Yup - at the speed things are moving here, I think seymore has missed the boat!

Lol, hope someone get fast on this and finish the nes, N64, snes case

Like it was said earlier Shadowfox and Seymor should pool their knowhow.

I'm fairly sure Seymor has some info on Genesis stuff that could help with the SEGA cases, as far as cart sizes and manuals go.
And according to his last post on the topic, his cases should be out by fall at the latest.
The biggest thing holding him up is his plastic guy, he has nearly finalized cases and has enough money to pay for them.
Maybe SF ans SO should talk to help move things along faster.

Don't know about the Genesis, but SO has good ideas how to do the UGC replacement cases so they fit all manuals.
So maybe SO does UGC replacements, SF Genesis?

Thats what I was thinking, and 2 people working can get out other cases faster, like Gamegear, Saturn, Virtual Boy ECT.
Shadowfox:
I think once the GB style cases are in and I see what ACTUALLY happens with them (how many, how quickly) this will dictate what I do next. (It looks like I'm going to be swamped, which would allow me to jump on other moulds quickly) I know SO said this Fall, but if things go like I think they will I should have UGC, NES, Gensis, AND GameGear completed by fall.
I am wanting to do this the right way and FAST. So the sooner I hammer one out the quicker I can move into the next, and frankly, I will probably be working on 2-3 moulds at a time once the GB one is paid off.
The reason for my speed is up until this point I have not created a Business, but even with my sales for the cases/covers is continually growing I know I can't deem this a "hobby" anymore and once these GB cases are here the gig is up and $1000's will be coming in and out and I will HAVE to make it a Business. SO! Might as well hit the ground running, hammer all these babies out so by the end of the year I can sit down to do taxes, have 8-ish case moulds, and deal with Uncle Sam then. 8)
FIRST GB Cases.... then SPEED!

2: Make case that would have empty right side that would have groove around the edges where you could slide sort of like plate that would be made for each cart type separate that way you would have perfect fit for each cart.

I suggested this to seymore onion.
That way the case without any "caddy" could be used to store any hardware/odd sized carts/promo material.
One mold for all systems, bringing cost of the case down, and if the caddies are then sold separately, it means you don't have to keep a large stock of multiple cases - bringing down warehousing costs.
