UncleBob's Table of Shame - Now a mini-contest of sorts for some free-ish cases!
« on: March 09, 2010, 12:40:24 AM »
I bought some Wii Games tonight.  I might have went overboard.  Just doing my part to support third parties.

The next time you feel like throwing away a bunch of money, I'll send you a pre-paid envelope that you can put the money in and just mail it back to me.

No Zack and Wiki - Sorry.

Actually, there's a Hollywood Video near by going out of business.  I got these for ten cents each.

Sadly, they're just empty cases (although some still have manuals in them...).
Looks like I won't have to worry about crappy Green cases for a long time. :)

Also not shown - three red New Super Mario Bros. Cases. :)

Well, now you don't seem so crazy and it also rules out suspicion of you either stealing games from Walmart or swiping cash from the register (honestly I was thinking that Walmart must be paying you really really well).

But now you can send me 2 white cases with WiiSports covers right!?

It's only crazy once you start bathing in them.

I'd be surprised and more than a little disappointed if UncleBob had never at least entertained the idea of bathing in his Nintendo collection before this point.

Is it hard to believe that Nintendo put out Nintendo bubble bath in the 80s?

Bob may have that.

I just need two cases (one for Wii Sports, one for Link's Crossbow Training).  I can print my own covers.  ;)

Yeah, I could use an extra white case for Wii Sports. I jacked one of the "double DVD" page-holders from one of my DVD's with a bonus DVD that I never intend to watch and stuck it in Wii Sports Resort. So Wii Sports and Wii Sports Resort are in the same case now. The case barely closes because of the insanely ginormous instruction manual.

I've got ten cents handy! I could also just draw you a dinosaur.

Here's what I'll do, since I have so many extra white DVD cases.

I will give away ten.  Call it a mini-type contest.
Here's what you have to do:
Post in this thread if you want a case or two.  No more than two cases per person.
Get a nice, padded envelope that will hold your case(s).  Address that envelope to yourself.  No need to add postage to this envelope - I'll cover that.
Now, take the self-addressed envelope, find another envelope to stick it in.
Add in something - anything - you think I'll like.  I'll still send you your case(s) regardless if I actually like what you've sent me or not - but be nice.  And surprise me.
Now, take the outer envelope and address it to me.

The first 5-10 people to reply (while the ten free cases last!) will have their case(s) held for two week.

Who's game?

I don't have Wii Sports covers printed out or anything... and I don't own a printer.
You can print covers from TheCoverProject.net.  They have a great selection of Wii Sports covers to choose from.  I typically get mine printed at Staples, but it's an hour drive and I don't plan on being there anytime soon.

Two cases down, 8 to go.
