Sorry for steering this conversation away from GBA and to Game Boy cartridges in general, but does this card pocket system work for original Game Boy and GBC carts, and could it also work for Neo Geo Pocket Color games when not in use?

Sure, provided you buy big enough card pockets. It's kind of a tight fit. NGPC cartridges are smaller, so they'll probably fit no problem.


Check out Broodstars game boy thread, I think he has pictures of his games stored that way.

I can't tell from that image, but are those shelves level or slightly tilted to keep the golf balls (or in this case game cartridges) from falling over?

And where are you buying them from, because that looks snazzy.
The shelves are level. They each have a little divet drilled in them to keep the golf ball from rolling out, but that has no effect on GBA cartridges.

I bought mine at Goodwill because I am a shameless cheapskate.

Oh wow, that's awesome. I think I'll do that, so I can have a home for my NGPC games.

Here's the thread for anyone else interested in seeing it:

I LOVE the binder idea. Clever, cost effective, and practical.

Sorry, I would've linked to all the threads I've mentioned here, but I'm at work and can't spend too long looking at the forum :lol:

I do the trading card binder page thing myself. GB/GBC games fit perfectly. They're also naturally good for loose TG16 HuCards.

I love that golf ball case idea. Might keep an eye out for those.

So am I the only one who keeps loose GBA games in DS cases? 8)

Only problem is Drill Dozer, as it's an oversized cart.

Someone suggested TheCoverProject, those covers are designed for DS cases.

That is brilliant! Then you can get a cassette tower from a second hand store and have them all on display cheaply.
