Unorganized games are one problem that can hinder an NES collector. Read on to find out how you should keep your games stored.
I consider my storage boxes to be the best thing since sliced bread. Each of them can hold eighty games, assuming that it is just the carts (manuals and boxes should be kept seperately, anyways). My games are stacked ten high in eight columns. If you look at one face of the box, you can see forty games. Turn it 180 degrees to see the other forty games in the box.
Another important thing to remember about game storage is to sort your games alphabetically. This makes it a lot easier to find your games. Rather than spend five minutes each time you want to find a game, spend twenty to organize your games alphabetically. It will be a wise decision, believe me.
I also believe that games must always (always) be stored in sleeves. Sleeves prevent dust from reaching the connectors, and, as we all know, a dirty connector means a non-playable game. Avoid this by storing your games in their sleeves. Or, if you do not have sleeves, buy some off of eBay or Funcoland. I have heard that you can take as many sleeves as you want from Funcoland, I do not know if this is true but it's worth a shot.
Well, that's it for now. Do you have ideas on how games should be stored? Send 'em here! Please put game storage in the subject line.
