What about color Blu Ray cases in the US? I want some silver for the rest of the Xmen movies to match Apocalypse. Or other colors I've seen movies in: red, green, black, etc.

Anyone know of any other places to get DS cases with a GBA slot outside of CustomGameCases and GenesysDTP? The latter has insane shipping costs to where I live and I'm holding off on the former solely 'cause I'm trying to see if I can find a reliable place that still sells actual DS cases rather than custom made ones.

Don't be afraid to go with Custom Game Cases.
Creator is member here and quality of them matches if not exceeds the original ones.

As for orinals ebay or some other online place is probably your best bet.

Oh, I’m not concerned over the quality of the Custom Game Cases ones. I’m just nitpicky and I know I’ll want consistency across my game boxes so I wanted to see if there was any place still reliably selling the GBA slotted DS cases before committing to a specific custom case. I’m also not sure how I feel about the apparent branding on the inside of the CGC cases.

True that deep in one's head one knows the cases are not official when using Custom Game Cases, but on shelf you cannot tell the difference.
And logo only shows when you open the case... and if it really bugs you you can scratch it away or use some suitable solvent to wipe it away (nail polish remover should eat plastic ;)).
Besides they are tailor made to hold GB and GBC games that official ones won't without ugly modification.

^ Aren't those the ones that are black instead of charcoal gray and smell funny?

As someone with a mix of CGC and official DS/GBA cases on the same shelf, just go CGC. They are literally indistinguishable from each other until you open them up. Plus you won't have to deal with people jacking up the prices of the cases because they are genuine cases from Nintendo.

Yea I have all my GB, GBC, GBA, Neo geo pocket color, Lynx, and Gamegear games in these cases and love it.
I only had to mod the cases for gamegear games.
Just order 5 of them and test them out.

Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."
