How to best case a Virtual Boy collection?

[travistouchdown]

So I recently started gaming and collecting for Virtual Boy.

The covers on TCP seem to be the size of the original gameboy or 3ds cases (as found on customgamecases.com) but I don't think the large virtual boy cartridges would fit in there? 

After dremeling out a ton of UGC's to fit my Atari 5200 carts, I can say i'm not really keep to do that again with gameboy cases.   I'm thinking of casing my Virtual boy games and manuals in UGC's and trying to get the according art.

How would you case a VB collection?  Am I missing something?

Thanks!

I don't own a Virtual Boy, but it seems to me that UGCs would be way too big, and waste a lot of space.  I would stick with the DS cases (NOT 3DS cases) and modify them.  Modifying cases can suck, but the VB library isn't that large, so it shouldn't be too time consuming.  Plus, the artwork is ready to go.

I know that a few people have bought red DS cases for their VB collection.  I think that would look pretty cool on the shelf.

Good points all around.  Guess it's time to fire up the old dremel...

Anyone know of a website that sells Red DS cases in 20 packs?

You might be able to find cheaper on eBay.

Ha!  Very cool.  No luck on ebay and buying 15 copies of Mario Cart DS doesn't seem very cost effective...lol.  Thanks again!

I may just go ahead and buy/make up all the cases for when I eventually collect VB. Post some pictures when you're done!
