Bubble Wrap and Games

Post by Startyde on Sat Jan 10, 2009 7:06 am

Not sure how many people are experts on bubble wrap, but I just read that bubble wrap can leave permanent marks in wood furnature because plasticides ooze off over time and interfere with the finish.

So I began to wonder, what would prolonged storeage do to games? I have stored my games in bubble wrap for years, the oldest of which look as new as the day I bought them, but now I'm thinking I should maybe consider other archival methods.

So I guess this topic is really about, what archiving methods do fellow SGH users use and what do they recommend?

For SNES games I use those plastic cases, they also fit genesis, NES and N64 games too (PS2, GC, Wii can fit 2 at a time but it's a little tight). After that I put them in boxes which I get from the dollar store.

VGA removable cases. They are very nice and totally worth it.
