GB/GBC Foam inserts for UGC and SeymoreOnline cases
Blumpkin:
A DS sized case that could fit a standard GBA/GBC cart without modding would be awesome. I'd even take an insert that just let you cut out all the guts of a DS case indiscriminately then slap the insert into place.
wiggy:
That would work for me as well, plus it'd be dirt cheap!
videogametrader:
Thanks for the replies.
I acutally thought of trying to use DS cases or even PSP cases but they just need too much modification to work. We have over 2000 GameBoy games in stock. It would be too time consuming to modify those cases.
I would disagree that the UGC cases would have too much wasted space. If you look at a Game Cube Disc, it really isn't much larger than a Game Boy or Game Gear Cart (I know the manual is full size) but I don't hear wasted space arguments for those. Perhaps its because Nintendo used those larger cases so people don't care. UGC cases are only a few inches taller then original GB/GBC boxes so i don't think storage space would be in issue. Also, many people place original dreamcast and playstation cases into the DVD size cases which is basically the same thing, size wise, as using UGC instead of a DS case.
If someone could design a vertical Game Boy template i think it would look very sharp.

Still bit wasted space I'd say US thickness is better, 3DS ones might be too thin for multi-language EU manuals.

Yeah I've been doing all GB/GBC games in 3DS cases. Putting foam strips in so they don't rattle (there's a thread on this). And all my GBA in DS cases. Collection is looking very nice so far.
