Anyone know a reliable place I can buy 3DS Cases in bulks? Nintendo's 5 packs are "Available for backorder"

Does anyone know where I can buy more at once on a reliable site?

Are you going to use them for GB Games?  Or just DS / 3DS games?  Meritline sells them in bulk, but the Card Slot is right in the middle of the case, so original GB games won't fit. :(

Could you flip the cart sideways and fit it? or would you have to cut it like a normal DS case?

So are you modifying the 3DS cases to fit the GB carts? Why wouldn't you just buy the gameboy cases? I know this is more than likely coming off odd/ wrong, because I'm the guy who sells them (LOL) but is there a reason you prefer the 3DS cases over the Gameboy cases? (Color? Thickness? Bla, bla, bla)  :)

Hi shadowfox! I have absolutely nothing against your product, the only reasons I like the 3DS case is because, well yes. The thickness and I like having them all white cases. I want all my handhelds (GB/GBC/GBA/DS/3DS) to all have exactly the same case.

If you did make 3DS like cases...I would go in debt for that. Lol
I'm already going to be buying your NES cases you're making though. :)

LOL I have thought about white cases.... and yes, if these 3DS cases are that hard to attain I will be looking into making them. :)

They actually really are hard to find.
Well, sort of.
I just bought a 50 pack of a 3rd party's 3DS case, but of course I'll need more than 50.
and Nintendo won't do bulk. You can only buy a 1 pack or a 5 pack. The 5 packs have been on back order for a month now and you can only buy 5 cases at a time. It's just the worst.

I don't know how busy you are with the NES case, but definitely look into making your own 3DS cases. I would totally buy
