The Rise of a new UGC :)

So the factory never received my first sample I sent to them like 3 weeks ago so Friday I shipped them out another sample. :)
I told my girl over there that while we are waiting for the Genesis shell to arrive we will start working on the next case. I personally would like to move on the NES cases (Just due to the fact I hate cutting out the tabs from UGC over and over for clients, I had this one guy from Canada who ordered 500 cases from me and 350 of them were NES! :-[ needless to say it took a while to do.) So! Does the spine have to be larger to accommodate said NES/ Famicom cart with proper Manual? Also, I've had a few people ask me if the game carts "clip/click" into place (like the GB carts do) Is this something you would like to see on these new cases?

For me, it's important that the new case be able to sit next to a UGC with very few differences. Because I've invested so much into my NES UGC's, I don't want to replacement them. Rather, I would like to start using your new cases for all NES games I buy going forward. In other words, I wouldn't want to use a new case if it didn't match my current UGC's.
That's why I'm buying your new GB cases. They can sit next to my current DS cases, and you won't be able to tell the difference. I don't have to replace my DS cases, and I can add your cases for all new GB games going forward.

^^^I too also agree with this. The outside dimensions should be the same, but the million dollar (well at least few thousand dollar) question is: Is the spine thick enough? If no, how much thicker does it need to be? (I'm trying not to have to alter any of the existing artwork that is already here on TCP)
palmer6strings:
This actually how I make my cases and I honestly like them a little smaller like this.
Blumpkin:
I'll echo the sentiments of others, it's very important that the new NES cases look like current UGC. As for the insides, I prefer the cases to hold a cart in dust sleeve. Nothing against a "snap" feature, but cart plus dust sleeve are how I currently stow my NES games in modified UGC.
Ozzy_98:
Why bother with them if they're just "Like" the UGCs, unless it's a nes-only UGC.
