Game Cases 3D Printing?

[Thomas Harris]

Hi Everyone!! new here, I've been looking everywhere for a way to create game cases but I don't see any information, I don't live in the US so is quite expensive to get those cases cheaper than the actual games, I was wondering if any of these are made with 3D Printing or if that is not possible, there is a 3D Printing place here where they can even design them but I don't know how to make it or even what material to use for the sleeves, does anyone know about it here?

Thanks

3D printing is not a way to produce production parts. Even if there were a printed part option out there, it would be mondo pricey.  Printing parts is slow and expensive (compared to an injection-molded part).

Not quite there on the technology. One day, you will be able to pop out a case quicker than the artwork. Thats my dream anyway lol.

And maybe someday the art work can be printed on to the case while printing the case.

Now your just speaking crazy talk. Can't wait to see how much those ink cartridges cost.

Maybe no ink needed it just prints the front @300dpi blending plastic like we now blend the inks...

Heck, I'd be happy with having a decent "etched" look for some covers..  What would be cooler that being able to FEEL the artwork?

OK!

Give me few decades, maybe 4, and I'll see what I can do.

Haha! KICKSTART IT! That way you'll have the dough to throw at it! And buy yourself a bulletproof vest for when you present this idea to a printer manufacturer

While we are on this subject there are plans on the net for a nes case if any of you millionaires want to try it.

Like as in a UGC-style NES case?
