Honestly, a LOT of people have been asking he and I about that gold cart.  Will very seriously consider a run of them. Don't see why not to be honest.

;D

The cases will be here in a week or two with any luck.  The covers are ready to go, save for the ol' double and tripe cases that I did for oddball stuff like the Rumble Paks and Pokemon Stadium + Transfer Pak.  Those I will take a look at once the cases are here and I can cut a few up to see if I can make such a thing viable to sell, or if a writeup for the modification is as far as it will go.







The cover template received a complete overhaul.  A large number of the graphics/icons/etc. were rebuilt in vector format from scratch.  No more scanned icons and other such nonsense.  I will upload the template for anyone who wants to use it for themselves once I get it cleaned up enough to make it obvious what is what for anyone besides myself :P

Man, these are so awesome. Thanks so much for sharing the template for these cases, wiggy. It's very much appreciated!

No prob!  It's my pleasure. Been a long time since I could give anything back to my favorite gaming community.

Have you decided what quantities you plan to sell the cases in?  Initially I didn't plan to getting the N64 cases, but I might go ahead and do it since I don't really need very many.  But I'm also hoping to buy in small quantities (probably 30).  I don't want too many extras since I don't see my N64 collection getting much bigger than it is. 
Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

As far as the cases themselves go, we'll likely allow as low as 3, possibly even do singles if people really want (though I doubt they will).

With covers, I'm not sure.  I have no idea how the other case/cover sellers do it.  That's a whole lot of mess to keep track of.  I'll ask shadowfox and see how he manages it.  Since it's all he does (sell cases and covers) it may be far less of a hassle for him.  We sell and produce a large number of items, and keeping track of the prints and whatnot could prove difficult.  May just be an all-or-nothing affair.  Not sure...

I switched carriers a while back and all of a sudden many of my texts just come in marked as read, which means I occasionally miss some. Someone else just sent me a message on IG for the same reason. Sorry about that :(

Jeremy and I are still working on getting shipping costs to my shop sorted out.  It ain't cheap, and I don't want it to affect the price of the cases too drastically. 

In the meantime, here are some more examples of the love that went into a lot of these covers while being converted.  This was no quick and dirty "copy, paste, scale" job.

I would love to, but that will be for another time...


In the meantime, the first complete batch of covers has been printed and cut. The shipping company called me yesterday and confirmed that the cases will arrive on Tuesday next week :)



LOTS of cases. Took my staff and I a few hours to clear enough space for them when they arrive next week.
