That is an original UGC case. ;)

You mean the cover that goes into it? same as all UGCs you print from the site.
Maybe tad different but doesn't matter as difference is nothing.

But will it fit SNES or N64 manuals... I believe that's a no go.

try using dvd slim cases for Manuals. I clip the disc retention parts and sand them down and it keeps everything really nice. as a bonus you can edit covers here and put a Manual banner across the top of the spine. This way you can group your manuals together or next to the game.

As a side note. Bagging your manuals is ok, but comic boards are not ok. They will leach the acids from the ink and cause paper to fade and become brittle.

Th artwork for UGC cases will not work, its not wide enough to fit this case, does anyone know if there is a template for this case?

The difference can't be more than a mm.  Either changing the print settings or resizing in either Paint or Photoshop should get you where you need to be.  The size difference shouldn't be enough to stretch the image in a noticeable way.
Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

No, it’s significantly thicker. I’ve got a case of em sitting around still.

In that case, what's the difference in spine thickness between those and a Shadowfox case?

The best thing I've found for manuals, personally, was to change out my UGCs for Shadowfox CGCs. Now every game I have is paired with its manual in the same case and it looks professional.  ;D

Not much. I’ll measure.

If it's close, or within a MM, then that should answer the OP's question of which template to use.

That is just not an option for me as Shadow cases cost almost twice the amount and I started with UGCs, I was just looking a template so I can use that old UGC for manuals
