Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

No problem.  I also found Aladin, but it's sealed and it will probably stay that way.  Besides, I saw that we have the scan on the first page anyway. 

Hopefully within the next month or two I can try to scan some of the boxes I was talking about the other day.  It doesn't seem like we are in a big hurry since it will be some time before Shadowfox can get to these cases.  But hopefully we will be ready when that day comes.

True, when that day comes i think we'll have a good quantity of scans available  ;) ;D

I know it's been discussed already, but I'm too lazy to look for the conversation.  Do you remember where the Game Gear cases fell on the priority list?  Obviously he is working on NES right now, and it seems that Genesis would be next since it was a close call between the two.  But I don't remember what could potentially be next.  Obviously it could change, but I'm just curious.

Not quite sure, but I think the order goes:
- Game Boy universal (done)
- NES (almost done)
- Genesis replica
- SNES
- N64
- Genesis universal
- Gama Gear
- Saturn replica
- Sega CD replica

Ones I would like:
- Saturn DVD-like.
- Sega CD DVD-like.
- PS1 DVD style short box with manual clip, in 3 variants: 1 disc (no tray needed), 2-3 disc (1 tray attachment clips) and 4-5 disc (2 tray attachment clips). there is one good such case exsisting for one disc, it came with European PS2 internet browser disc (made by Amaray).

well if that's the order then Game Gear cases are not to far from being made, because Snes and N64 comes from the same case as the Nes so there's a part of the job done. ::)

Yep and Genesis universal is modification of Genesis replica (just different cart holder to hold odd carts).
Oh and missing from list is Famicom case, which maybe same as Genesis universal, but ability to hold all famicom manuals even those mini ones.

I know I'm probably in the minority, but for me, SNES, and N64 should be a lower priority because UGCs hold them very well.  Don't get me wrong, I would love a more specific case that holds the game snugly along with the manual, but I would rather focus on games that don't have a good storage method at the moment.  

Honestly, I would have no problem modifying Shadowfox's Game Boy cases to fit Game Gear, but there just aren't very many GG covers that fit those cases.  And I'm sure that most people dont' want to bother making covers for those cases when we will eventually have a proper GG case.

I guess I just have to be patient.   ;D

Riviera used to stock that amaray ps1 case in black,I bought a box of them.  Haven't found another supplier since riviera stopped selling them.

When you say "DVD like" do you mean smaller than the jewel case long boxes?  Because I'm hoping he comes up with some type of case that could sit next to an original Sega jewel case long box and it would be difficult to tell the difference.  I love the Sega long boxes and I'm trying to find spare cases so that all of my CD and Saturn games can be in the original cases, but damn if it isn't difficult to do so these days.

Let me know what you guys think of this.  I put together a list of Game Gear games by region (North America, Europe, Japan and Brazil).  The list is in Excel.  The first tab is a list of every game and which region it was released in.  The remaining tabs list each game for the specific region.  I BELIEVE I have the names of the games correct for each region (i.e. some games have different names depending on where they were released).  I was thinking we could use this to check off which scans we have. 

If you are familiar with Excel, you can also use the filters to sort each tab as needed.  Let me know if this is helpful or if you have questions.  I'm confident that this list is 95% accurate, but I'm sure there are a few errors.

Main problem with UGC is that the Manuals don't fit.

Didn'i know that, they were 1 disc only right?
So no good for 2-disc (GTA2), 3-disc (FF7), 4-disc (FF8) or 5-disc (Myst) games.
Did those have manual clips?

I mean cases that look like (and are quality of) DVD-cases but longer so they fit the manuals.
