Like Arseen said, the outer parts of the case are more or less universal, and the inside will change depending on the system; if you check out his website, there is a prototype listing of what cases will hold what games and the like, and you can see there are a variety of them to securely hold nearly any cartridge you can think of. |

Since I haven't been keeping up to date, the N64 manual suggests that this is your answer to UGC? Which is all well and good, until I realise that there's nothing to hold other games in place. I stopped using UGC for my Mega Drive games for the same reason, as foam isn't really a good enough option for me personally. If these cases are only intended for NES games, is there enough space for dust covers? If so, awesome job dude! I like it man, it's just not for me. I'm looking forward to see what you have planned for Genesis/Mega Drive cases? --- End quote --- Arseen covered most of your concerns/questions with his post --- Quote from: Arseen on May 26, 2013, 09:56:45 AM ---If I've understood correctly, the outer parts is the master mold and outer look is always same. But inner bits of the mold can be changed to make cases that hold NES games, SNES games or N64 games (so innerly 3 different cases). Different master mold for Genesis cases. --- End quote --- As it stands now, my NES Game Case will be not compatible with Dust Covers like this: As I progress in the R&D for the NES Case, I check to see if the Dust Cover is compatible, or if any new alterations could make it compatible, without sacrificing the stability and safety of bare carts, and Large and Small Manuals. So far, I haven't been able to make both work in the same case. You could leave the Dust Cover in the original Cardboard Box, and buy some Plastic Protectors for your Boxed NES Games from VideoGameBoxProtectors.com and store them in a cool, dry, dark place. You could put your Game Manuals and Carts in my Cases, and have them on some nice Display Shelves in your Game Room. ;D If the Cover Art in my Game Cases gets sun-faded, it's easy and cheap enough to print more out, and slide it into the Jacket. As Arseen stated, there will be *separate Game Cases for NES, SNES, SFC, n64, and the Sega Game Cases will use a different Mold. *I am strongly considering using a previous design, where One of the Game Cases is compatible with both SNES and SFC Game Carts. This is mostly because European SNES Games are called Super Nintendo Games, even though they use the SFC Cart Shell, instead of the American SNES Cart Shell. This confusion may cause a European to accidentally order the wrong Game Case; that would be Very Bad, what with the costs of shipping stuff overseas. Not everyone can read English, and Google Translate isn't perfect. It can't translate words embedded in photos, and it doesn't always give accurate translations to plain text. If I do this, then Super Gameboys (and possibly also the RetroGen and RetroPort) would have to be relegated to the Blank Cart Side case. The Sega Cart Mold will make cases smaller than my Nintendo Game Cases. My Sega Game Cases will be near-identical in outward design and size to Original Sega Cases. |

Because they were not good to begin with. If your manual tabs for Sega games are gonna be like DVD cases, it would be great! 2) They will come with hang tabs? I always found that to be quite annoying. I just wanted to remove them from my game cases. XD --- End quote --- The Manual Tabs in my Sega Cases will be the same as a DVD Case. Current Sega Case Designs exclude the Hang-Tab. No Hang Tab makes them easier to Package and Ship, and will be one less thing to stress out over, during R&D. :P |

If there the same size as the retail cases, then you'll have a faithful customer in me! When you can get a picture comparing the two cases send it onto us. I'm taking to guy at the moment about buying all his sports titles for the cases, he wants 3 euros a pop, and I think that's the best deal I'll be able to find in Ireland. Other places are asking for like 7 euro, but I know this guy, and have been a good customer. I should be able to work something out, but if you have cases in development that are nigh ready, then I might hold off, but if we're talking months, then I go with this guy on this lot, but do keep us updated on the Mega Drive cases! Sounds good! |

Seymours Sega cases will be more than a few months off. |
