Is this good quality paper for Games?

But it will still be enough size for the games? Sheep, do you have a pic of some of your Satin games?

Yes A4 will fit UGC covers perfectly as long as you set margins to 5mm max.
Will A4 fit the new Shadowfox covers is yet to be answered, but even if they don't UGC sized covers should look good enough in them.

I disagree with that last part. I put a UGC cover into my demo NES case, and I didn't care for it at all. I'll definitely wait until Shenske finishes the conversion of NES covers into the new spine width.
I'm not familiar with A4 paper, but the extra width will definitely fit on legal sized paper (which is good since I stocked up on about 500 sheets worth of my premium matte double sided legal).

Legal is considerably larger than A4.

What are the dimensions of the new shadow fox case?

It's not much bigger. I understand why people might think the extra spine width wouldn't matter because it's so small, but I think it's still noticeable. But either way, we should be able to use the same paper we've already been using.
If I have time tonight, I'll take a picture of my case with a UGC sized cover in it showing what the spine looks like. Maybe Shenske can share one of his re-sized covers (it doesn't matter which one) so I can take a picture of what the spine SHOULD look like.
Einhander:
I was wondering if anyone had glossy paper pics. I've searched the forum and can't say I have found anything. I am assuming that glossy would look a little strong for SNES/GEN games, but perhaps would look pretty good for Dreamcast covers.
