Crime City - $1, jewelcase release. This is an adventure game from Impressions that I hadn't heard of before. The game is from '93, but this is a 1995 jewelcase-only release by GT Interactive. It's a detective murder mystery game, as the name suggests; not my favorite thing, but Impressions made interesting games, so I got it because of that. Game not listed on IGN.
I also got, for $1 each, two fairly good-sized 3.5" floppy disk holders. I have several smaller ones that we'd been using since the '90s, but they were full and I had some other disks lying around, so I thought that it'd be nice to consolidate them into these. They've got lots of empty space, and don't look great, but definitely are a big improvement over several different cases and various disks lying around because I didn't have places for them all. (Yes, maybe I could get rid of the numerous disks that are either dead or useless now, all those home-made bookd disks and dead disks that I'd put stuff on and the like, but... nope, not going to do that. :) And at least many of the official game disks still work.) Unfortunately the shelves aren't tall enough to put 5 1/2" disks in, so I'll still need that separate case for my small-ish 5 1/2" disk collection, but this is better than what I had before, and for $2 total the price was low.
