There's a Genesis one as well, as I sold one to JMustang last year. :mrgreen:

I had an issue with water leaking a few months ago and I have all of my consoles in shoe boxes so that they stack. Something that's hard plastic that fits the console, cords, and maybe a controller or two would be great.

Anything like that or am I pipe dreaming?

I have one of these:

Is that the kind of thing you're talking about? This particular one is pretty cool, though it says Nintendo, it also has slots for an Atari 2600/7800 or Master System. And it has a small opening in the back that you can feed the cords through, so you can actually have everything set up and just put the lid on it so your games/system won't get dusty. It might not be the cheapest route, I'm not sure how much these things go for. I got lucky and found mine in the box at a yard sale for $5. Unfortunately I don't really have the space to actually use it though. :(


Yeah, something like that would be perfect. Is there anyone current who makes something similar with like a hard plastic?

Thanks.

I have the Atari organizer but I've got too many damn 2600 games for it.

Anyway blast your consoles with a can of compressed air or vacuum once in a while and just dust them normally the rest of the time.
