He's stolen a little from everyone here. None of my covers, but definitely scans that I've spent plenty of time cleaning up.

Also, he has the balls to post up 3 or 4 covers on this site and act like he's some big contributor as if that would somehow excuse what he does.

Making money on everyone else's hard work. Asshole.

They plug the hell out of this site. I suppose its more so infuriating due to they are apparently making some nice money from doing it. Now, undercut them and give them some competition! I love the weatherstripping tho lol

This video is interesting as they correct themselves at 32 seconds from "the artwork we do" to "the artwork we print" lol

Lol @ jshackles comment.

Interestingly enough, game-case-world is actually how I found this site in the first place.  I never bought anything from him, but finding his ebay store, then his site, and then the mention to this site renewed my interest in collecting retro games.  More specifically, it has inspired me to print a lot of covers myself, as well as redesign many of them to personal preference.  So for that, I thank him.  But seeing him cash in on these cases is crazy.  It does make me want to try to undercut him, but I'm not sure I have the time.

Edit: In fact, the first covers I printed were the Shenske FF covers to house my entire PS/PS2 Final Fantasy series (of which I had to get a few titles so it would look all nice).

I was making labels for rpgs not released in North America, and trying to make a repro cart.

and fantasying about making my collection of games looking like I remembered at the rental store, and some where on my search for cases.

I stumbled on to this site.

Rechargeable battery pack ;D

Unfortunately, it doesn't work with my GBA SP front light modded GBA.  It only puts out 2.4v, so the LED is super dim to the point of being pretty much useless.   Luckily I've two other GBAs that'll gladly take it :)

Check out seller "alanodee". Selling lots of really nice, expensive, rare consoles but can't be bothered to test them. I asked about the NR Reader that he's selling and he "reassured" me that the guy he bought it from assured him that it works.  I'm like "are you fucking kidding?!" Seriously, how can you expect to sell stuff like that without even testing the stuff?

That's a crappy eBay seller if I've ever seen one.

I wonder what the manuals say, some do not have the right cover art so they are not scans,
