    Default Replacement Saturn game cases?

    Last night I exhaled on my Virtua Fighter 2 case and the hinge broke. So I cut a piece of plastic out of another broken CD jewelcase and superglued it to the case to bridge and reinforce the hinge at the break.

    These cases suck, and I have some other Saturn games with partial cases or broken and missing hinges. I wish there were something better, but for now I'd be satisfied if I could just find some more of these longbox cases. I've bought sports commons for a dollar or two at mom-and-pop game stores and cannibalized the cases for my non-sports games, but if there's an easier way to get replacement cases (preferably for a buck or less per) then I'd love to hear it.

    I bought a box of NBA Jam Extremes (I think it had 24) for $5 off ebay awhile back. You just need to watch for stuff like that. I used all my extra cases though fixing my Saturn and Sega CD cases.

    I think he has got the best idea on this one. Just try and buy a bunch of worthless old games and sac them to get the plastic cases you need.

    Don't store your games in them! Put those cases on the shelf and keep your games in a cd binder next to them. That way you can display the cases but never have to actually touch (and therefore break) them.

    BTW, I just won:
