aaronmjr | 52 Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 First topic! I was told by a friend that there was a derelict World of Nintendo (WON) display case sitting in the back of a local store. I was acquaintances with the store owner, so I hit him up and struck a deal! It was pretty beat up, and missing some pieces but I was thrilled. I went to work carefully taking it apart, and cleaning it. Looking pretty good, but no lights, shelves, and missing the marquee! A month or so later I made a deal with a friend and got my hands on an original marquee! I picked up a fluorescent light fixture that was the same size as the original and wired that up. I picked up some brackets for the glass shelves, installed everything and it was more or less finished, so I loaded it with crap! Yes, there are non-Nintendo items inside as I don't have the largest collection. And one more after I decorated the top with some more display items. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phyrexian Hulk | 15 Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Awesome Display Case I've always wanted a World of Nintendo Case or sign even. I was able to pick up some display cases about 3 years ago when Hastings went bankrupt. Took some time to move and put together. Not as cool as a World of Nintendo but I"m happy with em. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrWunderful | 2,926 Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Love the case man ive been after one for a long time. On that light where the power cable enters the housing, is the cable protected from the metal? There should be a grommet, or the correct way is with a non-metalic 2 screw 1/2” connector. If not and your house isnt properly grounded it can cause a fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
