They aren't out yet.  ;) I am going to send a few of these proofs to a handful of guys here on TCP and get their opinion on them before approving them.

I'll be working on a pre-order page on my site, I'm going to do something like $1.25ea (before shipping) and any amount. And probably $1.00ea on 500+ (before shipping)

Once I get the the cases in I'll be changing the prices to be really close to the gameboy cases price scale. (So something like $2.50ea for 1pcs - $1.00ea for 1000pcs)

The black case looks great. I'm in for 50 or so. Once you get to work on the SNES ones, though, I'll be down for 100+.

Shut up and take my money.  200 as I've said before.  I'm leaning heavily towards black, I think they'll look amazing next to DS, Sega, and your GB* cases... kinda make it so "Clear is for UGC aka not-quite-perfect cases, Black is for proper cases!" in my collection :D  Of course this means any further cases you make need to have a black option too, but I imagine that shouldn't be an issue.

Seriously, I will be in for an official preorder as soon as I can.

If I wouldn't already had my NES collection in carved UGC's, I would definitely opt for these in the grey color. They look so pristine and the shiny outer sleeve is better than the shower windows style of the new UGC.

I may still buy a few ones to store the thick manuals -- Dragon Warrior 1-4 and Final Fantasy, etc...

There is just one issue I see with internal configuration: it prevents storing cartridge with the black dust sleeve - Yes, it's overkill, but I like it that way :)
If the bottom holder would be made symmetric to the top ones, with the side parts a bit longer to reach the widest part of the cartridge, it would allow storing cartridges in dust sleeve and still be secure when there is none.

well, these look absolutely great!

shadowfox, after being late to the conversation on the GB cases which turned out amazing, I'd love to give my opinion on these as you finalize.  If you can spare 1 or 2 I'd love to test for you (while pledging to buy 100). Unless you've got that covered then I will patiently wait.  :)

NEW NES Cases Pre-Order Available now!

Okay! So I decided to create the pre-orders for this case on my site. That way I'll have all your mailing addresses as well as how many and what color. Smiley I went the extra mile and figured out all the shipping rates! (It took a while) So now the prices are deemed per Reagan and shipping is included in the price!

You can pre-order the NES cases here: http://www.customgamecases.com/

If any of you are wanting to do MASSIVE orders (like 5,000pcs) let me know! And we can work something out for price and shipping.

TELL YOUR FRIENDS AND YOUR FRIENDS FRIENDS!!!!!
