Storage idea's for PC Engine HU-Card Games

[fitzsteve]

Hey Guys,

Looking to pick your brains.

I have a stack of Hu-Cards for my PC Engine and the rubber sleeves have gone a bit yellow/sticky.

I was wondering if anyone had an ingenious storage solution (other then inside the game cases of course)

I was thinking maybe some kind of folder like you keep collectors cards in?

Any input appreciated

Rolodex with transparent card sleeves? They'll be sideways though...

Nice idea but I'd prefer something flat. (or square ish)

Dia frame container?

Do you have am image of one of these, Google shows big freight containers/cages so we must know it as something else?

I have loads of small plastic wallets that are usually used to store things like Pokemon game cards that I got from the recycle bin here. I could send you some (I'll need to find them first) if you think they will fit?

I'll measure one of the cards, thanks mate.

Apparently I meant slides. Anyway, a picture is worth a thousand words:

Oooo, I like that

I don't think they'll fit in that will they?

I'm going to measure one tonight and see if I can get a similar sized drawer setup.

For a compact solution, you could have a look at these kind of business card holders:

(similar to what scrappysphinx suggested i think)

HuCards are very similar in size (tho a little thicker than) Business Cards...

i used to keep mine is a business card booklet.

not unlike this...

I used to keep mine in a starwars/match attax football card folder, it worked quite well, but they would sometimes fall out if holding the folder on my knee. Something like this : - http://i.ytimg.com/vi/EBh9Lu5Zq2k/maxresdefault.jpg

Digging up an old thread

Did you find a solution mate? If not I found those Pokemon card wallets i was talking about so can bring some with me to Cheltenham if you still need something?

 

[fitzsteve]

Hi Bud, yes please bring them. I still have a stack of HU Cards right here next to me lol. I got a nice wooden box at xmas so they might go in that for now. I'll bring the CoreGrafX to Geek Fest with me.

It's a very neat idea with the slides container, but I don't think they'll fit either. Luckily I don't have more than 1 loose hucard, but I'd be interested in any solution you come up with, Steve

If they are PCMCIA kind of size there are plenty of clear cases available for those on google, hard plastic and soft nylon type.
