How to store NES, SNES and N64 games?

Post by deathclaw »

Hi guys. I saw this article about storing GB and GBA games http://www.racketboy.com/forum/viewtopi ... &sk=t&sd=a
and I found this idea

It looks simply awesome!

Now, do you have any idea how to store cartridges for consoles, mainly NES, SNES and N64, since they obviously do not fit into a DS case? Something, so I could print a cover on it and all my games would be unified, just like the GBA/GB games....Also, I am not going to pay a lot of money just for the cases themselves.

The best idea I could think of was to store this games in old VHS boxes...My main concern is that they are really thick, so it would not look so nice on a shelf....But unless I find a better solution, I am going to use this in the future.

Make sure you get ones that are Full Sleave or else you won't be able to put your covers in.

What is the exact difference between "full sleeve" and "no sleeve" ? :mrgreen:

Full sleeve is like a dvd case. Meaning there is a sleeve outside of the case for case art. No sleeve is simply that, no sleeve.

I have yet to invest in them, but once I make enough spines that I like and shelving, Ill be buying them.

It's a little different than other solutions but you can store and display loose Genesis games on Audio Cassette racks.

Like these:

Or, if you are low on room, you can use drawers. You can't display them, but until I get more room doing this.

Thanks, looks like a neat idea, though I wish the picture were bigger :)
