Covers for peripheral equipment?

Yeah, I noticed that my DS doesn't fit. Oh well, I found somebody willing to trade my DS for a 3DO (the 3DO I just bought turned out to be a dud) and considering GameStop would probably only give me $40 (at most) for it, I guess it's time to get rid of it and get a DS Lite.

I can get some boxes from work for some of the newer handheld hardware boxes but they are display boxes so it may not match up perfectly. I'm glad to see everyone really likes this idea but in order to get the ball rolling ... start scanning! ;D
@sheep2001
Yes please do scan in your boxes for GBA, GBAmicro, NDSlite & PSP
@the7k
Umm ... I'm not sure if what you have is a UGC. My NeoGeoPocket Color is too big for the case and will barely close even if i force it shut. And just an FYI the original NDS does fit in the case but just as the GBC it is a bit snug and bulges a bit.
@z0mbiew0lf
Funny you find my handwriting nice, i wrote those very quickly. Please do scan in your boxes for Daxter PSP, black NDS Lite , the Mario Kart NDS Phat and the original GBA (regardless of condition it will get things rolling).
@Paul
Thats a lot of portables! The GBC does fit in the UGC but a little snug ... it bulges a little bit but closes fine. I'd be happy to make some cases for a bunch of those systems if you have the boxes :)
@thedrowningman
Please do scan in your GBC & GG boxes! Even though the UGC can't hold the GG it would still be nice to have the scan on file untill we find a suitable container to hold it in.
Paul:
unfortunately, the only boxes that I have are the more recent ones (DS lite, DSi, possibly DS phat) I think.. I'll have to dig through the attic one of these days.
And for anyone wondering, I got those gameboy colors when they were clearanced at gamestop for $2.50 each, so I figured it would be cool to get one of every color :)
I pulled a UGC out to go through and test how each of my systems fit in the case.

@ Shenske
That's strange. It has things like "CD", "Electronic Arts", "Sega", and "Super Nintendo" written inside of it, so I figured it was a UGC.
Paul:
Alright. So I tested which handhelds of my bunch fit and which didn't. As mentioned, the gargantuan original gameboy had no chance of fitting in a UGC, as well as the DS Phat. But, the rest of them fit nicely (except for the GBC which bulges but still closes). I'm really excited about this project and I hope we can get some boxes scanned in soon! :)
