PSP's Case Cracking Problem. Be Aware.

[Accordion]

mine all seem fine, i get some cases from GAME for free(i know someone...), which are just slightly bigger than the actual umd.
kept my discs safe

[Video_freak]

mine arent broken, they just have a bunch of little scratches on them. i just hope i dont have little scratches on the actual UMD

[Apoklepz]

My UMD discs are fine, I've even taken them out of the case and cleaned them.... it's the cases that have gone out of wack. I've had to carefully crazy glue them back in place.

Where can I get these spare cases Accordian?

[Kramer]

damn i got the crack under the psp next too the screw.
oh well its not that noticable.

[Broadus]

I had a small crack that was on both the black covering, and the actual screen. The crack used to be so tiny that I hardly cared less that it was there, but now it's expanded all the way to the top of the casing and goes down on the screen, because it gets bigger every day.
I'd say it's about three centimeters long, now. I only have the one crack, which I think I actually got from taking it out of and putting it in that neoprene sleeve.
I don't care if the screen has a tiny crack, because it's hardly noticeable, but how can I stop a crack from expanding? I think I'll need to get it to a place that can repair it if I can't stop it from cracking even more in the same spot.

erm Apoklepz:
there may be some confusion...
i was talking about storage cases for whole UMDs in which to keep them safe, you should be able to get these from any game shop.
i think you were talking about the actual UMD disc housing which is part of the UMD, i dont know where to get those from.

[Video_freak]

thats what i thought you were saying, but i wasnt sure accordian boy. thanks for clearing it up

[Apoklepz]

Oh...alrighty then...thanks.
I guess nobody's thought about actually distributing more durable UMD housing, then. I think it would be a good idea...those crappy things do tend to loosen up and break open after some time.

[Video_freak]

$ony could make even more money off of that. you should write to them

[Apoklepz]

Oh hell no...They're already filthy rich pigs....
I'm talking about making them on my own, and selling them...even better huh?
I'll use the one off the demo disc which I still have in near mint condition and make a mold out of it. Then I'll just put some melted plastic in it and see how it comes out.

It might take a while to get a perfect shape since they're so tiny, but I'm sure I could pull it off.
Better yet, they'll be in different colors...but I'll probably start off with black.

Gotta get to work....There might be some money in this.
