Emmit Brown works better for me. I think I'm more crazy dude with WAY too much going on than dude who makes bombs from wax paper, chewing tobacco, and aluminum foil :P
edit: Neighbor just called to tell me he sees my Halloween decorations lit up. Going home!!!

Oh. My. Gosh! I so can't wait!
BTW, how do you think the real deal OEM SNES cart labels are made? Dye sublimation? I'm not too keen on printing processes (although I am getting pretty familiar with metal forming and injection molding), just asking. OEM labels have that look & feel that I can't compare to consumer grade printer/photo paper...
That would be amazing if you offered custom label services that feel & look close to the real thing. I'd end up buying a crap load of them and swap out boards into sports shells with custom labels! :D

It's possible, but I also don't know all that much about very specific processes like this. I would think that they more than likely printed offset and used a lamination before cutting the rolls. That's my best guess. I think the DS process may have been too pricey for that sort of thing.
I've made a few for N64 guy. I found a good paper that's pretty close to the N64 look and feel, plus it's coated, so it takes a LOT of abuse to damage it (unlike the OEM labels).
I just had to post this because it's full of LULZ! ;D
That's quality right there. Should we tell them that electrical tape won't keep its bond when applied in that way? Oops, I guess I just did. They'll find out soon enough when they all start peeling off. DERP!
Also gotta love this.
I wonder what on Earth could have made them switch from the flimsy, OfficeMax stock and eBay inks that they were using? Hmm...
Dr.Agon:
are both those from your "favorite site"!?
what the hell are they doing to that ds case?
wiggy:
Indeed ;D
It's been modified for GB/GBC games. Looks real professional, eh? ::)
