You know? Those little flapping things they used to hang the games on store racks? I do. It just looks cleaner on the shelf imo.

I don't, but I don't really care if I get a copy of a game that has them cut off. They serve no purpose in my eyes

Any time I buy a Genesis game, it's already been done for me.
Re: Do you cut the tabs off your Genesis cases?
Hell, like flamepanther said, in most cases they're already gone, so I'm usually surprised to see them there at all.
I don't mind them either way though.

I do, but I actually like for them to be there when I buy a game since that means it will likely be in better condition. The tabs look rather ridiculous when the boxes are stored on the shelf. I do not resell my games so nobody can bitch. Duplicate games I come across that I do resell I keep everything perfectly intact and let the buyer decide what to do.

After reading the above linked thread, I've acquired a couple of boxed Genesis games with tabs and I did NOT cut them off. Not sure why though.

I agree with Redifier, helps a bit with weeding out badly worn games. I don't really care that much, don't cut them off. Almost all of my games have it intact. Well most JP games don't have it at all.

Re: Do you cut the tabs off your Genesis cases?
As I noted in the other thread (that I can't really merge because of the poll), I prefer them to be there and leave them on. The game is a little less 'complete' to me without it.
