Acquiring DS Cases

Post by EmperorZelos »

I am curious, does anyone know a good place in europe to get DS cases that can hold GBA games as well? There was one cdsmedia.co.uk but they seem to have gone down. Anyone else know a good source?

Nintendo might actually sell those cases. I know you can buy replacement Wii cases in the American store.

You might have to contact Nintendo Europe to buy them? In the US there's an easy to find order page for replacement cases:

Interesting thing is that these appear to be newer than what was shipped with many DS games as they are missing the AGB holder, and have the reduced plastic on the front cover side. I don't recall any games shipping with these, or perhaps I never purchased any of the later DS titles? :mrgreen:

Yeah later DS releases have the newer cases, my copy of Dragon Quest VI uses one.

Another option would be to buy a bunch of cheap old shovelware games like Barbie's Magical Pony Ride and just use their cases.
