killamch89 Posted June 7, 2025 Posted June 7, 2025 Plastic jewel cases were standard, but many collectors swore by aftermarket sleeves to prevent scratches and dust. I remember sliding my favorite Final Fantasy VII disc into a snug, soft liner after each session—pure reassurance. Did you adopt a similar habit? What type of sleeves did you prefer, and where did you source them? Did you notice a tangible difference in disc longevity or loading times?
Scorpion Posted June 17, 2025 Posted June 17, 2025 Yes, I often kept my PS1 discs in protective sleeves to prevent scratches and damage. It helped preserve their quality over time, ensuring I could enjoy my games without issues. Keeping them safe felt like a small way to protect my gaming collection.
killamch89 Posted June 20, 2025 Author Posted June 20, 2025 I used the soft cloth sleeves that came with some CD cleaning kits - they were perfect for preventing micro-scratches during storage. The peace of mind was worth it, especially for expensive RPGs that took 60+ hours to complete.
