State your 8-bit business: Banpresto's Famicom, Pac-Man business card holders

My Game & Watch card holder (Octopus, if you're wondering) has been showing its age for years now, and if it hadn't have been the hit of every card-exchange since E3 2005 (where it was first wide-eyed well-received by none less than Suda 51), I might have been more apt to retire it already.

It's looking like I won't have to fall too far from the 8-bit geek tree when and if I do, though, as Banpresto re-introduces its line of Famicom controller holders (detailed down to P2's mic volume slider), and just announces a line of 30th anniversary Pac-Man holders available in both cocktail table and game-screen designs. Start your eBay/import site scouring now.
