If they were thinner NES carts would not fit too good.... You know thoase NES carts are not sooo small.... The'd never fit in a DVD case.... ;)

Yeah i know but the UGC seem like they have room to spare, it just seems like its a waste of valuable shelf space :)
nate1749:
Is this how everyone is using the NES Box art? By modifying these UGC cases to fit nes carts?  Is there a case out that there just holds NES carts and has a sleeve that will fit the art?

I've used both methods to modify the cases and I don't like either of them.  Soldering means I'm melting plastic (cancer fumes) and with the dremel bit little bits of hot plastic end up flying everywhere, plus the bit needs to be cleaned every case.

I've done about 6 cases so far and am not motivated to do anymore...

 I have a small toothed wheel for cutting soft materials I use.  Looks like a small Thick saw blade

I've been using some horizontal shears (think glorified fingernail clippers) from the hardware store.
It doesn't leave a clean line, like a dremel or soldering iron... but it takes a lot less time!
