I've saw some European DS games, and their package is a bit thicker than that of US and Japanese games. Does it have any special feature in it? Of just an ordinary manual holder, a DS card holder and a GBA cart holder? (Why didn't they make a 8cm DVD holder also?)
Another question is: Does European DS games get exported at all? So far I've only seen 2 kinds of DS games: Metroid Prime Hunters demo (The PEGI 12+ game) and some games published by Ubisoft.
(Speaking of Ubisoft, my cousin got Bomberman (Uh, DS verison) yesterday. Why is it published by Ubisoft? It's supposed that Hudson should publish it itself!)

The European boxes are thicker because more often that not we have much thicker manuals (with multiple languages) as well as our Stars Catalogue bits and pieces.The Euro boxes have a really thick and chunky clip on the inside front of the box to keep this all in place.
It's a blessing...I can't tell you how many times I've tried to get the manual out of a GB/GBA game with extreme difficulty in getting it back in again.

LOL!
I usually read manuals once only (unless I really want to read them again). I remembered that I read my SSBM manual for many, many times... as a result, it is wearing out. Japanese GC game paperworks (boxes, manuals) aren't well protected. But I never have problems like yours.
I wish I'd finally get an European DS game... I want to have that cool white box!

Maybe I'll get a European game... if they get something the US doesn't get.

N64 manuals smell good, that's what I like about them...

^Yeah, but their HAVE to be yellow that's what I don't like about them. The new N64 cartriges smell good, but it goes, old manuals still keep that smell only if it was taken care of good.  yeah it remines me of the good old times... |
