I'll take a picture when I have time tomorrow. It does look ok but not perfect(I suppose it can't be perfect :) )....

sorry to dig up an old thread


tiktektak,
do you still have your picture of you modified case for NES games?
i'd really like to see how they fit

thanks

tiktektak:

There you go....









shenske:

thanks i appreciate the pictures, it gives me a lot better idea.

2 questions:

1.  Do the games fit snug or still kind of loose?
2.  How long does it take (roughly) to modify a UGC in this way?

thanks

tiktektak:

They fit pretty good because if you always melt the plastic at the same points they always fit snuggly... It is a rather lucky coincidence that they fit so good...

Time is maybe the only part which is a little factor you should consider.... You know a soldering iron goes through the plastic like a knife through butter BUT it is a process were you need patience or otherwise you could damage the case on the outside or else... I think around 10-15 Minutes per case if you are cautious...

If only these UGC were a little thinner, maybe just enough to fit the game, almost lke a dvd case that way one could fit more on a shelf!! If i had the money i would invest in a game case specifically for NES replacement!  :'(
