Super Nintendo Template with Flaps?
Ownaholic:
Hey everybody!
Brand new here, but I was just wondering if there were any templates for Super Nintendo boxes (NTSC, horizontal) with the flaps included. I have searched the forums and guides high and low, but I haven't been able to find what I'm looking for specifically.
I got a lot of the templates already, but none of them actually included a flat, laid out style with the flaps included. I'm just a little confused as to how one would be able to actually turn any of these templates into a real box without the flaps included in all of the templates.
Thanks so much to anyone willing to help!

thats because... we dont... make... boxes here?
this is retail
This is what we make
and we create them for these cases
===================================
So really, if you are looking to make SNES boxes, you will need to not only find the flaps, but also the missing spine (could duplicate) and the little flaps that go on the side. UGC's are more convenient than cardboard boxes

The thing with UGC is that
a) they are out of stock...
b) they are not cheap enough for people outside the US...
c) they are not universal enough to fit (without modding) NES carts...
But the result is awesome. I don't know why Nintendo didn't use hard plastic cases just like Sega did.

The thing about UGC's are
a) they are amazing
b) UGC's go in and out of stock frequently
c) Our whole website is mainly focused on UGC's, which is another reason why (b) is always out of stock
d) there are alternatives (27mm DVD cases)
e) it takes no more than 30 seconds to cut the plastic out of a case to fit an NES game. I still don't understand why this is a huge issue on why people hate these cases? Once the plastic is cut, the game fits EXTREMELY WELL. If you don't like that "one" NES game inside the case, swap it out with another NES game. Problem solved.
f) They get the job done
Sounds like someone is a little ungrateful and is stating that our whole website is useless due to the fact they cannot get UGC's currently. Granted, it would have a hellofalot nicer if Nintendo used plastic cases, however they didn't. People are now trying to protect their newly acquired games (or vintage games they owned and realized they should be in better protection). If you don't want to spend the money, then your collection won't be too great. We provide an amazing assortment of Video Game scans that can be converted into whatever format you would like. Even if your paint/photoshop skills are not the greatest, you could always stretch them to work inside VHS cases if you really wanted your games covered cheap. $62 Internationally for 100 cases was steep for me, however I love how my collection looks. I understand that people like Arseen cannot get these cases this cheap, that is why he has taken the effort to research so much about 27mm cases for all you PAL people out there.

If you are looking for flaps for your own pursuit, you can always try the Raw Cover Scans link on the top left (in the links menu). There are sure to be some there
