How do ya store ya carts?

[Angelic Lapras King]

You know, you game cartridges? How do you store them while insuring they don't catch the dust bug? Disc games are usually fine since they have their own cases, but with carts, those cardboard boxes won't last forever.

All my N64 and SNES games are in a plastic box. It has a lid, so hardly any dust can attack them. ^^ My GB games meanwhile have cases like the old GB games did to protect them.

I keep them in their original boxes, if I have them, which I now keep on shelves with all my other games. Games that come in cardboard boxes are annoying but they offer some level of protection at least and I can have them on display. Sega's carts come in nice durable plastic cases so there's no problem there. I store the loose carts I have in a drawer. Until a month ago I stored my whole game collection in large boxes but now, at last, I've invested in some shelves and drawers for it all.

I put mine in a dusty drawer in my room.

some of the systems and games are in my storage and only my N64 and NES are at my house. my stepson and I like to play the N64 some days.

My SNES games all have those little plastic covers that came with some games.

I have mine in cardboard boxes (those black things, right?) AND the original boxes if possible.

Like this:

I have a large dresser (is that what it is called? A chest of drawers up halfway and then a shelving unit the rest of the way to the top), and another chest of drawers in my room. I moved all my clothes to the chest of drawers and use the drawers in the dresser for classic game stuff. One drawer is all NES carts, another is SNES and N64, another is extra controllers and periphials, and yet another is old handheld consoles, memory cards, cables, demo discs and such. Since I rarely open the drawers, not much dust gets in there, and everything stays nice, away from moisture, away from sunlight fading issues. (I have dark green curtains and blinds in my room to keep out sunlight from fading anything else in my room).

So, yeah, that's how I store them. I like to keep the boxes the games came in mint if possible, so all of those are kept in storage boxes in the closet.

My N64 games are stored in a little wodden box with a lid on to keep them fresh.

I keep all my Game Boy/GBC cartridges in a plastic box sealed away in my chest of drawers (and as the first poster stated, it stops dust getting into them). Some of my GBA games live in a small string bag in the same drawer, and some others live inside my DS carry case (usually the ones that I love replaying the most). The Genesis cartridges are also in a plastic box, but it's kept in the loft since no one knows where the actual console got to

In an unorganized pile. lol
True, though.
