Crafts Vs. Merchandise: Battle of the DS Game Cases

DS Game Pouch 1DS Game Pouch 2

Over at the NeoGaf forums, we pretty much melted at the idea of a gamer’s wife who has taken the time and effort to make a tiny messenger bag for one of her husband’s Nintendo DS cartridges. She even took the time to cross-stitch the legendary Mario’s features onto the flap of the little pouch, as the proud husband has pointed out to the world. Ah, you could just feel the love in there. Who wouldn’t want to have custom-made, one-of-a-kind game accessories or carry cases, after all?

However, since not everyone gets to be so lucky, someone else has pointed out in the same thread that a plastic DS case which can hold two cartridges instead, can be bought at the store.

Of course, some people have drawn up comparisons between the handmade gift laden with affection, and the store-bought plastic case which has been accused of being a heartless contraption, but then again, to each his own… and as I’ve said a while ago, not everyone gets to be so lucky and has a talented wife who appreciates your gaming habits.

Either way, what we do know is that we would LOVE to have either or both of those things. But first, we would now need to make our way to the nearest crafts store…
