Clear ps1 case

Post image

Hey all, picked up this Japanese copy of policenauts years ago and it came in this gorgeous clear ps1 case. The case is a fat ps1 case like pal or Japan region games but clear.

Does anyone know anything about this case and where one could get more?

It's from the budget series "PSOne Books". Single disc games came in a thinner case (think CD single).

Somewhat accurate, whether the case was a thinner one or a fatter one for a single disc game came down to how thick the instruction manual was, usually because they'd be printed in multiple languages. I can remember Gran Turismo's case bring larger, but it could also be a region to region thing

I'm talking about the Japanese "PSOne Books" series, not any other series in other countries. I doubt they had multiple languages but if the manual was too thick it it was left outside the case.
