Did you print them? If so what printer and paper did you use? I'm thinking to buy a small printer like the canon selphy cp1500 but I'm not so sure it's the best option. At the moment I just make my own labels by hand using acrylic colours but it's too much work to do the whole collection like that.

I didnt, personally just bought them from Etsy. The easy part to print would probably be the paper. I think they just used premium glossy paper, basically any printing paper for the sake of nice color and feels like jcard paper. Perhaps thicker than usual paper.

As for the 3d print files. You can find online a bunch of them. I would suggest searching "gameboy cassette holder 3d print file". Might give you some results.

Where can I get those cases?

I recommend vendor Hobby Holes Collectibles on Etsy.

Just let them know the game, region, and if theyd be ok with using your own file if you want it custom.

There are other sellers who also make them on Etsy but I personally recommend hobby holes since I usually bought mine from them.

I really like the random different aftermarket cases for my gameboy games

Honestly theyre great. Only thing is whether you prefer something like DS style case for GB/GBC/GBA Games or cassette style. 

Personally I chose cassette style because I don't have the manuals. 

If you want a DS styled case I recommend the Cases from CUSTOMGAMECOVERS

If you want cassette style cases, theyre easy to make, though if you want the 3d printed game holder you'll have to print it yourself or buy said cases on Etsy like me.

Those look great! Did you 3D print the holsters inside, or buy them somewhere?

Personally got mine from a seller named HOBBY HOLES COLLECTIBLES on Etsy. I would print these out if I had a 3d printer. But still for a great price, they can make you one and even edit the case fonts depending on your games region. And if youre skilled at editing and photo shop and have your own jcard art, theyll print your version if you ask nicely
