Onion game Cases

[Seymor Onion]

I'm curious also about the kickstarter. Perhaps a little more detail on how that would go down?  I'm dying to case my NES, N64, and SNES carts soon and would love gold cases for my link to the past, and nes zeldas when I get them.

I know it's a random idea, but any chance of there being a pokemon stadium case that could hold 2 transfer paks and the game? I'm not too crazy on modding 3 cases together... seems like too much of a hassle in my opinion.

I'd also love to see some gameboy / gameboy color cases come out in DS size.  It seems that all the DS cases I get are flimsy and tend to snap.

For X amount of donation, you'll get X number of Gold Game Cases. Probably 5.
Color Substitutions (Solid Gold, Transparent Gold, Black, Clear) will be allowed.
Case-Cart-Type Substitutions NES, SNES (USA/CAN/MEX), SFC/SNES (JP/EU), and N64 will also be allowed.
Although, it would be best to stick with the Gold Cases (Clear or Solid), because you all could resell extras on eBay for a premium, since that color option will be a limited run, for at least one year.

I have no plans to make a Specialty Case for Pokemon Stadium, at least, not until I get all of the other standard cases made.
Ya might want to ask wiggy if he can hook you up with a pre-modded case for some $, if you don't want to make one yourself.

My GameBoy, GameBoy Color and GameBoy Advance Game Cases will have the same outer dimensions as a nDS Game Case,
except for the thicker cases for games with Rumble, motion sensors, or the Cheat Device Cases.
Those will be a bit thicker, but have standard Height and Width.

By the way, what is the height of the most common size of European SNES Game Manuals?
Is it less than 168 millimeters?

Sweet!
They'll fit just fine, then, and I don't need to make any more changes for that case design.
Just wanted to make sure before I finalized the SFC (J)/SNES (EU) Case Design.

I'm running a bit late with my case designs (Life Happens, so they say) but I should have the second-to-last case design (n64 Cart & Controller Pak) finalized today.
It will support all 3 heights of Controller Paks that were posted in the other thread.

I should also be able to finalize the last case design today (NES).
It depends on when the FedEx Guy's gonna get here with some plastic sheet samples.
Dude's slated to come out today, but they're not giving me a specific time for when to expect em'.
I need to do some experiments with the plastic sheets, so I can pick the best one for the Small Manual Hatch/door.

I can haz do that for ya

♫ Which one of these is not like the other... ♫

[zygmuray]

Starfox 64... Its label is slightly lower than the rest.

[CommunistGamer]

pokemon snap?

It's too much of a pain in the arse it is to try and keep every cover lined up perfectly.  They shift a bit every time I open one, so I don't even try.

How'd you make that case?
What does the Pokemon Stadium case look like on the inside? Curious.

Hello Mr. Onion

Just a note on your NES cases. Do you have a price point yet? (say for a case of 100). Also, the manufacture that owns the mold for the UGC case is releasing a NES version of that case in the fall.

Also, is anyone interested in a foam insert for the UGC case that would allow you to place GameBoy,Gameboy Color, Game Gear and Game Boy Advance carts securly in the case? I have priced these to use in my retail store since i really hate those cheapy DS knock off cases. If there is interest then i would be willing to fund a project to make them.

I'm new hear and this was my first post. I have been using the artwork here for about six months for my retail store as it looks much nicer to display carts in these cases then just placing them on the shelf.

Curious, do you sell the cases with the games? A store near me sells CD based games in cases from here.
If you want, OEM 3DS cases hold games with no modification, I started a topic here wit ha new template and a bunch of covers made. You can only buy 30 at a time from Nintendo, but they also hold manuals.
I would like inserts to hold Game Gear games as well, until cases get made. cut foam should not be too expensive.

Seymor also plans on making DS sized cases for handheld games.

Also, Seymor, I'm should be sending you a ruff draft of some mock-up box art for use in product images. I got some more character designs almost finalized.

If Seymour is using a higher quality plastic for the insert sleeve then I definitely know where i'll be buying my cases from...

We do offer the cases to our customers. We sell the case and artwork for $4.99 with or without purchase of the game. Since we print using our color laser and we user a heavy gloss stock, i think $4.99 is reasonable.

The 3DS cases don't hold GBA games though. That is what i really need.

I want to get the foam inserts for the UGC cases but even if i buy by the 100s the costs is about $1.00 each. If enough people wanted some i would try and get more and just wholesale them out at cost, since i would be benefiting from the lower cost per piece. I think i need to order about 1000 of them to be a more affordable price. I was thinking of buying and just selling them on ebay but don't want to be stuck with them.

+1.  That, and Seymor's are going to have a spot to hold the manual (not sure if he's decided on clips or a sleeve yet).  This is a deal breaker for me since I'm a CI collector.

Interesting that they're going to start an NES mold, though.  Wonder what prompted that?
