these look awesome.

for the SFIV spine maybe having a white/cream background and a brush stroke type of font to keep in line with the game style?

Where did you get these standees from and how are they called?

I've been looking for something similar for ages to showcase my handhelds in my display cabinet but never found anything worthwhile.

This.

All it is is some AC Ventilation metal I got from my local Home Depot. It's easy to bend, and easy to cut with just a pair of scissors.

Oh its far from dead, I've just been so busy i may drown in all the stuff i have to do  :(

I have scans from the Nintendo DSi, Gameboy Color, wii classic controller, PS2 Memory Card and a bunch of Game & Watch covers to convert over. I just simply lack the time at the moment.

I completely understand!  I just enjoy seeing the thread on the "Recent Threads" area of the front page!

So I figured I'd bump it up a little :P

Also, could you upload the DS Lite covers to your box.net account?  I'm really eager to print one for my ds lite :) (and since I just got my next shipment of UGC's!)

Those look awesome printed out!!  Now, only to get some PSP cases =P

Bold are covers I personally would like


How about covers for Video Cables?  
     GameCube / SNES / N64 Video Cable
     PS1/PS2/PS3 Video Cable
     Genesis RF Adaptor
     Genesis Composite Cable
     HDMI Cable


Memory Cards (PS2/GameCube/DVD Cases)
     GameCube (already done)
     PS1
     PS2


Just throwing this one out there.....
    Club Nintendo Points (I'm saving for future, possibly better/cooler rewards down the road)
       - Saving so that the points don't expire
       - Wishing to save in a different case to know which hasnt been used


Video System Accessories
       Nyko Wireless Multiplayer Kit for PlayStation 2
                                                                                                  

       Xbox DDR Wireless Controller Plug-In

Shoothimnow, I must admit that I just laughed pretty hard when you mentioned the club nintendo points, but then I realized I would have a use for that as well. lmao.

personally I would LOVE to get all of my portables covered up before doing anything else.  Covering my portables would give me a whole drawer of empty space! :P

I'm going to make a quick list of what cases I would need to cover up my portables, so if anyone has boxes, you know where to scan them ;)

Gameboy - Original (We can leave this for later since it doesn't fit all too nicely in the UGC)
Gameboy Pocket - Black
Gameboy Color - Strawberry, Grape, Kiwi, Dandelion, Teal, Atomic Purple, Pokemon Edition, and Tommy Hilfiger Edition
Gameboy Advance - Arctic, Indigo
Gameboy Advance SP - Flame Red, Platinum
Gameboy Micro - Famicom Edition, Black
Nintendo DS (Phat) - Silver
Nintendo DS Lite - Crimson/Black, Onyx Black, Polar White
Nintendo DSi - Matte Blue

Unfortunately, the only boxes I MAY have are for the DS line that I have.  I'll try to check sometime today for the boxes and try to scan them in.  What DPI should I scan them in at? (I'm an utter noob at scanning)

Do you mean the piece of paper w/ ~16 digit code that comes with the games?  ... Those expire after a while if you don't enter them in to nintendo's website
