I have these games with no cases:

GB
GBC
GBA
DS

I'm assuming this website has covers for all of these games (within reason) that are sized to fit a nintendo DS case, correct? So I should buy cheap nintendo DS cases and take the cover out of them and print new ones and put those in instead (and follow the guides for modifying the DS cases to fit GB or GBA games). Am I right here or do I need to know any other details? THanks guys

For: GB, GBC & GBA

US DS case sized cases that are designed to hold GB, GBC and GBA carts:

Quality is as good as real Ninbtendo cases.

For DS get Nintendo's US DS cases.

I wish he'd combine shipping costs. For example, I want to get 10 cases so I have to order 5 + 5 and pay for shipping twice. I just need 8 cases and I'm cool with buying 10 just in case but I don't need 25.

Ugh. It's hard when there aren't a lot of options out there. It's nice that these things have been made though.

Buy 25 cases. You'll get more games, trust me  :)

Especially if you have the cases, you could also PM Shadowfox here, he treats the members here pretty good so he might work something out for you.

I'll think about it. I don't know the guy.

How is he doing anyway with this business venture? Did he make his money back (I assume he put in some money trying to create his prototypes and all that)?

When I ordered my cases I only needed about 30, but I ordered 100 anyway.  Now I'm already getting ready to order another 100.  Trust me, you will use the extras eventually.   ;)
Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

Can you fit manuals in there too?

Yes Shadow fox cases have been designed so that even the biggest GB/GBC/GBA manuals fit.
