Hi There,
first of all i've got to say i did not know to which thread i should reply to share the following covers. So i decided to start a new thread - please let me know if there is an existing one that i should use.

Since i am a friend of organized shelves and drawers i was always looking for a good way to store my handhelds and controllers (instead of having a mess of cables inside the drawers).

I know some of you use modified UGC's - but for me the effort to modify them is too high. I wanted something that i could simply "buy and use". I ended up using different sizes of the "Amaray Megapack" DVD cases (don't know if they are the same like "double wide cases").

I live in Germany so i went for DIN A4 paper size - please remember this when you like to print them. For the very wide Boxes that could hold 24 dvds i was forced to create a separate front and back cover - Once printed i insert them in the cases and i can say there is no problem - both parts stay in place.

Wel,l enough talk - here are the first ones (Today i upload only some of the one-piece covers - tomorrow the bigger ones will follow). I'm curious about your opinion!

Hey sheep! Thank you! I'm glad that somebody else but me has use for them.

Following you will find the next covers. Most of them are extra wide covers for the 24-DVD Megapacks that consist of two separate parts. Please note that i left the front a bit broadened for that it reaches to the back of the box.

I also found some DVD sized covers that i forgot about - here they are (Memory Cards).

Nintendo GameCube Memory Card 251 (DVD Case, Multilanguage, PAL)


Nintendo GameCube Memory Card 59 (DVD Case, Multilanguage, PAL)


Nintendo GameCube / GBA Advance Cable (12 DVD Megapack, PAL, Custom)


PlayStation 2 Memory Card black (DVD Case, Multilanguage, PAL)


PlayStation 2 Memory Card green (DVD Case, Multilanguage, PAL)

Hey RecOne, greetings from Germany!
Very nice covers, I'll definitely use most of them.

Any chance that you create a white Wii Remote and a silver PS2 Memory Card cover?
Keep up the great work!

Best Regards
Deutschland

Hi "Deutschland",
i don't have the boxes for these, but i could try to modify my existing covers.
Once done i will reply to you in this thread.

Instead of playing some NHL 16 matches today i built the cover for the Xbox One S Controller.

Here is a preview:

...and now - i'll go and play a bit. :)

Today i finished the cover for the Mega Drive 3 Button Controller.
Unfortunately i do not have the original box, so i couldn't place all the texts and logos at the proper coordinates.
The only source i had were some pics from eBay (The controller in front is one of my actual controllers).

I made another cover for an accessory today. I know it is basically just a cable and the battery pak that most of the time stays in the controller, but for spares and the cables i want to use the box.

Xbox One: Play & Charge Kit (12 DVD Megapack, PAL, Multilanguage, customized retail)


PlayStation 2 Memory Card silver (DVD Case, Multilanguage, PAL)


Coming up next:

-Game Boy Classic
-PlayStation Vita (first version)
-Wii U Controller (white)

Does anybody have the box for the PlayStation Vita Slim?
Mine came in a boring white OEM box so i need a scan of the retail box.

I'm waiting for some Megapacks to arrive, too. hehe
Did you order them at www.kronenberg24.de?
They also have some game replacement cases (PS2, GameCube, PSvita etc.) very nice!

My Kronenberg-order has arrived last Thursday. :)
Once i have finished the PS Vita and Game Boy Classic cover i will take some pictures, too.

Finally i have finished the German Super Game Boy Cover. I wasn't able to fit the German/PAL Super Game Boy into a UGC, so i decided to switch to a 12 DVD Megapack. Works just fine.

Btw. i didn't forget about the white Wii U Remote + Nunchuck.

I found a really nice Bluetooth controller in shape of a classic SNES Controller last week on Amazon.
Available as NTSC or Famicom/PAL style.
I've connected it to my Retron 5 - but there are also adapters for the original console available.
It looks and feels almost like the original, the buttons feel great and it is wireless! :-D

Still on my to do list:
-Game Boy Classic
-PlayStation Vita (first version)
-Wii U Controller (white)
-GameCube RGB Cable
-GameCube GBA Cable (new version)
-Game Boy Advance Link Cable
-Sega Mega Drive Scart Cable

I've seen a lot of great reviews for 8bitdo controllers. I'm actually about to by the NTSC SNES one myself. They seem to stick with Nintendo accessories but I hope they make the 3 and 6 button genesis controllers eventually.
Snes is Best.
