 More small holes seems safer to me than a few big ones

I agree Mick. What puzzles me the most is why the holes are where the disc goes (the whole idea of the case is to PROTECT the disc). The holes should be above and below the disc holder area. Who thought of that design, and how did it ever get approved?


They should have stopped here. I can live with these (both are Viva eco-boxes).


They're not saving anything when you see people post on forums that they buy replacement cases with no holes and then throw the eco ones away. But then that brings us back around to them just doing it for profit like AppleQueso said (how great is it to get the original packaging sale to the disc manufacturer and replacement sale to the consumer?).

I think eco-friendly cases are less of an issue for cartridge based systems like the 3DS as carts can stand up to more abuse to begin with. When I bought Metroid: Other M, I was taken aback by how terrible the case design was that I replaced the case with the case that came with The Conduit, a game I'm not playing anymore. Eco friendly cases are fine, but the wagon wheel design is terrible.

As soon as we get marketing for coverart and cases at Gamestop i'll take some home a whip up a template.  My plan is to have a complete 3DS template ready to go the day the system releases on the 27th of march!  ;D

I wonder if we'll be able to order empty cases from Nintendo that early. ;)

I doubt it but maybe we can be the first site to host the covers! If not, at least the first to have a full template for it  ;D
