I used those to store my Magic the Gathering cards, and e-Reader cards seem to be the same size. I'm just not sure that link is the EXACT size you want since I bought them at Comicopia, make sure you measure and stuff to make sure they'll fit. They work really nice, you can fit 9 or 18 cards in each if you put them back to back. Even put them in a binder! I recommend a D ring binder as O or C ring binders can crush pages much more easily. I also recommend you only put a game per page, as having a game sprawl across two pages looks fugly. Since if you have a five card game and another, one will go over, and it keeps going on, and it sucks. Also, if you plan on taking them out repeatedly, don't put two in one slot to face both ways. Harder to get out, I only did that with my collection Magic cards, not ones I used in decks and such. Although most of those were in boxes. Anyways, good luck with the e-Reader collection!

And sorry if the post is a bit incoherent, I'm tired. :)

I haven't actually done a side-by-side but I think they're more or less the exact same size as baseball/sports cards...I should check that out.

They're definitely the same or damn close to it. Pokemon and Magic cards were made by Wizards of the Coast, so they're the same by default. Pokemon had some e-reader and regular hybrid cards, and they can't be more than a millimeter or three different since if you could tell them apart from other cards they'd kind of ruin the card game. And they obviously have to be the same size as other e-reader cards to work.

Basically, Magic = Pokemon = Pokemon-e = e-Reader

Again, the above "incoherent because tired" excuse applies.

The only problem is making sure the pages in the link are exactly the ones I mean. Since Ultra Pro's site really only caters to the differently shaped sports-cards crowd.

I use the Ultra Pro card sleeves. You can go to your local card/comic shop and buy just a couple loose or a box of 100 sheets. The ones I use are on that linked page, The 209D-1. They are the standard size for cards, and some of the best ive seen out in the marketplace.

The sheets are nice if you never play your e-Reader games. I, for one, use this.

It's very portable, pretty solid, and can hold a copy of every e-Reader game out there. It's pretty cheap, too. Just organize your games alphabetically and it should take care of itself.

As I was a CCG player, the pro sleeves or 9 holder album pages are great for e-Reader cards. And I had plenty here to use for my collection :)

I keep mine in my Binder of Doom (tm)--A big yellow Wolverine binder with baseball card sleeves holding my Intellivision, Atari 5200, Jaguar, and Emerson Arcadia 2001 overlays, the aforementioned e-Reader cards, and full-page sleeves holding hand-drawn Metroid maps and other things.

Get yourself a Binder of Doom!

I keep them in the clear plastic "pill boxes" for sports cards. They come in many sizes and are quite handy.

I never open mine. I just hang them on the wall MIB. (mint in bubble)

That's why you keep two copies. One to keep. One to play. I will.

My store sells both that box and the sleeves. I like the box, but I think I'll go for the sleeves. I like to see what I'm looking for. It's too much like carts wit no end label. You have to search for a game to play. Who's idiotic idea was it to not put labels on ends of games? x_x (Guess I'll invest in a label maker. Not that that would even help with eReader cards. Just a sidetrack.)

So I'd go with sleeves if you don't mind carrying a binder with you. Though you'd also have to carry the Reader itself. Someone should have made a special case by now. Too bad the eReader's basically dead for the most part. I'd still like to se an updated SP version that's smaller and compact with more memory, multi-game saving and special eReader-2 cards. (Then they could move onto the later NES games. Maybe more advanced barcodes.)

You could also get a small card box to keep them in, and maybe some single card sleeves to protect them.

Nothing tricky here. Just make sure the package says somewhere, "No PVC" or "acid free."

When I finally get an e-reader that's what I plan on doing. I mean binders are nice and all, but I'd like to cafefully flip through my cards like an old school library card catalouge.

Maybe I'm just weird.

Such an easy shot that I refuse to even take it. :P

MAD CATZ makes an E-Reader case. I got one for $2 though I still haven't opened it. LOL

I use the standard PVC-free card sleeves. I bought a thin binder but the addition of the Pokémon Battle Cards has forced me to upgrade to an industrial-size one. I hope to eventually get all the cards available and there's quite a lot of them. @_@
