Kind of playing devil's advocate in a weird way here but for the most part "game cases" have almost always been crap. Most were just cardboard, not to mention Sega CD and Saturn cases were fragile as all Hell. Even standard CD jewel cases will break fairly easy if dropped. Outside of the genesis and Master System we didn't get anything durable till PS2, NGC, And XBOX. The only problem I have with case today is how they have the recycle emblem cut out that annoys the crap out of me and that's also present in DVDs and blurays. Digipacks to me are by far the worst. you start seeing white lines in the foldsafter one or two uses, shelf wear is extremely easy, if you get ones with the plastic to hold a CD the glue will not always stay and will take the inside artwork with it.
