Hi everyone so I've recently received my Gateway 3DS and I honestly think its really cool.
I've gotten a lot of inspiration and began to design mini covers for the SD card Adapters which holds micro SD cards. As we all know at the moment Gateway 3DS can only run one game at a time, so I've decided to have a little fun with it. I'm planning to print them out soon so I'll take some photos in the near future.

For the ones that might say:

"Why don't you just buy the games? They have covers on them anyways?"
Answer: I own these games already and I prefer to have them in a small compact case
or
"There's already cases that are made for 3DS games use that instead?
Answer AGAIN: I prefer to have them in a small compact case

Hope you like it and let me know what you think?

[Gurjas]

Did you use a special printer or special paper can you please tell me these look so amazing

 

[Firoy]

I do not own a gateway cart but this looks awesome

 

[luigi90210]

i would buy some if you sold them on ebay or something

 

[Rinnux]

This is exactly what I need!!! Please sell these on ebay!!

It depends if you want a matte or glossy finish some office supplies stores sell them.

Staples just sells matte sticker paper from what I know which is not glossy
http://www.staples.com/Staples-Sticker-Paper/product_490429
LD sells glossy sticker paper
http://www.ldproducts.com/Paper/OEM/Paper-Product/HYPSTICK100/1238-Product.html

You could try places like
Staples, Sears, Kmart, Walmart, Amazon any where that sells office supplies.
Just look for Sticker paper that can work with your printer if its inkjet and/or laser.

The work looks great! I personally wouldn't use it (because I only use one microSD card with my Gateway at the moment) but it seems pretty cool for other people.

 

[alirezay]

This looks better than 3ds cartridges!!!!

 

[scootr]

good idea was thinking I need away to track of whats on the sd card

 

[Rinnux]

Seriously though. Sell these on ebay. I will definitely buy them if you decide to sell.

 

[mkdms14]

Looks neat although the 1:1 still makes it inconvenient. Although the stickers on the mirco sd adapters still look pretty cool. I am waiting for the real hack(If it ever gets made if not oh well instead of play 50+ games I will only play the 5 games that I decided to buy for my 3ds.

 

[ninditsu]

Those look beautiful but it is on the large side.

That's what I went for anyway. It may look a little cheap but it's compact and its organized.

That CC is fake BTW

 

[Benshannon]

They look like Vita games which I thought they actually were at first sight.Which is kinda cool

Hi! I order the card holder like you ^^ . How did you resize it ?

 

[ninditsu]

If it helps, I found it on amazon, the seller is SDCardholder or something similar.

Now I feel like I hijacked your thread. Sorry. I had fun making this as well.

For dimension reference. That little slit where I put my label is 5.5x1.8cm

manhsoi What did I resize? I'm not sure what you're talking about.
