great video, though I found it funny that you had the snes games like that, since the shelf below was game boy carts and about half the shelf area above them were empty. It would have been very feasible to just adnist the shelf down a notch and flip the games to the sides.
Great video, man. I also like the idea of using TheCoverProject with universal game cases and print-out case covers, though its much more expensive and takes up more shelf space.
Great video. Admittedly this is a really cheap idea, but you can also buy sheets of labels that are 100% removable by (Avery), Be sure the pack says removable & not permanent. Doing so allows you to use a printer to print tons of labels per sheet. A paper cutter or scissors and your set to go.
Not only do 32x cartridges lack an end label, but they came in card boxes (much like most Nintendo games) so it's very difficult to find them boxed. Rather strange when Master System and Mega Drive games had end labels and durable plastic cases. By the way Adam, did you back the Pier Solar HD Kickstarter?
Cool idea! I thought about doing something similar with my 64 games using artist's tape, which is essentially the same thing as painters tape - no residue leaving stickiness stuff. Painter's tape is probably cheaper than artist's tape, though :/ Great video! :D
make a nice end label on your computer and print it on a nice sticker... now here is the idea of the century, put the label onto the tape and cut tape to the size of the label and then sick it on, so you can take it off just like it is tape but looks like a nice sticker...
Yeah, I get it. I kinda have a similar problem with my Sega Saturn games, well, not similar but it has to do with custom made labels and covers. Those plastic cases of the saturn NTSC-U games are shit, and brake very easily, and are becoming more rare and expensive, so I rather buy a loose disc and print a cover myself in a generic DVD case that pay for a complete Saturn game, specially here in Brazil.
I like the idea, but that's a lot of blue. What about buying sticker sheets for your PC printer and print out some typed labels, in which you could put sweet logos on them? I know the sheets are not that expensive.
If you really wanted wanted to invest on replacing labels, I'd recommend thecoverproject(dot)net. They have a nice replacement printout for the UMK3 label you're missing if you had a label maker.
or you can make them covers, its a bit more expensive (around 1 per cover) but it looks great in shelves. if you are interested visit the cover project dot net
I know. Being a dick on the internet is fun! Seriously though, the painters tape idea was good. I'd probably have tried normal masking tape, but I think that might just stick too well.
