... Of course I don't mean that the plastic itself is blue, but that the case color theme (manual sidebar with the system name on it, end and back insert) are blue...
As for the foam blocks, which are there to keep the discs from falling out in those large cases, I don't really mind them (because they do do their job and keep the disc in place), but only a few of my Sega CD and Saturn games with cases have the foam blocks anyway, so it's not that big a deal.
As for PD Saga, yeah I don't know. I have some two disc games in those cases (Ground Zero Texas, Fahrenheit), and both discs are in holders, but I guess they didn't come up with a good solution for four discs. Maybe it wasn't used often enough to be worth a special case or something? I can only think of a couple of US Sega CD or Saturn games with more than two discs. PD Saga, I think the Scottie Pippen FMV basketball game on Sega CD, anything else?
As for new games, one new one...

Shining Soul II - $7, cart only - Not bad, I'd been thinking about getting this pretty much since it came out, but never quite had at the $20 or more prices I've always seen it at... finally found a cheap copy, so I picked it up. :) It's the slightly Diablo-ish, action-RPG Shining game.
