I noticed that DS games can fit into 3DS game cases, so I was womdering someone on this forum could creat a new template for the DS games that changes them into 3DS covers? The DS logo should be on the right of the case like noram, but elongated to fit properly iside a 3DS case. Any help would be appreciated.

Here is a list of games I would like to be converted into 3DS covers:

GTA: China Town Wars
Zubo
Golden Sun: Dark Dawn
Legendo of Zelda: Spirit Tracks
Final Fantasy 3
Final Fantasy 4
Scribblenauts
Solatorobo: Red the Hunter
Aliens Infestation
Castlevanai: Order of Ecclessia
Final Fantasy Tactics A2
Kirby Mass Attack
Chrono Trigger
Ghost Trick
Okamiden
The World Ends With You
Metroid Prime Hunters
9 Hours, 9 Persons, 9 Doors
New Super Mario Brothers
Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood
Suikoden: Tierkries
Dragon Quest 9


P.S. I hope that I am not spamming. ;D

Why would you do this?  ???

It'd be much more economically sound just to keep your DS games in DS cases.

Ehh ...a little bit. For sake of convenience and availability of the normal DS cases & covers it would be much easier to stick with the standard cases.  Everyone is entitled to what they prefer though  :)

I just like the way the 3DS game cases look and prefer them to the DS cases. Honestly, the DS cases are hideous, so I would like to switch them out. I have to admit, I do have some strange ideas for covers, but i am very comitted to my games.

Well, the sooner this project gets done the sooner that I can get thse cases to you. ;)

I am also planning to use the red DS cases for a special project that I am working on that involves Wiiware and Virtual Console.

Another person on this forum requested that covers be made for each system available on Virtual Console because he was going to give each Virtual Console its own SD with each of the downloaded games on that SD card. I resonded that could he make the same thing but for individual games. So for eaxample, I just Megaman X, so I requested that the SNES cover be converted to fit inside a DS case. I bought a bunch of SD card from a guy at the flea market and I intendo on making cases and covers for my entire collection.

Again, I prefer the 3DS cases over the DS ones.

Here is the thread that I am talking about:

you should wait for the vita to come out and see if those cases are compatible since they would be more space saving than the 3ds's.

No offense but that seems like a really dumb and money-consuming idea.

It will not be as money consuming as you think.
