You probably have a different case than the one shown in the thread. The spine on these are ~15.5mm and a standard width DVD case is 14mm. The one you are describing sounds much much thicker

Yeah I just think it's a similar product. It has a clear sleeve and removable disc holders like these do. I think I tossed it when I realized I couldnt buy such cases in bulk though.  :-\

Good move on making this it's own thread, Shenske. I am SO EXCITED to see the forum's support for this new casing format!! I'm going to finish my UGC collection first, and then I'm definitely going to get to work on some of these!

Finally, I can say goodbye to jewel cases!! :D

Definitely want to use these for my turbografx 16 covers, because I love the design of Ektophase's template but wasnt too crazy about dvd cases for them, they weren't meant for the hucards and they just feel wrong to me. This is a genius idea, thanks Shenske! ;D

This man is a genius!! THIS IS A GREAT IDEA. Especially for people who want uniformity with their TurboGraphx games right next to their TurboGraphx CD games! Shenske, What would you say to developing a template for PS1, Dreamcast, and also TG16/TGCD? I can't think of anything else that would be appropriate for discs. Maybe Famicom Disks as well?

Dreamcast and PS1 will be my first priority making templates with the new cases.  Once i have the dimensions and template in place i'll leave it up to irvgotti452 ektophase to convert his TurboGrafX template over. I would prefer him to handle it since he made the dvd template you are referring to and we love so much.

Famicom Disk System? ... ehh, i'd prefer to keep them in the same style case as the NES carts. It'll look better on the shelf that way.

I still seem to remember Ektophase did come up with the Turbografx color coded template didn't he?
