I would be much more interested in Sega CD/Saturn cases before N64, SNES, or Game Gear.  Perhaps another vote is in order.  :P

If those will be elongated DVD cases they SO get my vote.

We already have a DVD option for Saturn Games. However, those that want to have an authentic Saturn collection (at lease in the USA) are going to want replicas of the larger Saturn jewel cases.
Once I do Sega Saturn, they WILL be identical to the original.  8)

That's good to hear.  I figured that clear jewel cases were out of the question.  I was under the impression that you were planning on something just like a DVD case, but large enough to fit the original manuals.  While I would have been ok with that, it would have requried a whole new template, so exact replicas is good news.
Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

If I can get a template for covers Ill pledge for 25

You don't really need a template since these are retail cases? So you can just get scans and clean them up...
Have you seen the covers I been making for genesis if I can get the template to work for these cases I'd use them as I like that look

Manuals don't fit DVD cases.

Template for these cases is the Genesis/Mega Drive clamshell (not UGC) template available in the template section.

Wouldn't the existing UGC case art for genesis games stretch to genesis size with minimal effort? I've done the reverse a few times & they have almost the same aspect ratio. As long as the gen cases are the same size as the original retail ones from back in the 90s, we might not even need a template for conversion.

What wingz said. No need to retemplate, just change the aspect ratio and you're good to. And yes they are the same size as the original cases.

I printed all my Genesis covers at the proper size for SEGA MASTER/GENESIS sized boxed. It's is easy to make these alterations in Photoshop. However, I provided the requested template for this users future covers.

So what games fit in to these cases?  I gathered Genesis, I saw someone say they hold famicom games as well (can anyone confirm that?). Do they hold master system and 32x games as well? :)
