Atari 2600 and Vectrex cartridge cases?
I've made up many Atari 2600 cartridges, and I've never had a hard time finding
used carts to recycle for the casing. There are enough Pac-Man, ET, and Space Invaders
cartridges out there for decades of homemade carts. Besides, even if you had new cart
cases made up, you'd still need the boards from used carts anyway. Unless, of course,
someone makes those again too.
Vectrex, on the other hand, is a different beast. Not a lot of Vectrex carts out there.
Now, if you make up cases for those - I'll buy some - provided that someone sends me a
Vectrex, that is... <grin>
