Anywhere to buy game cases and case inserts?

I've been watching my sister's dog and it destroyed my SSBB case and case cover art insert thing; the dog also took a bite out of the manual.

Can you buy case and case inserts from Nintendo?

I don't think so. Maybe you can. Same thing happened to me when I first got SSBM. My dog tore it up.

Well, I know that you can buy the blank cases and manuals at Nintendo for $1 and $2, respectively. However, I'm mainly wondering if you can purchase the cover art inserts anywhere.

I'm pretty sure you could find a to scale good quality boxart online and print it out on Photo paper. I think someone else on wiichat said they did that once.

As stated above, but with corrected price and links:

The cases are available from Nintendo for $1.50 for a single case:
http://store.nintendo.com/webapp/wcs...ment=&dropOff=

The manuals are also available for $2:
http://store.nintendo.com/webapp/wcs...cyPreferenc e

You can get the cover art from www.thecoverproject.com and print it yourself.
Super Smash Brothers Brawl Cover

I have yet to see anywhere where you could just buy the cover art. That site is the next best thing.

Thanks. I think I'll do that. So I just open up the Jpeg and hit print? It'll be the right size and everything?

Don't spend $1.50 for the case from nintendo. You can buy white DVD cases here for about $.25 a piece depending on quanity.

No thanks. I only need one. Moreover, you really need to factor in the cost of shipping. To buy even the smallest pack (the 10 pack), it costs $8 to ship them. It only costs $2 to ship the case and manual from Nintendo. Since I'm getting the manual and thus have to pay shipping regardless, I might as well just get the case from them. Even if I wanted 10, it's still end up costing about the same going through Nintendo: $13.50 versus $10.50. Sure, it'd be $3 more, but then you'd have official Nintendo ones.

Still, I only need one, so it's far cheaper to go the Nintendo route. Plus, I get an official Nintendo one.
