long do these take to ship/receive? I only ask because I move in about a month.
Just wanted to make sure they get to the right address. ;D
-
Just ordered 100 GB cases

So are you shipping out pre orders for Genesis tomorrow too?
Yes! Once the truck arrives and everything is sorted, we will start shipping out the Genesis cases! We have a few days I think, I am still processing NES orders with covers too.

I'm pretty sure you will get it way before a month! If not, we'll figure it out. ;) (Happens all the time :D)
-
And I just paid my invoice! Sorry it took so long haha.
-
Just ordered 500 cases :o
Cases I received earlier were perfect. I wouldn't want to case my precious NES cases with anything else. This will cover my 300+ NES games and whatever else i may come across on my quest to a almost complete NES set. Plus, i hear the cover for them are pretty cool too ;)

I've heard the same as well. ;)
I can't wait to print mine out.

Kind of wish I didn't invest in 1000 UGC a little while back. Still have to mod out like 400 or so. Sigh...

I'm getting ready to put in another order of 100 UGCs (for misc games like Atari or ColecoVision). If you think you have too many and want to unload a case, let me know. Obviously, I need to get them for the same price or less than what I would pay mediashelving.com, but I don't mind taking some off your hands if you have too many.
-
And again shipping kills the deal for me. *sigh*
-
Are there still plans to eventually make Atari Jaguar cases?

I will be using them all actually, and probably more in the future. 700 for just my NES library and then I still have my SNES and 64 games.

That's cool. Thought I would check. I've already put out a quote request to mediashelving, so I'll probably just go that route.

Order placed! Does anyone know when we will get access to the new covers?
-
Shadow said it would be a few days. He said he'd make a thread for it.
-
Well my friend and I just bought an order of 100 to split.
Shadowfox whats next on the schedule? SNES?
-
Hey Shadowfox, what shipping courier do you use? I am excited to see that my cases are shipped! I was just wondering who I should be on the lookout for.
Thanks!

Thanks!
If it's a large order within the USA I use FedEx, if it's a smaller order or international I use USPS.

What dimensions are the cover inserts for the case? there are a few different sega variants im just wondering which ??px by ??px way yours are :)
-
I've purchased the 100 GB cases. Can you please provide me the tracking number? As I remember your shipment arrive yesterday. Thanks.

Will we be seeing a link to the completed NES covers soon?

It looks like he was online Today at 09:43:57 AM, so I am pretty sure he received all our messages, but still no response from him. HMMMMMM

This will be released alongside the covers and template.

Arseen and I are working on it. Even though I have painstakingly improved each of the covers I worked on some would still not pass quality control to be posted on the site (simply need 100% new scans). Simplest way around this is to create a series of pages on the forum with preview images and download links. Creating preview images and download links for 750+ covers takes time.
Covers that do pass quality (majority) will be posted to the site's main database. They're coming and i appreciate everyone patience :)

I sincerely hope you are creating the preview images/thumbnails using a Photoshop batch script and not doing this manually.
Side note, you signature link doesn't work :(

Maybe you are already doing this, but I would suggest a list of the games in one post (with no preview or images), with the name of each game linking to the download. Follow that with a post (or possible two depending on character limit) that has each preview. I just like the idea of the first post having a list without pictures, because I think that would be easier for me to download the ones I need. I don't plan on downloading a full set as I'll never achieve that feat.
Just out of curiosity, how many NES game will still be missing covers when this is complete? Also, are we including assessories like Game Genie, cleaning kits or Everdrives? I know those are low priority, but I would lik to include them eventually.
Thanks for all your time and effort in this!!! ;D

The thumbnails are created from the file hosting service I am using
I know. Somehow everything got deleted from my box.net. I will reupload everything when i get them time. To be honest, I don't even remember everything i had in there.

We are creating one thread per alphabetical character and one thread as a navigation page so you can choose the letter you want to be navigated to.
I have no idea how many covers will still need to be made after. There are a lot of unofficial NES releases and translations so it is hard to calculate. If I had to guess I'd say ~100 (but they are mostly really obscure titles). Unless you have a complete NES set I bet my covers will cover 99% of most everyone's collection.
I am creating covers for accessories and Everdrives but not all have been created yet.

Oh, I was just referring to licensed games. If you don't know, that's ok. I was just curious.
-
damn, I was excited about these genesis cases, but including postage 100 cases will cost me about $7nzd each case :(
-
So when are the pre-orders going to be shipped out?

Can the NES cases hold the official Nintendo Cleaning Kit? I was thinking of getting one, but judging from the pictures, it doesn't look like it would fit in it.

Sort of. They don't fit perfectly, but you DON'T have to modify them. When the case is closed, nothing moves when I shake the case, so I would say it fit's pretty well.

There are about 4 more orders which I have not printed the postage for yet. (Since the printer is sitting right next to my sleeping Sister-in-Laws head here at Mid-Night) But tomorrow morning ALL orders will be dropped off completely! WOO! 8)

Yay!

Great news. I ran out of GB cases the same time I ran out of UGCs, so I might be getting another order of those soon too.

Tis' the plan! ...But I need to pay the factory the remaining cost I own from this last order ;) So it all depends on sales at the moment. ;D

How far down the line are jaguar cases? I just realized they fit pretty nicely into Genesis cases with a small mod, and don't know whether to just do that or hold out.
I don't really see jag cases as a big money spinner for you, as the library is pretty small and the number of die hard collectors pretty tiny (I would imagine).

Yeah, I've been happy just going with the UGC route. I know he has plans to make cases for just about every type of game, but for me personally, I have my limit. I'm really only interested in buying cases that don't require modification. That's why the GB and NES cases were always top priority for me. I was sick of modifying NES and DS cases. The Sega cases are a small expection since these are basically the same as the originals. However, I have to be honest and say that I probably wouldn't order Jaguar cases even if they were available (as much as I hate to say it). Maybe I will change my mind if they ever come out, but I'm pretty happy with my fully cases Jaguar collection as it is..

Are N64 and SNES cases still coming?

N64 Hype!

Same!

Ya I've been suggesting Game Gear Cases to Shadowfox since day 1 lol. Been wanting them pretty bad.
-
are the Game Boy cases out of stock? Any idea when they will be back in stock?
-
Not sure if you knew but GB cases are in stock, just got my order of 50 in to the house yesterday, haven't had a chance to open them but last time only 2 were bad. As usual, the box was well packed and I'm happy as shit. Just wanted to let you know they are in stock and shipping!
-
Thanks, I actually ordered some last week. Just waiting for them to arrive now.
-
I can't wait for Game Gear cases too. Once they're available and someone makes a template for the cases, I'll start making Game Gear covers too! I've been making Game Boy covers for 3 years now.

e_brugal has been trying to get scans together for this purpose. There's a whole thread down in the Raws section for it.
-
I just ordered a 25-pack of the NES cases, and wanted to thank Shadowfox for his amazing work on them. I'm ironing out the details on my custom template, too; hoping to have it ready before the weekend's out.

If only that gameboy case fits Game Gear Games I really need custom Game Gear Cases for my loose games!

what about Master System ones? I can use Genesis cases but the clips bends a bit and could break off.
