I have found a nice case idea for the original DMG Gameboy. I had some of my brother's old warcraft cards kicking around and one particular DVD-sized box itnruiged me. The case was a starter deck called "Drums of War" and isn't too expensive. but it come swith a case designed for 2 card decks. The ENTIRE ASSEMBLY IS MODULAR. so you can "unplug" the card deck holders and plastic oversheet from the case.

It's got tabs to hold the manuals.

Anyways, here is my box cut to fit a DMG Gameboy. I might add some foam padding.


My request is for some high-res artwork I can use to make cases for this one, and I plan to get the entire Play it Loud! sereis afterwards, so a nice template to work from would be amazing. I'm trying to create one but I keep drawing a blank.

I did the measurements and set guidelines for where the spine should be. The layout/template is here but outside the size and guidelines it's absolutely blank.

Wow, that's a fantastic find! I might have to pick one of those up myself!

Irvgotti452 just made a Game Boy cover for a 12-disc DVD case, which shouldn't be too hard to adapt to this case you've found. http://www.thecoverproject.net/forums/index.php?topic=1088.375

I wonder if an original Nintendo DS could fit in something like this?

Please share your results with us when you can!

Personally, I really hope someday someone can make a cover based on the original "Neon Tron Hands" box art:
