I like hucards small and ez to store I only collect loose hucards :-s I know it's silly but thats just me. any way by doing so it kind of hard the store them! but i found an way bussness card holder put in there put them in traper keeper and there you go. allso works for gameboy,neogeo,and other small carts!
Yeah I have a ton of loose hucards and I just put them in a 3 ring binder with card sleeves. My wife made me a cool cover for the case (upload pics later) and it stores them nicely next to my other complete games. The only thing is I need to get better sleeves, maybe side loading ones because if im not careful the hucards in the top sleeves will slide out of the binder.

I'd like to see a photo of your binder. I'll post pics of mine later tonight or tomorrow.
I use a 3-ring binder to store my Hus as well. I use a little bit of scotch tape on the top row to keep them from sliding out. :)

I like this idea. I've avoided loose HuCards so far simply because I couldn't think of a nice safe way to store them and didn't want them simply loose in a box. Maybe I'll give this a try. :P

That's crazy. I've never seen sleeves like that. I picked mine up at Target earlier this year. I think it was something like $5 for 10 sheets, which is probably more than I'll ever need. I have noticed that one or two of the sleeves that get a lot of use (Blazing Lazers, for example) are starting to tear in the top corner from me removing the card over and over. It hasn't become an issue yet, and I have a bunch of spare pages, so I'm not too worried about it.

Where did you get those pages from?

I use a Vaultz Media Binder with a zippered lock. It has handles for easy carrying. It is thick enough to stand on its own.

Here it is open. It has a mesh pocket where I keep my Kisado region adapter.

Ok Here's mine:

I think it looks really good, but because I'm particular about things, I'm going to reprint the inserts on high quality paper and cut the front and back to the shape of the HuCard
EDIT: The covers we made are available for download below:

I use a business card holder to store them. It works perfectly.
I stuck a really short video on youtube showing it.

Where do you get the plastic pages to put the cards in? I went looking for one the other day and could not find one. 20 years ago you could buy them at any department store for baseball cards and whatnot, but they are not as easy to find now.
I got mine not long ago at a Target store. I bet most office supply stores (office max, office depot, staples, etc), or even Walmart would also carry them.
Nice giant HuCard styled binder, hark. 8)
Thanks! :D

I buy used standard size CD cases for mine. I like making my own labels especially for the loose PC engine games so I can know the actual English name of the game.
I keep all of my HuCards loose or not in these UltraPro 4-Pocket collectors albums. I love the compact aspect of the format and the clunky CD cases totally negate that in my opinion. I keep the cases/manuals on hand but to be honest I'm tempted to throw away or sell the cases of my more common games.
Each albums holds 24 HuCards, the pages are sturdy, there are no rings, and the albums are about the height of a DVD case and just a little thicker so they fit well on a shelf with other games/movies. The 9 pocket binders just seem too big for me and these ones are only about $5 each.
/hucards.jpg
Are those for baseball cards or business cards?
They are for sports/trading cards. So the HuCards are slightly loose in the pockets but just enough to easily get them in and out.
I found this box at work (somebody threw, not stolen 8) ) I use it to put inside my loose hu cards.
But I found better the albums you put along the thread... =D>
Sorry for the photos!

I think a rolodex would be cool: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ROLODEX-INDEX-CARD-HOLDER-/150767531121?pt=UK_BOI_Office_Office_Supplies_Stationery_ET&hash=item231a71f471
Currently I have all my cards removed from their cases and under the TV, but now I want to figure out a way to make a massive replica HuCard that opens up to store the games. I mean like a 5ft HuCard. Any ideas?
This would be cool: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Volvo-Business-Card-Holder-Card-Case-white-metal-/120865646259?pt=Men_s_Accessories_UK&hash=item1c242766b3 One card only.
Bump - here's another idea:

Of course it's not guaranteed the Hueys would fit, but it would look nice. I've tried and tried to find one in white, but I don't think they exist.
What I like about that case is the proportions - if you could paint it white (maybe bleach it?) You could paint it up to look like a HuCard.
And this one for CDs and maybe HuCards too: http://www.amazon.co.uk/SLAPPA-CASE-PLATINUM-HOLDS-CDS/dp/B000FL9RQC/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1330683858&sr=8-3
I'll recycle this for the thousandth time (18-21 cards per case) (https://junk.tg-16.com/images/pcg0.png)

I have been looking for another case like this so I can have 1 for US games and 1 for Japan games but I haven't had any luck finding one. The Vaultz website doesn't even sell them.
I wonder if anyone has one of these HuCard cases?
/hucase.jpg
I snapped it from the PC Denjin manual. Apparently it's some limited edition present and the Japanese text there says there are four types including Bomberman, PC Denjin, Momotaro, and solid versions.
Must be very rare, I've never even seen one let alone a complete set!
I bet one of these days we'll see Thibaut selling them. I don't know how he finds this stuff, but he ends up with all sorts of craziness. That's pretty cool, btw. I would love a Bomberman one.

how pretty! and over with different reasons! why not get these things to my country?
couldn;t you get those if you were part of the hudson network, or something like that? the fan club that was advertised in the back of their game manuals.
So far, I just have mine in a plastic bin, that I picked up at Office Max for a couple bucks. I really like the album/binder ideas, though.

I liked coldb33r's solution, so I went out today and got some business card holders. The 4 row holders don't fit. I just assumed any business card holder would work, but stick with the three row ones. I think I'm actually going to switch to baseball card holders.

Ahhhh, the superfecta of top tier TurboGrafx gaming :)
I devised a system:

what a colorful display. With my (small, but growing!) collection of TG anything, I color code mine, like all the orange labels go together. Just looks nicer, even if the games/genres themselves aren't categorized that way. Or are they?

I used to do that, but the mods made fun of me. :(
Man you have all the hard to find games that I'm looking for. :P It sure beats my lowly acrylic cd cases that I'm currently using.
OMFG Vestcunt, you have PCE GAME :O

With business card holders it's a good idea to bring some hueys with you to test. I had a few random hucards and SF2 with me at OfficeMax trying to find some that would work, only half of them would fit.

Haha yeah, what is that? Just some mystery game? He posts a pic we can identify it at least...
Oh, that's the 4-in-1 with Super volleyball, King of Casino, Dodgeball, and that Tiger Heli sequel. It came with the case.
wow these have been some really cool ideas, I think im gonna try some of these.

lol and i am so jealous.
Business card holder's work good.
The HuCards I have I keep in an old Floppy Disk caddy. Works well enough. Would work better if I had more Hucards to fill it up.
My (moddest) collection is stored in a NES box.
This is a really old thread but I think I am gonna try and hunt something that looks like that vaults media bag. In the meantime I just realize that this animal crossing amiibo card holder can hold up to 100 amiibo cards but the hucards can also fit inside those pockets. I don't know how strong this album will last when taking hucards in and out but hey those hucards fit in there nicely and I think you can get this album quite easily now. I don't know if it's safe but I am now on the lookout for something better.

im digging that a lot! that looks really awesome
The baseball card sheets are a really good idea. I currently don't have any loose cards so far. I also don't have many games. I have been targeting the games with cases so far. I think if I only had a few loose games I would look into getting cases.
