TurboGrafx-16 Replacement Cases

[elprincipe | 142]

Hey all - I wondered if anyone knew of a good place to get replacement cases for TurboGrafx-16 games and cases for the many games that didn't come with a case. I see some on Etsy for $25 but that makes no sense to me as an option because you could just buy a cheap game for less than that and have a real case. I'd love to find a place to purchase some if anyone knows someone who has them available or makes them. Thanks!

Hi Alprincipe

This has been an ongoing problem for years. The best thing to do is to unfortunately just swap cases from cheap sport titles, as there aren't any other real alternatives.

Replicating them from plastic injections is too expensive, I was debating putting this together before I kept getting quotes for over 10k USD. People have had them 3D printed, but this takes a long time for each case. And last I heard those members didn't want to share the file.

Hope this helps.

Yeah I've looked many times before without success. Appreciate the reply! It's too bad nobody has made an investment in it, since a bunch of TurboChip games never came with cases to begin with and many of them were broken/thrown out over the years.

Yes, especially since the later released hucard games from TTI didn't include any jewel cases at all. Quite a terrible decision on their end, most people just use cheap Keith Courage cases or PCEngine ones.
