bummer, oh well

I'm talking with him right now about adding provisions to the N64 cases for memory cards. I would love to see these things come to fruition considering some of the issues getting the UGC lately.

If you read thru this topic, you would see that he is already adding slots for memory card or two per N64 case.

Yep, I saw that.

When I started talking to him he didn't seem to have that in mind even though he had thought about it previously. He told me he wasn't sure how he would do it since he planned to share the SNES and N64 cases. I have some cases that were sold when the N64 was out that have a spot for a memory card. I sent him some pictures and he likes them. I'm going to be sending him a case to help him out.

Just hoping these actually become a reality. I know I will buy quite a few for multiple systems.

The carts are going to be held in place with some soft tabs, so they won't fall out when you open the case, or wiggle around and scuff your manuals. 
Another advantage to doing it this way, is that you all *won't have to spend any additional money on Dust Sleeves.
This will save money in the long term, and take away the hassle of trying to find a source for them, or hunt down a game that includes them.

*The only exception to this is will be the CD-Style Trays for TG16/PCE Hucard Games I'm going to make.
Without a sleeve, they will rattle around.
They will also be compatible the OEM Sleeves, so you don't have to purchase mine, if you already have sleeves for them.
The DVD-Style HuCard & Sega Card cases will work just fine, with or without the Sleeves.

On the days that I hit each $ Goal, to begin production on each case type, I'll announce it here.
This should give ya'll at least a good month or two to sell any extra SNES or NES Dust Sleeves that you have.
If you still have the Original Game Packaging (cardboard boxes) for any of your games, it would probably be a good idea to keep the OEM Dust Sleeves in those boxes.
That way, if you need, or want, to sell your games in the future, you can do so as "Complete in Box", thus raising the value.

The n64 Cases will have full support for Official Nintendo-Branded Memory Paks. 

Also, the DVD-Style PlayStation 1 & 2 Game Cases will fully support both PS1 and PS2 Memory Cards that are the same dimensions as official Sony-Branded ones.
There will also be multi-disk variants of the PS1/PS2 DVD-Style cases.
After I post this, I'm going to add a placeholder page, for the Sony Game Cases, on my website.
These cases are currently low priority, mostly because I haven't done any research on the availability of these cases from other parties, just yet. huge ) Game Cases.

I just finished reading about the whole GamesCaseWorld fiasco.

As many of you already know, I'm also selling some used games on my website, and I include a UGC with them, along with pre-printed artwork for the UGC's Sleeve.
This is a one-time thing.
The games are all from my own personal collection, and I'm only selling them to help raise money to make the Onion Game Cases.
Once all of the Games in my personal collection are sold, I won't be selling games any more.
In fact, in a couple of years, I'm going to start rebuilding my Game Collection (for personal use).

I included the UGCs with the games, for several reasons:
1. I had already printed the covers for them, for personal use.
2. As a courtesy to buyers of the games.
3. To help promote TCP, and to advertise the coolness that is Vintage Games in Hard Plastic Cases w/Artwork.

If any of you have a problem with me including your artwork in a UGC, with a Game Sale, or would like me to add your name/give credits, please let me know.
I'll either remove the Cover from the UGC, or add your name to the listing (it's your choice).

I will never sell an empty case with any of your artwork.
On every listing, of every Onion Game Case Design, that supports Artwork, on my website, there is a note about TCP, and a link to it.

Lies!  We'll have none of your treachery around here!  Men, bring the gallows!! 

[Arseen]

I think we can forgive him this one single time if he makes the cases.

Hey does make a very good case... *rimshot*

Can't the tabs that lock the nes game down be cut off to make it accommodate the black cases. After all we already have to do a lot of cutting on the UGC covers.

Suggestion:

How about using Kickstarter as a way to get cases going?

You could list several different styles of case, each under it's own project.  Users could donate towards whichever case they want, basically "pre-ordering" the styles they want.  Once you reach your goal, you collect the money and place the order for the cases.

This would allow you to potentially make multiple styles of cases at once without worry of not selling enough to cover your costs.

I'd support this.

I agree with UncleBob and Arseen Would totally support that
