In case anyone in USA was wondering where to get DS cases with the GBA slot, I found a nifty site with some pretty decent prices.

http://www.supermediastore.com/product/u/supermediastore-standard-size-nintendo-single-black-ds-case-50pk

Felt like the prices on other media cases were pretty good too.

There's a reason they're so cheap.  :-\

Let's just say I mistakenly bought some from them.

Those have been posted many times before.  I use them. They're cheap, but I don't feel bad cutting them up, and I put a wide variety of items in them, so they're a good option for me. They get the job done, even if they do smell like a Sharpie :P

Dan, if you've still got a box or more, then I'll gladly pay ya for em. I need some more about now anyway.

I'm still gonna use them, it's just that next time I need some I'll go a different route. You can't even put a GBA game inside of it without having to modify something.

This push button hub design prevents bending and scratching of your precious Nintendo DS discs.

Well poop. I just now noticed the reviews complaining about the GBA slot. I am trying to buy some but only wanting about 10 for gba. I'll buy probably 5 or so for my DS games. Does anyone have a recommendation for GBA games at the moment? If the modification isn't really a big deal, I may not care to just get these.

An Xacto or box cutter will do it in a snap as well. I have a pic uploaded to my Photobucket. I'll try and find it when I'm at my computer again.

1" = approx 25mm so a little smaller?

Actually 1 inch equals 25.4 mm, or about 311 pixels.

Do you not understand the word approximately?

Also, pixel count is relative to resolution, not MM or In measurements.

We use 300 DPI resolution so 311 pixels is correct.

My point is that you can't simply use pixel count as a measurement.  It's relative.   Cases aren't measured in pixels ;)
