Right now I just keep them in clear plastic universal game cases I bought off of eBay. One of these days I'm going to get around to making actual inserts for them. Seriously though, anyone who stores these little treasures out in the open and exposed to the elements is fucking retarded.

Does anybody know what size in pixels inserts for the regular universal plastic cases are? I want to print/cut some of my own but I have no idea how big to make them and trial and error means a lot of wasted ink and paper.

It isn't like PS3 cases are much of an improvement, but the originals weren't destroyed to make those.

Now, if those were longboxes, that was be a huge step up, those things are stylish and fancy. Back in 1996 I was jealous as fuck I didn't have a system that played those awesome looking games. Then they started selling them in jewel cases and I forgot that Playstation games ever looked cool.

>shelf

I wish. I am stuck using boxes right now. Someday when I can actually afford to move into a house of my own I am going to have an actual gaming room with a shelf. Until then, I am stuck stashing it all under my bed and in my closet.

Regardless, I am a big fan of Universal Game Cases. They're cheap, look good enough, and there is an absolute wealth of cover designs available for them. Even though I still have the boxes for a lot of these games, I keep the carts in universal game cases to save the boxes from wear and tear since those cardboard end flaps don't hold up very well to repeated opening and closing. Nintendo designed them to be thrown out and recycled, which is why they are so damn rare.
