BitBox Game Cases - Coming next: SNES/SFC, N64, & GB/GBC/GBA

Its a shame the the black sleeves don't fit.  What if I did a little cutting? How hard would it be to mod them to fit the sleeve?

I have over 160 Nes games so if i start caseing them,  I am going to need a lot more shelf space.

Cutting vac-formed cases like these would seriously hurt the structural rigidity

Though I think these cases seriously negate any need for a dust sleeve. These suckers hold NES carts super tight and there is virtually zero way for dust to reach the contacts.

You can not mod these types of cases.

We figured most people would not want to sleeves on while in the case. Like I said in the other thread, it is kind of redundant. If we allowed the sleeves then it may have made the cart fit loose. If you looks at the images of the case with a cart into them you can see why the sleeves will not fit.

My main goal is not for dust protecting.   I just want somthing that looks good on the shelf and keeps the game complete with manual + maps , sleeve, and game cart.

I would like to see one of these in person and attempt to make the mod.

Trust me you will not want to mod these. I am not saying that because I care if you mod them personally, it just won't work well with this type of case. It would look terrible and like wiggy said would pretty much destroy the rigidity of the case.

These kind of cases won't suport any mod, won't work what you are trying to do, after the mod maybe it wont close or maybe it would open easily,  but if you want to try it is up to you

Anywho, back on topic.

GB and GBC are the same dimensions. GBA has same main width, but with added the 2 pegs at each side. Are there any crazy style GB, GBC, or GBA carts out there?

Other than those already mentioned...

Kirby's Tilt'n'Tumble's cart is slightly different from standard GBC carts. It's dimensions are mostly the same but it's slightly thicker at the top.

Drill Dozer is another GBA game with a unique cart shape. Its dimensions are similar to Yoshi Topsy Turvy, but not exactly the same.

Pokemon-clone "RoboPon" had a weird tall cartridge with an IR port built in.

Gameboy Camera, obviously

And various models of Gameshark/Action Replay/etc.

That's all I can think of.

If it was me I would just sell the black sleeves on ebay or trade them for games etc the bitbox cases are really awesome they trump sleeves anyday.

I think there is a list on here that is the definitive list of "weirdly-shaped Game Boy cartridges". After searching and not finding anything definitive, I may be mistaken.

Try Nintendo Age forums if you want a definitive collector's answer.

Can't recall the titles, but there are those games that have a light sensor in them as well. They're uniquely shaped.

The "Boktai" series on GBA fits that description.

I love the idea of these bitboxes but being from the uk its very impractical to order any due to shipping costs.
It would be great if you could look at getting a UK or european distributer. I know UGC are sold by gameseek so maybe they'd be interested in your product.

We have had some international buyers, but yeah shipping is a problem. These are twice the weight of UGC. Finding some international distributors is something we eventually want to do.

Just an announcement, we are completely out of NES game cases. We currently have another batch being manufactured. We hope to have them back in stock by mid-December. They will be back at a new lower price.

[Rx_79]

What was the new pricing and did you mention that you are having Snes & N64 ones made as well? I really hate bending my manuals for SNES and N64, In the UGCs.
