Blumpkin:
A word of caution if you're going with snapping carts into place, you might want to consider gold and silver carts that could get scratched or chipped by such snaps.

You can always put something between the clips and cart.

SNES 2 sizes: US and PAL/JAP. (+ same un--normals as N64).
NES: All basicly same size widthwise at least.
Famicom: Carts vary hugely, but are about same width always (I think max variation was les than 2 mm).
NES has Aladdin Deck enhancer carts, I'll check the size tomorrow.

I have 6 non-standard NES cartridges by creator (Tengen, Color Dreams, Wisdom Tree, Epyx, AGCI, and Camerica).. they are all no wider than standard carts, but thickness varies and bulges at a few points, and the form factor is definitely different.
My Aladdin Deck Enhancer carts sadly disappeared in a move ages ago, but I can say from memory and a quick google search that they were not the same size (though there's only 7-8 of them)

So out of the NES carts, what is the thickest? And as for the clips, I see what you mean with carts like NES Zelda, what if even if you snap/ cut the clips off the cart will stay in place within the case?

Epyx? All three of theirs were licensed as far as I know.
Looking over them, the width all seems the same. Didn't check height. Depth, the Camericas look to be a tiny big deeper, all others smaller. I have one stack, a wisdom tree game, a color dreams game, and two camericas, they cancel each other out and all carts line up with their neighbors again.
