Title: How do you store you loose TURBO games??
Post by: fsa on January 09, 2013, 02:12:18 PM
I was just wondering how others on this site is storing their loose copy of turbo games. I tend to use a regular CD case with printouts to make it look similar to the real cases. Sometimes I try to experiment to see different looks.

I don't buy loosies. Only CIB. I don't care for the OG box though.

There are many people here who put them is business card folders. However, I prefer to buy a CD case and make my own inserts so I can display them.

The only loose HuCards I have were either given to me or purchased by mistake. I have maybe a half dozen. I just put them in a stack...can't get much easier to store than that. A deck of HuCards.

Yes, but what type of product did you buy to keep them in stack formation?

A corner, Probably.

As for me, the 3 loose hucards I have have all been shoved into a TG case that i scraped the label off of.
I need a sparky label now...

I got a deck of hucards too.  About 15 loose hucards and they're just stored in a stack on my shelf.  These games are actually played more often since they are convenient to grab.

i keep all of my hus in a padded caselogic cassette tape case:

(http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y224/ElSeven/pcengine/hucase2_zps2e9593d3.jpg)

while its original purpose was to hold maybe 8-10 cassettes, i have repurposed it to hold ~50 hus w/ sleeves instead.  all the jewel cases & manuals are kept elsewhere, as this allows me to keep all my games within a small footprint.

i've tried using business card folders/wallets in the past, but they always ended up bowing/stretched due to the thickness of the hus.

It will be cool to have a poster size frame with hucard size sleeves in them so that you could slip the Huey's in them and have it hung on the wall.

Note to self: thoroughly clean games purchased from Bernie.  Possibly with bleach.

I thought that.  There was a CD one that I found, which you could have used to store the manual too, but they're out of production :(

Is it bad that's I'd love to see an art display with hu-cards.  I might just make ine in my basement and charge admission or something.

I store my HuCards in a Samsonite business card holder model 961505 .. You can buy them at your local Office Depot for $9.99 .. It can store up to 36 huey's .. Not bad at all for the price and it looks and feels of a good quality ..

I store them in clear, bulletproof, plastic cases. Graded of course. Because we all know, you aren't a collector unless all your games are graded.

This still doesn't explain why the mint, factory sealed copy of Ballistix that I purchased from Bernie smelled so...odd when I opened it. (http://junk.tg-16.com/images/pcgs.png)

I don't have a ton of loose HuCards, so I just keep them in one of those hard plastic boxes with a flip top lid that are normally used for stacks of sports/trading cards. The one I'm using isn't filled to the top, but I'm guessing it could hold 15-20. There are taller ones, though, so if I ever had a bunch of loose HuCards, I could easily switch to one that held more yet. I really love these plastic cases for game stuff; I also use them to store loose Game Boy/Game Boy Color games and memory cards.

Small 3-ring binder with sleeves for business cards. I think each sleeve holds 6 cards, if I recall correctly.
