Seems kinda stupid... DVD & PSOne games come in protective cases already plus honestly, N64, SNES, and GBA style carts are pretty damn sturdy plus hard to majorly damage. I mean really their biggest problem is/was dust to hinder startup but am I the only one that remembers that a little good old fashioned breath would get them going with a little effort even if those games were already 20+ years old? Canned air made it even easier.

And yes I realize these options are just pennies per game but those pennies add up over time.

I've not watched the video but i'm thinking this is just about protecting the actual box the games come in. Especially SNES, NES, N64 and any others that don't use plastic cases.

I guess with plastic cases you would need to watch out for colour fading from the inserts due to them being in direct sunlight.

Yeah, the boxes can be pretty vulnerable. Cases sound like a good idea.

PS1 game jewel cases are pretty hard plastic and can be brittle, so they can crack, break, and scratch pretty easily. I don't keep an PS1 games out except like 1 or 2. Even those I replaced the case to a pristine one and keep them wrapped up.

How to protect your cases.........well you could look after them a bit better.

GreenRanger4004d ago

Just stack them on a shelf and they'll be fine.
You can remind yourself that they're there by saying 'I really need to sort out those boxes', one every six months.

Sega Saturn game cases were the worst. Cheap brittle plastic, with hinges! Good luck finding an old Saturn game with the hinges still intact...

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.

Profchaos3h ago

Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.

It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny

Armored Core VI?

Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.

Is something big coming soon to branch the story?

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).

I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now

I would say it does. The combat is a bit shit for todays standards but everything else is great.

It's worth a play through today.

Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.

darthv721d 14h ago

Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.
