Hi people. I been around lurking for almost a year now, reading, taking notes and downloading stuff. I´m a graphic and industrial designer. . . long story short: A guys owe´s money from some work I did for him and offered to do some plastic molding for me, casted in iron. I have access to a 50 ton professional molding machine and some recycled ABS (plastic). . . I´m thinking . . . BOXES for my collection of NES games, and maybe start a bussiness out of it. What I´m asking from you guys, specially from those with large collections is this: - Cool features? What would you like to have on said boxes? Be crazy. Worst case scenario: Kryptonite is bad for you, Superman. - The biggest manual/booklet size (Metric system please !) you own. One of the things that drives me insane from UCG is that I cannot have the manual along with my game ! Some manuals (specially SNES) are a few MM long ! So, I have to storage them someplace else ! Thanks for your time ! and whoever owns this . . . GREAT JOB ! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK ! p.s. Check my gaming channel (is in spanish) just for fun ! www.youtube.com/juegamecolombia Jacob (jueGAME) from Colombia. Take care. |

Hate to break it to ya, but Custom Game Cases has a HUGE head start on ya. I think it would be hard to compete with him at this point. That said, the Saturn/Sega CD/PS1 longbox cases would be killer. They'd also cost an arm & leg to produce though (a number of us have looked into it already. I'm an Industrial Designer as well :P) |

They tracked down the patent and already have it in motion. I believe they said they are going to be sold in packs of 5 for $25.

This is great. If only someone with the know-how and cash could do the same for the PAL Ps1 case for a price <£1 <1€ with a 50% Margin they would make a Killing in Europe. |
