If you keep your games in a cd wallet, what do you do with..

...the manuals?


I just got a ps2, but I know I don't have room for ps2 games which I know I'm going to start picking up in bulk from now on.

So I though about just keeping all my (soon to be purchased) ps2 games in a CD wallet, but I don't know what to do with the manuals, which I do read when I'm playing through a game.

Anyone got a solution for storing manuals?

I generally don't store my games in sleeves, because I'll keep the boxes anyway, and it's the same storage space. But, the CD sleeves I do have came with a manual book, so I could store them there.

Just reading about someone wanting to keep games in sleeves makes me cringe.

If you go through with this plan I would keep the manuals in a folder of some kind.

Its not like I'm going to be throwing the cases away, they'll be kept under a bed or in the attic.

Its just I wont have room for them to be on shelves when there's more than 20.

Just get a Rubbermaid container to put them in. You can usually get small ones at dollar stores that would be a perfect size. I use plastic containers for storing lots of different game related items.

I have my ps2 games in sleeve and I'll just leave the manuals in the box they correspond in.

i did that before and really regretted it. I took all my Dreamcast games and put them in CD wallet and place the the Booklets inside the pouches and eventually just got crush. Its not too much ripped and wear but just made it look warn. Anways i dont do that anymore and just rather leave it the way it is. Inside the CD Jewel.

I used to do this for the first xbox.
The cd wallet I had was for Dvds, each page had a space for the cd and on the other page there was room for a Manual/booklet. If you can find a wallet like that it'd make things easier.

I used to keep my CDs in sleeve cases and they all got ruined. It took a while, but what happened was the dust, dirt etc that settled in the sleeves over time scratched all my CDs. All the scratches were on the bottom where the dust and stuff settled on the bottom of the sleeve. I used to take my CDs everywhere so maybe that had something to do with it, but it was zippered shut when not in use. Just a warning of what happened to me.
