Now I'm somewhat debating on getting rid of a bunch of cases for my junkier DS/3DS games since the carts themselves are so damn tiny. The discs for other games I can kinda justify keeping since, no matter what, it takes up a little more space. --- (\/)(\/)|-| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. ...

What do you mean by paper box case? Like the things that sometimes comes on the outside of the hard, plastic case?

I save boxes 100% of the time.
I still have the original box my copy of Baldur's Gate came in 20 years ago. green dragon posted... What do you mean by paper box case? Like the things that sometimes comes on the outside of the hard, plastic case? I'm assuming he means like if you buy a PC disc, and it comes in a paper sleeve rather than a plastic box. You see it often with cheaper games. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family ... Copied to Clipboard!

Case-in-point, I saved the box from my copy of Pokemon Crystal. While you *can* store them in those older packages, it doesn't make as much sense. --- (\/)(\/)|-| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. ...

When I was a kid, I threw out the cases for NES, SNES, N64 & GB. Once the nicer quality cases started to come out with discs, I started saving everything. So the only cardboard boxes Ive ever saved started with GBA.

Sort of similar to how the NES and SNES used to come in cardboard boxes, but had slipcovers (NES) or plastic caps (SNES) to protect the inside of the cartridges. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family ...

And GB carts used to have small, plastic cases (just large enough to encase the game and thick enough to afford protection) inside the box until they started cheaping out. But yeah, pretty much that, the box that games used to come in before they just started using cases. Or, conversely, just boxes when it's PC games in some cases. --- (\/)(\/)|-| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I started saving cases when games started coming on discs. As a kid, my GB(C)[A]/NES/SNES/N64 cases all went to the trash, although I regret today; well, kinda. They would just be in storage, but still!
I do save DS/3DS cases as well. --- Now Playing: Fortnite (XONE); Star Wars Battlefront II (XONE); Animal Crossing: New Leaf (3DS) [FC: 3884 0809 2271] ... Copied to Clipboard!

I save all of them. I can't remember if we threw out the TI-99/4A ones since we sold everything to a friend of the family 30 years ago, but I've never thrown out a box since. Heck, I even kept the plastic bags that the NES cartridges were in inside the box for the few games I bought new back then.

Well, for console games I have all the cases, but for phsyical PC games I either have the jewel case(but not box) or just its disc.
Im thinking of consolidating my collection and taking all of my random numbered sports games and putting them in a cd album and throwing away their case. But I will keep the cases for non generic games I like such as MGS2, 3, FFX, etc. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Everything. I too wish I kept more of the NES/SNES/GB boxes although I have a few. Pretty sure everything from GBA/N64/PS1 and newer is all complete to the best of my knowledge. I still have the boxes from the last few PC games I bought - Quake 4, Doom 3, Serious Sam 2, Half Life 2 (although I do my best for forget about that one)...

When I was a child, the game cartridges were in a plastic case, and placed in light cardboard boxes. I usually didn't save the boxes unless I needed the cardboard for a craft. So far, I think I've saved all the plastic ones (the CD, DVD, and Nintendo DS cartridge cases). However, I think there were 1 or 2 used games I bought without the case, so I didn't have a case to save.
