VHS cases vary in dimnsions, so can't give one measure. As for the cases, I use Double wide DVD cases with 27 mm spine, and UGC sized covers fit nicely as the DVD cases are only half centimeter taller. |

I've made some custom VHS covers for SNES games a while back (here in Poland UGCs are out of the question). 3 for European games and one for a Japanese game. They're all based on the Japanese design though. They pretty much always had better artwork then the US/EUR, and it's easier to make vertical covers. Currently those are all the games I own, but more will come, when I get new games (currently hunting for Zelda:ALTTP PAL in English, which is somewhat a rarity in Poland).

It also depends on the manufacturer. I've got one double wide DVD case and the cart just slides and rattles all over the place. Besides I've already got a nice way to mod the VHS boxes to house SNES carts. And I've got a ton of VHS boxes as opposed to double wide DVD cases. |

If any of you want to go with VHS instead of double wide DVD cases. There's a freeware program called ezCoverMaker. Google it, it's easy to find. It has a VHS template where you just drag/drop the image you want to print and you're done. You can even use the covers formatted for UGCs here and it converts them to VHS. Not a 100% perfectly since the VHS spine is a bit wider, but the difference is minimal. Check my thread in the "Photo Gallery" for images. |
