Onion game Cases
larryinc64:
I was thinking for a temporary solution for storing Genesis games, what case would be best for storing them. N64 games are the closest in size, depending on how the tabs are placed. If it is like the official N64 cases, with tabs on the top, sides and bottom, but not on the curves, they should fit. I would stick with UGC for now, but I would like a place to store my manuals in the cases, with out them loose on the top. It probably would rattle around, but probably would be better tan in UGCs.

due to the resolution limitations of the 3D Printer he used.
I am having him make a special something, just for you, though. Wink
I'll pick it up when I meet with him, next week.

Standard Size Master System, Genesis, and 32X Game Carts will fit in my n64 Case, without modification.
However, they will be a bit loose, and the Cart Holding Tabs are a little bit too far apart to grab those carts.
Genesis and 32X Manuals will also fit in my n64 Case; it won't be perfect, but both Manual Tabs will grab the manual.
Master System Manuals are too short; but you could put them in an envelope, before placing them in the case.

This is mostly because European SNES Games are called Super Nintendo Games, even though they use the SFC Cart Shell, instead of the American SNES Cart Shell.
This confusion may cause a European to accidentally order the wrong Game Case; that would be Very Bad, what with the costs of shipping stuff overseas.
Not everyone can read English, and Google Translate isn't perfect. It can't translate words embedded in photos, and it doesn't always give accurate translations to plain text.
If I do this, then Super Gameboys (and possibly also the RetroGen and RetroPort) would have to be relegated to the Blank Cart Side case.

What about calling one "US SNES Case" and the other "EU SNES/SFC Case"?

That sucks.
kaysow:
+1 for excluding the megadrive hangtabs. they only made sense on store racks.
also, i'd say 99% of europeans DO speak english. it's mandatory in elementary school in every country i know of, and apart from the big dub-countries (france, spain, germany & italy) most of us watch tv & movies with subtitles. either way, couldn't you just add an extra image to the page for the NTSC-U/C snes case illustrating that rectangular cart? maybe even cross over a SFC/PAL cart if you wanna be explicit about it. tho i suspect most peopleinto retro gaming would be pretty thorough about their orders.
