Hack a Smint Box to Hold 3 Nintendo DS Games

I found this neat little guide by Jim Younkin while surfing google, and recreated it here.

“I opened up an empty Smint box and realized it was the perfect size to hold 3 Nintendo DS games with a few simple modifications.”

It fits up to 3 DS games. I used peach although lemon Smints are tasty too.

Use you fingernail to pry up the tab a bit then pull the white inside box out.

Smints02
Cut some of the plastic to allow the games to fit. Don’t cut the bottom.

Smints03
The finished hack along with the precision cutting tool I used.

Smints05
Close the box and off you go. With 1 or 2 games it even rattles like mints!
