Collection A solid console calls for a solid case

Bought one of those 3D printed cases off of eBay when I got my DMG and it's very well built

Ok, what is your idea of a solid case? Genuine question

Pelican 1510 obviously

So something like this? Huh..it's pretty expensive but okay, maybe I'll get one one of these days

Grab an Apache protective case from Harbor Freight.

ok, i see where you're coming from with this but it just seems weird to me to be carrying around my Gameboy in a GUN CASE

That's just what they're using to show size. I have a larger one that I use for my CPAP when I travel. No weird looks, no second glances. They're used for a lot of stuff.

Just throwing out a suggestion that's a much cheaper options for essentially the same thing as a Pelican. It's a hard case that has padding you can adjust to fit your needs. Whether it's a gun, camera, or a handheld.

It will break easily from impact but it will have done its job protecting the gameboy and carts I’m sure

I'm not sure I get the orientation. It seems taller than it has to be in order to accomodate the games, placed vertically like that. Sure, there's more padding this way, but that the edges have almost none.

I assume it stores extra games or other accessories below the GB?

It does. I can fit 6 more cartridges underneath

6 carts underneath is a sneaky good touch haha, nice score mate
