OMGOMG 3DS CASES REVEALED!!!!
TheGreatGonZo:
I really hate this Eco case crap ... IMO it is more about saving weight on the boat from China then it is about the enviroment....
sheep2001:
less weight means less fuel to transport which is better for the environment.
less plastic, means less emissions in production which is better for the environment.
needs the whole industry to buy in or it's pointless. i worked for a wine company which tried to move to lightweight glass on a number of lines - the bottles felt cheaper and sales plumetted. all very well being ground breaking and trying to be green, but not sustainable as a business if product looks/feels cheap and sales suffer. at least if they do it from the start with these cases, people wont complain about any change later on.

I can guarantee you that any major corporation's "eco efforts" are more about profit than a genuine interest in the environment.
tiktektak:
Sheep is right though. Less plastic is always a good thing actually cause plastic is one of the worst things considering environment friendliness.
Still apple is right too. The companies may marketing it as green cases but their true intentions are far from being ECO.
If you combine both it is good for our environment after all no matter what the intentions were. ;)
I still would like it better if the cases just were thinner....
