I like having the individual cases because it lets you show off the collection more. If you've just got a wallet you don't get the same impact.

Yup and along with the 5 Binders they gave me 2 GBA System Folios, 2 Game Boxes (that black box next to the Game Folio), and the coolest freebie ever a Zelda Wind Waker Bobblehead.

Also for those who bother to look at my Wii games in that pic Ultimate Shooter Championship Rocks! 3 awesome SHMUPS (Chaos Field, Kaorus, and Radilgy/AKA Radrugy/AKA Radio Allergy) For the cool price of $19.99

Well I had found one of those old Store 64 cataligs that came with most 64 systems. Curiosity getting the better of me I called to see if the number was still active and/or if they had any old backstock. After explaining this to the customer service rep. she informed me that they can't sell to individuals anymore, but If she saw any odds or ends that were no longer in prod. lying around she would box them up and send them my way. And that's how I got a bunch of freebies from Nintendo.

The coolest thing though is that bobblehead is No. 215 out of 500 produced exclusively for the press at SPACEWORLD 2001 where WInd Waker debuted. It even came with a nice certificate of authenticity and everything.

The bobblehead was rereleased as a Gamestop Management gift in 2003.

To be on topic - I know alot of people that just use those 3x3 card sleeves that are stored in a binder. With alittle stretching they hold Gameboy carts just fine. Not the best solution, but one none the less. Personally I store all my Gameboy stuff in a box with my Super Gameboys. GBA games are in a small box with DS games.

Maybe it was reprinted or something?

Anyway, My GB/GBA games go in those game binders, and each system gets either its own folio or game box.
