Gotta save a bit so I can get a loan to buy a house.
luckily you don't have bank of America there.  Took me 6 months dealing with them on this house, ended up switching banks, and got the loan done in 8 days.

Just pray that BoA doesn't buy your bank in the future, or you'll have to deal with them anyways. That's happened to some people who specifically avoided them.

I've not had issues with them once they have the mortgage, as a matter of fact that's why I tried to go with them for the second.  The mortgage for this place went to a dinky little place with bad reviews, but at least unlike bank of America, they can properly take out my mortgage on their own every month.

Funny coincidence.  I am planning on modifying some of these cases today to fit some Game Gear games. I will post pictures when I do.  However, there are pictures already posted if you want to go looking for them.
Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

Can you post some of these? I'm deciding between modding some cases or waiting it out.

Yes, I'll post them tonight.  I finished about a dozen of them yesterday and they worked out pretty well.  I just ran out of time to get pictures taken and posted.

Anyone have any ideas for modding these cases for Game Gear? I have a pretty small GG library and I'm thinking that some careful cuts would keep the carts in place using the GB walls as supports. Just not sure where would be best...

There's no quick and easy way.  You'd have to cut about 3/4 of the support/clips out before they'd even fit, then you'd need to devise something to hold them in place   :-\


Not necessarily, if you don't care about it being centered. I think it can be done with a few simple cuts/clips and little or no additions to hold it in place. Here's a couple options I came up with.

Red is what to cut, black is put something there to keep it in place, mockup is approximate size based on my tests:







Obviously his GG cases will be awesome and I'll be getting them whenever he does make them. But he he's likely making his NES, SNES, N64, Genesis, EA/32X Genesis and possibly double-GB cases before that. Besides, for now I currently only own 9 GG games, and I'm going to end up with several extra GB cases with my next batch, so I figure - why not? It's a lot cleaner and a lot less work than chopping up DS cases.

Went with the first method I posted above, and the results were very good - fits nicely in place with only a tiny bit of wiggle room vertically. Closes just fine! The cut was pretty easy using an x-acto knife and end cutters.  8)





That's how I did mine, anyway.

These are the other picutres I was refering to.  Mine are a little different, so I will still post those later tonight.  However, this way works just fine as well. ;D
