Squashed UMDs

[anephric]

Hey-ho.

After going through the grief of replacing the UMD drive in my 1.00 JPN PSP I've realised that the problem wasn't the drive but my girlf packing every single UMD I own into the carry case and squashing them all slightly. Some of them just require the top window to be popped back into position but a lot of them are truly buggered. Aside from gluing them all back together, which is something I don't want to contemplate, is there something about akin to a DVD-RAM replacement cassette where I can just drop the actual disc from the UMD into a new cassette?

Please god say there is.

Well apparently this company offers such a service - I havent used them myself though and I dont know if you could just buy the cases from them, or if you would have to send them your games:-

Might be worth an email though

That's interesting, ta. I draw the line at shipping all my UMDs off to the States, but I'll hunt around the 'Bay and see if anyone's flogging UMD cassettes.

I never realised before how truly flimsy they are.

Hmph. Apparently the only fix, as no one sells replacement cases, is to hijack a demo UMD or something. Pants. Still, it seems only 3 UMDs have gone a bridge too far, so it looks like I'm gluin'.

Did you dump the girlfriend?

why not ask in the requests section for some demos n one is using, i'm sure there are plenty of guys on here who have the one that came with their psp's and aren't using it.

And Spider-Man 2, there is plenty of them kicking around.

Of course, me being me, I traded in my Spidey 2 whilst it was still worth summat

Surprised no 3rd party is selling replacement PSP caddies - don't think they're designed to be removed.
