Long man has wondered "just how the hell do you do you store Tengen NES manuals?". They are so oddly shaped, it seems there is nothing that can be done. What a headache, but no longer! I had a revelation of shocking magnitude that solves this age old woe.

As you can see I've got mine nearly filled to capacity, just need a few more! Well, with any luck Tengen will make some new NES games to solve this minor problem. There is room for 3 rows if the manuals lay flat, or they can go upright, but then you'd have the remove the lid. But why would you want to remove the lid? That is half of this box's magic..

Unfortunately the mystery of how to get one of these boxes without exposing yourself to the residual effects Hot Pockets may never be solved.

Well, it's possible he's using them for something other than eating them.
Don't let your imagination wander too far with that one.
Surely you'd store them in the Tengen NES box itself?

I can't say that had ever occurred to me. Hrm.. Perhaps I will have to rethink this all.
In other news I have also discovered that a Neo Geo AES game case holds 2 Hot Pockets quite well. What are the odds of this being a mere coincidence? I'm beginning to think there is a conspiracy at work here.

Hot Pockets are better than any English food I've ever had. Hmm. ;)

There is the vegetarian Hot Pocket for those of us who don't want to eat meat but still would like diarrhea.

"Yeah, I have an idea. Why don't we fill a Pop-Tart with nasty meat?" Good ol' Jim Gaffigan. His jokes were all I could think about while reading this thread.

Didn't know storing Tengen manuals were hard, I also don't have Tengen NES games but this thread was amusing.

I second the motion.
At least a Neo-Geo case is capable of containing the evil that is the Ham(gorf!) & Cheese variety Hot Pocket. God Speed Neo-Geo, god speed!
hey....
i like the pep hotpockets....

I didn't know Tengen manuals were a different size than regular Nes manuals. My lone Tengen game is Tetris but because it's factory sealed I've never been able to check out the manual size.

I was honestly feeling terribly down until I read this thread. Thank you savageone for bringing a smile to my face :)

Not bad, almost right.
Now put those funny food items from the Neo Geo AES game case back in the Hot Pockets box, and store the Tengen NES manuals in the Neo Geo AES game case. There, that wasn't so difficult now, was it?
Glad to be of help.

Haggis?! A disgusting food convention that belongs north of the english border! ;)
