Review of aftermarket DS cases
shenske:
If these are the same replacement cases that gamestop uses they are junk.
The plastic has a permanent marker odor and the gba slot is kind of brittle. From the pics it looks to be the same replacement cases :(

I second this sentiment. The cases Gamestop uses are noticeably cheaper material. Cases don't lock properly and it stands out among the other DS cases.

No odor and not brittle at all.
The locking and plastic quality issues I addressed, but otherwise a decent investment if you have to case a bunch of GB games and don't wanna plunk down the $$$ for OEM cases.

OK, after giving one of these a good sniff today, they do smell a bit like marker and a tab just broke on me. So, they are most likely the same stuff that GS uses.
Either way, I'm still happy with 'em for the price :)

If you ever have games you wanna trade or whatever, just put them in these generic cases and keep the real ones.
