UPDATE: CAG case now in-stock
Use coupon code: cagexclusive


For those of you who haven't visited, PenguinUnited carries some pretty spiffy accessories. Well, I assume they're spiffy, I've only ordered their 24 pk DS card pouch...



Fellow CAGer dyreschlock posted a nice review of the case with some good pics:

And fellow CAGer Strell has nice things to say about it...
[quote name='Strell']Indeed. This thing works very nicely, I must say. I'd venture to say it holds them a little too snugly, but that's being overly picky.

The only complaint I have is that the back most page is oriented differently, but this is like complaining "the fourth apple I got had a stem on it, and the others didn't."

It really is a nice little case. Zips shut, holds 24 games in a small space, looks stylish, and has a cute little penguin logo that my gf likes. I might get 2 more at some point (yes, I am a nerd with that many games).

Anyway, really recommend it if you can pay a slight premium on something like a games case.[/quote]
I'm not sure what he's talking about the back page... both of the ones I ordered were fine.

Anywhoo, onto the deal. I finally broke down and ordered a pair of these the other day (after failing to find a coupon anywhere). Once I received them in the mail, I immedatly noticed that they were very high quality. I posted on another forum about them and shot an e-mail off to the nice folks at PenguinUnited.com thanking them for the awesome merchandise, mentioning my SPAM post and asking if they had a coupon code they'd like me to hand out as well.

They hooked me up with the coupon code: 'thankyoufrompenguin'. It gives you 12% off your order (pre-shipping). These cases are a deal at $10 and a steal at $8.80.

[quote name='Logain8955']Anyone know how to get the CAG branded case? Can't find it on the site.


Edit: Richard said in the other thread that they'll be available tomorrow.[/quote]

I'm waiting till then of course
 
The suspense! I'm sitting at my computer refreshing the Penguin United page every 5 minutes in hopes of the new case being there. :)

i need sleep but im doing the same thing
 
I'd say during the afternoon/evening time, but it's better safe than sorry, so I'll continue to stay up to date with everything.
 
Hi Guys,

We really don't mean to disappoint anyone, but the ONLY thing different about the CAG exclusive cases are three letters "CAG" Sealed on the top.

We would have made the whole case green, but it was hard to find a green fake leather.

Sorry if we disappointed everyone, we promise we will do better next time.

Best,

Richard

Thats still worth waiting a day if its the same price.

Though if its not up in a few hours I may have to just buy the normal one :(

Does anyone else have their eye on the Wii Pistol? It's calling my name me thinks.
 
[quote name='Link127']using the Paypal option, i dont see a spot for the coupon code[/quote]

You input the coupon code after signing in through paypal. It's near the end of the ordering process.

duh, it was at the bottom of the screen after you get back to the PU site...

:wall:
 
Yippee skippee! I was afraid I'd be too late to order myself 2 cases, but I wasn't! I'm psyched, these look faaaabulous. I'd wait for the CAG case, but... it might not have a penguin on it. And I love penguins.

Apparently they love me too since they united and made fantastic (and depressingly unprecedented) game card cases. Seriously, shouldn't this have occurred to one of the other big companies as well? Nobody wants to carry around 100 games in the big cases they come in (which, incidentally, are SUCH a waste, especially since they're wrapped in like 8 pounds of kevlar-grade plastic, and its not like any of the wrapping or packaging is recyclable).

Anyway, I'm excited for my cases! I ordered a silicon case for my DS as well and shall post on how that is later, when I receive it... I suspect it will be great as PU seems to make excellent products. Which are actually attractive. Not just non-ugly! Its like they know that some gamers are grown-ups with EYES... who may *not* be in love with Princess Peach and Mario!

Thanks on the coupon, too, by the way. I can verify that the cagexclusive code works in paypal (entered after you're directed to the PU/Yao site) for 12% off.
 
HI Guys,

We orginally want to do a nicer picture.. but heck.. don't want to keep you guys waiting so we just throw whatever we have up there.

This version of the DS game card cases are actually better in quality. THe materials are nicer and just overall a little nicer. In the future, we'll continously try to improve this product line.

Hi Guys,

Its ready! This version of the gamecard cases are improved, so it is made of better material. Sorry for the long wait!

Richard[/quote]Richard, I placed an order yesterday for the non-CAG case, and one just now for the CAG case. Would the two cases have the better material, or would it just be the new CAG case?
 
[quote name='Shoagie']Im just debating if i want one or two now...[/quote]

Well, just keep in mind all of the games you currently have, and all of the games you plan on getting. If that total is over 24, obviously get 2 :)
 
I had a problem with the last case I had because the zipper started to break. I can't zipper it now, it un does itself. I'm gonna contact them about that

I ordered 2 more as gifts, I hope they don't break

I guess i can get one because my ds case itself has room for 4 more, i dont see myself going over 28 anytime soon.
 
Oh man, I really hope I get this by Friday morning, because I'm leaving for two weeks that afternoon.

I chose the 1-2 day shipping, now I just have to cross my fingers. :pray:

In for 1
Order Total : 10.99
Shipping and Handling : 2.48
Discounts : 1.32
Grand Total : 12.15

Shipping was listed as $1.98 but charged $2.48?
 
How is the wiimote battery packs/chargers they have? I am thinking of getting the 2x charger + 4x battery bundle. Can anyone tell me if it's worth it or not?
 
Snagged 2. Had server problems with the Penguin shopping cart, so re-did my order paying through PayPal. Hopefully I didn't just triple-order...
