Slightly. If you have already printed covers for the UGC they will fit just not perfectly. The case is wider to accommodate the manuals.

I'm taking this opportunity to make everything uniform and perfect ;D

And, since I know you'll share, I love you for it.

I'm also hoping you really mean EVERYTHING too ;D

I will most certainly share. I'll make sure to have all the covers ready to go before the cases arrive at everyone's door. It is super tedious but the results will be worth it. I can't even tell you how much it drives me nuts to have all my games lined up and there is something slightly different with each. Be it different developer logo sizes on the spine or a series of covers that don't line up. I'm actually improving the quality on quite a few of these as I go too.

That being said, for the reason of consistency i don't want anyone to help. I have 43 completed at this moment and plan to work on this with every spare second i have the next few weeks. I already had one test printed for the case and it fits like a glove. If you really wanted to you could organize your games by developer and all the bottom spine logos would line up. :D

I talked with ShadowFox and we decided to go with the black around the Nintendo logo on the spine.
1: All of Nintendo's advertisements for the NES had it this way or a transparent color (white came around with SNES/N64).
2: It will help differentiate them to UGC covers. We don't want anyone printing out the wrong sized cover do we.
3: It looks GREAT ;D

You guys can trust me i'll make them as close to perfect as possible right? :P

(i was still messing with Imandix to get a correctly sized preview so things may be a bit off)

TDIRunner:
That looks awesome. :o
