    Breath Mints Cure Chronic Halitosis and DS Storage Probs

    Even with a plethora of pouches and accessories, some finicky folks can never find the perfect way to store their gear. Reader David dropped us a line to let us know what works for him. His criteria is pretty simple: He prefers not to have gaming logos all over it and no neoprene bulk. David, the floor is yours:

    1) The Tom Bihn Small Organizer Pouch - http://www.tombihn.com/page/001/PROD/ACC/TB0317 Tom Bihn make some pretty nice laptop cases, and their organizer pouch is no exception. The small measures: 7" x 5" (180 x 125 mm) and fits the DS Lite very snugly. That being said there is room for a few games, and I have also managed to stick my Nano in there at the same time.

    2) Eclipse mint boxes - http://www.wrigley.com/wrigley/products/products_eclipse.asp
    Eclipse make some nice mints in metal cases with fliptop lids. Once the mints were finished, I gave the inside a clean with tissue and compressed air and it now fits 9 DS games perfectly. It might fit 10, but I only have 9 games so I haven't tested 10. I have been contemplating taking the paint off, so it's a plain metal case, but I am not sure of the best and easiest way to do this.

    Carrying a Nano and a DS Lite? Together?! That isn't asking for a crack, but begging. Begging, David! Any other neat storage solutions in Kotaku-land?
